I only once tried sitting on an SG 2016 at juru showroom. Very intimidating for a short person like me.

That thing is very big. Street Glide is 180k a piece, even if I can buy that the size wuu cannot tahan. Cool is one thing tp seksa tu no money cn buy. By mistake i tried to stand the bike but directly twist the handle, my goodness it's heavy. You have to balance the bike first then twist the handle.

Well if you're pendek as in having less than 6' of height it is quite challenging. I talk to one person he say vrod is not quite balanced as in it is slightly heavier to the left so for long distance it might not get well but it's just one person opinion. I myself have considered either SG or Vrod back then into my wishlist but really having HD as first big bike is too overkill on the learning curve and ofc financially wasn't that rock solid replying on side income which's just 4 digits. I'd rather invest in properties and glad that I bought cheaper bike because I have very few time to ride it really.

Well, after like more than 3k km riding my Vulcan S:

1. Reached speed 170kmh without a windshield but really it's not comfortable at that speed.

2. can go like 250km with a full tank of 8+ worth of petrol but highly recommend to fill up around 200km mark.

3. With custom exhaust on and LS2 FF370 helmet XXL size you need a good earplug.

4. It can lean but I wont dare more as this thing is a cruiser.

5. Have yet to enter service but I already have a Motul 7100 fully syn in mind. So too the cost to renew the bike's insurance not until September I will know. Estimated around RM700. (please correct me if i'm wrong)

This im not sure since I hardly pay attention to rpm meter, prolly around 4k. The road is busy nowadays can't really pay attention to the numbers and I'd rather enjoy the scenery cruising.

Thats one of the lightest Harley Touring bike range (production code FLXXXX) because already undergo the Rushmoore upgrade.

Before 2014, (even worst before change to twin cam FI engine) its heavier and very lousy in the terms of handling..

It's close to 5k rpm in 6th. Well, I have yet to test this myself but it's kinda dangerous thing to do. I dont even have a dashcam.

Back then really interested in harley but when I sit on one, that SG, tip toeing. Not suitable for my height. Asked a brother who rode a 48, he said bergetar nasib baik tak mandul.

I have this quite an interest in Vulcan 900 custom but when people say it got only 5 gears and yearning for an upshift when cruising. Haiz. Followed an SG 103 durin a trip to Terengganu Bike week, the torque wah so jealous.
