    I picked up a 2022 road glide ST in July and absolutely love the bike! Was riding a soft tail and what a difference! Road Glide is heavier and wider but feels so much more balanced. I would never put my soft tail into turns like I do with the road glide. Just a fun bike to ride on short or long trips.

      I'm jealous, those new ST's look amazing. Definitely would be a better start point for my taste. Hopefully I get to test one out one day

    I've got a 2020 road king with a se stage 3 119 big bore kit on it. It's putting out 105hp and 127tq. I just ordered a 475 cam for it and I'm excited to see what I get out of it. Especially considering those cams are technically built for 11:1 compression motors anyway. Once I get it installed and dynoed I'll post the numbers up if your interested. The 475 cams just sound absolutely amazing!!!

    • @BeardyMoto
      @BeardyMoto  ปีที่แล้ว

      Definitely let me know, I've never had mine on the dyno but I've heard the 475 makes some pretty good numbers

      @@BeardyMoto yes sir on a stock 114 or 107 with with a breather and exhaust they get a 100hp idk what kinda tq though. But I'm pretty stoked. I'm literally just waiting g on the cams to get here. Should be any day now. I love the bike BTW. I set my road king up with 14 in tee bars as well. I'm the only rk in the area running tees around where I'm at.

    M8 is a single cam. I just noticed I heard cams a couple times and really most would think these m8s are still a two cam but these are a single cam engine. If you ever want a good tune come see me I am a certified Harley service advisor and I work with some of the best technicians/tuners in the business.

    Love the bike bro im thinkin of the red shift 468 cam for my 21 road glide special bassani 2into1 power vision tune. How tall is the klockwerks windshield? Have you thought of mid bend bars to maybe see the gauges ect better? Bike sounds beast.

    • @BeardyMoto
      @BeardyMoto  ปีที่แล้ว

      i believe the windshield i got was the 9", it was that happy medium, not too short or tall. I can actually adjust my gauges which is pretty cool, i can make them higher and see everything and have a real performance style setup but i like to see my screen lol

    Don't do a turbo! The few people I know who have turbos have to trailer their bikes anywhere. They can ride local and small distance road trips, but it produces so much heat it would destroy the engine if you actual "toured" with it. Which in my opinion is what it is. Leave it like it is! Looks good bud! Ride that crap cross country! haha

      @@BeardyMoto Fairing Power Port.
      The port is energized while the ignition switch is in the IGNITION or ACCESSORY position. Powering accessories for an extended time while the engine is not running drains the battery.
      The maximum current draw for all connected accessories is 20 A. This current draw includes the total current for all power ports and any other installed accessories. If excessive current is detected, the P&A fuse will fail and the accessories will stop operating until the overcurrent situation has been corrected (such as when a faulty or high powered accessory has been removed) and the fuse has been replaced.
      Items charging in the power port may cause interference with radio reception. These ports can be used to power or charge 12 VDC accessories with a standard automotive power connector. The USB port for media devices is in the right side compartment.
