I love the setup of your bike. Just bought a LRS and this is the closest I've seen to my vision in my head. I'm late to the game, so this particular video was released 8 of 2020. My only concern is the stability of your camera. Immediately gave me motion sickness and I almost threw up. Not kidding. Thanks for the vid, extremely helpful. Beautiful LRS
I appreciate the compliment and the criticism as well. I’m actually getting ready to start getting a better camera set up. Everything I have filmed has just been on my iPhone in my hand
This is my dream bike man wow looks amazing with the risers and was wondering what pipes are those love the two into two classic look better then two into one wow man some day hopefully within the next two years I’ll have one def inspiration 🙏
So Rosy, love the content and your FXLRS - I’m taking mine in for the 1K service soon and I want to do the 6” pullbacks, I also have lower back issues on longer rides, I’m 6 foot tall so the hip flexors and the low back need a taller position. When you ride it now, did that make a big difference?
I'm split between two very different bikes. I love the looks of them both but haven't got the chance to ride the Low Rider S. The options are BMW R1250GS and the Low Rider S. I mostly ride through the city with occasional long trips of ~230 miles or so, planning on doing more, but mostly riding all day on those long days. My current bike is an BMW F650 GS (2003) and I can say it's really doing the job, but I want something bigger. Do you have any experience that would help me decide between the two? I will keep looking until next year but asking someone with a low rider S greatly helps.
I don’t think you can go wrong with either bike, it’s a personal choice. On a long trip I would think the BMW would kick the Lowrider to the curb unless you basically do what I ended up doing to make it super comfortable
Just stumbled across your channel. Been on my Low Rider S for about a month now. I'm thinking I need to raise my bars with some pullback. My hands go terribly numb after about 20 minutes of a long ride. May need to change the grips too. Im 5'9" how tall are you by the way? Curious about the comment about your legs and how the risers made you feel. Anyway. Keep up the good work.
I am 5 foot 10. Oddly enough I don’t have a problem with any numbness at all, I’ve definitely had it on other bikes. I have noticed that I have gone over 3000 miles now and it seems to run smoother down low, but around 80 miles an hour I get a vibration in my whole body
I would try a different oil than syn 3 if that’s what you’re using. Changing to bel ray convention took some of the vibration out of my motor. Also getting some weight on your bars will help. My phone makes a noticeable difference in vibes but a set of weighted bar ends or bar inserts would help more. I’m going to add the Kraus moto isolated risers to my low s. I’ve heard they help with vibes aswell because of where they change the isolator on the risers. Check them out!
It’s really tight, but it did go. My problem is they seem to be a little bit off in direction as compared to the front wheel. I’m going to disassemble them and do it again to make sure I didn’t screw something up
That is correct, it’s very tight. I’m only telling you about my experience, I think if they needed to go up another millimeter the wires might’ve broken
How’d those risers work out? I need to raise my bars for the same reason, my back, same bike. Was thinking 8-10” eventually but if 6.5 fit with no cables, that changes things!
Well, it was definitely a different feeling. It felt more fun and more open. The problem is it almost feels like it compresses your legs more because you’re sitting more upright. I have a crash bar coming this week to put my feet on to see if that really changes it
Check out the le pera Daytona 2 up. It’s the same style seat but has a large passenger pillion area. My daughter and girlfriend have rode 8 plus hours in a day with it!
Okay so I bought the risers. I have the same year bike and everything spec wise. But the risers don’t seem to go with the stock clamp and the stock bolts ended up bending for me. Do I need different bolts? You was mentioning something about a hardware store and then got sidetracked. I was hoping you was going to say some good news about needing different bolts. Maybe longer or shorter? Please get back to me on this, it would be highly highly appreciated brother!
Also when I tightened the bolts. The clamp didn’t even get close to flush with the riser and then my bolts bent a bit so I need new ones regardless. And there was so much space that the handlebars were just dangling there, not tight one bit.
Well it seems like you was trying to say go to the hardware store and get your bolts so I did so and that worked. Now my risers are just crooked for some reason. Not lined up with the tire.
I picked up bolts from Ace Hardware that worked perfectly. I believe they had longer threads and that worked. I think the stock ones at threads that don’t dig in deep enough.When I put them on they were completely flush, I had to loosen and re-tighten them multiple times to get them there. Keep up the good work you’ll get there
They are integrated into the license plate frame. I think I showed it in the first video. Honestly, I’m looking for a different turn signal solution, I’m told by a couple of buddies that they can barely see it
A street glide is less than 200lbs heavier than a stock low rider s. With everything you’ve added to the bike a street glide is about 120lbs more than your bike.
Hi drew, It’s actually somewhere around 200 but that’s kind of irrelevant. After about a year I decided you were right well, not you but you know what I mean. I actually went back to an ultra classic
Per Harley a Low S is 679 wet and a street glide is 829 wet making it 150lbs between the two. I’m not trying to be a jerk but you have over 2k followers. So stating 300 or 400lbs might pull someone out of the market of a street glide when it was possibly a better choice for them. If you were referring to an ultra instead of a street glide you’re looking at a difference of 240lb but the height and location of the weight makes an ultra seem even heavier. Why did you sell your low s? I have one and love it.
Actually, the wet weight difference between a Electra glide ultra classic and a low rider S Is 238 pounds. I added about a total of 10 pounds net weight after replacing the exhaust and losing 12 pounds. I do get your point, And the irony is that I went back to an ultra classic after year of the low rider S
The 6.5 inch riser extensions barely made it. I don’t think they could have gone even a 1/4 taller without taking it completely apart. That being said, I did make it work without any wire extensions. I was very careful to not screw up the wiring
@@rosyrosenblum9823 I see that you didn’t have the FXLRS long after this video, so you didn’t really have a long-term review of it. Trust me though it’s better to spend a few hours cutting/splicing wires and making sure no wires/cables are being pulled to tight, rather then waiting on the side of the road for a tow.
Bike looks great except for those saddle bags why do people put those on a motorcycle when the bike dose not come with them if u want saddle bags well the get yourself a road king
OK that was a wise ass response. I like the look of saddlebags on a bike, I’ve had multiple touring bikes before. I wanted to Lowrider S to knock off a couple of hundred pounds and get better handling and ground clearance. That’s why it’s sport touring on a budget, not here’s another Dyna bro build
I put a tour pack on mine. It works great for grocery runs, 500 mile a day trips and keeping myself and my passenger from becoming fatigued. I can also remove it in 5 seconds and I’m the only person I’ve seen with a low s with a tour pack in my town.

Great set up man. One of the better ones I've seen. I know color matching that fairing was probably a headache.
Luckily my friends at Carillo’s auto body did it for me. If you’re in California, look them up
Awesome bike, great mods.
Subbed.
I appreciate it, look forward to you watching the Roadglide ST videos I’m doing now
This is my dream bike man wow looks amazing with the risers and was wondering what pipes are those love the two into two classic look better then two into one wow man some day hopefully within the next two years I’ll have one def inspiration 🙏
The pipes are Vance and Hines. I wish you the best of luck getting your dream boy, I love the Low Rider S
So Rosy, love the content and your FXLRS - I’m taking mine in for the 1K service soon and I want to do the 6” pullbacks, I also have lower back issues on longer rides, I’m 6 foot tall so the hip flexors and the low back need a taller position. When you ride it now, did that make a big difference?
Between adding the forward controls, the 6 1/2 inch risers and the step up seat it was great
They always say you’ll need cables but I put 12in tbars on my bike with stock cables.
Yeah, I’m doing risers on my road glide as tea right now, different sources say different things about what you will need
Looks good, your blinker light no longer hit the fairing.
Four dollars fixed the problem

Oh one other thing, you definitely feel taller with the risers. It’s going to take some getting used to
Appreciate the feedback! Upright and open sounds like a dream, you’ve inspired me to rethink my risers. Love your bike and mods, keep up the videos!
Rosy, what about forward controls? Sorry if I missed it but are you still with the mids?
Hey Rosy Rosenblum, have you had a chance to ride someone on that step up seat and if so how was their experience.
It’s fine for about an hour after that she started complaining
Check out the le pera Daytona 2 up. It’s the same style seat but has a large passenger pillion area. My daughter and girlfriend have rode 8 plus hours in a day with it!
So how is the wind protection any Buffeting? On the Helmet
It was pretty close to perfect
Brother can you pls Forward a Link for Sissy bar with rack..Muchas Gracias.
It’s an Edward Richie sissy bar. I bought it on Etsy.com
I went with the HD setup and with seat I got a Sportglide seat..

@@rosyrosenblum9823 yes that’s where I went to get mine also. Nice vid brother, thanks for the help.
Could You Share the part Number for Fairing Pls
Just check out RWD TXR fairing. It will take you right to the website
That fairing is 800 bucks! Looks awesome, but no way in hell is that a "budget" fairing lol.
That’s retail, I got a very nice price when I called and picked it up myself. I promised I wouldn’t see how much, but Russ gave me a really good deal
No rear turn signals?
They are integrated into the license plate frame. I think I showed it in the first video. Honestly, I’m looking for a different turn signal solution, I’m told by a couple of buddies that they can barely see it
Are you going to post a video about the clearview shield?
I need to get a go pro or something similar so I can do an on bike video. What I can say is that it made all the difference and that I’m loving it
@@rosyrosenblum9823 Thanks, I'm going to order 1 then.
Nice bike but how is this ‘sport touring’ or ‘on a budget’?
Pretty much everything I did on the bike was the least expensive quality way to do it by yourself. I didn’t say it was being done for free ha ha
How tall are you?
5’10”
What kind of saddlebags are those

Don’t do this! If you’re installing taller risers/handlebars use wire extensions or you will pull the pins out.
