Oooo liquid cooling. Took'em what, 30 years after the metrics, to get to liquid cooling? Better late than never.
I'm not sure of the implication. Had H-D wanted to do liquid cooling sooner, they would have, but they knew customers would balk. The idea was to keep it as traditional as possible for as long as possible. Like many things with ICE, emissions reqs finally won out. However, you'll note how much the motor co is trying to conceal the radiator(s).
You guys are on top of it . All great products with the build
Great video man!
I enjoyed it BIG TIME
Thanks for sharing 👊
I think the 2024 RG CVO ST 25th anniversary is the holy Grail for the 24 model year! Awesome looking bike!
I think so too!
The back end esthetically could be better but ya.
@@carminecalucciCVO Specifically the Copperhead!
Legendary Orange paint job on the ST = WOW Factor
Matt is the Man. He did my 2022 Limited CVO 💪🏽💪🏽
Matt is definitely the man when it comes to all of the performance engine mods for Harley Davidsons. Super Talented, a wealth of knowledge, aims to please the customer, and humble. Nobody, as a customer, could possibly want more than what Matt has to offer. ML&R.
My 01 929RR made 128 back in the day. This Hog is gonna move!!!! 😳😳👍👍👍
Gorgeous looking bike. Happy 4th of July! Ken and your family and your kitty cats and your team
Same to you!
The incorporated the radiator awesomely.just a killer bike but the money for it and upgrades is insane....
What a curve 💪….that thing must boogie
Harley Davidson is the Apple Iphone of bikes, they give you new tech one bit at a time to keep you buying the latest and greatest.
No!!
Harley are like land line, rotary phone!! Any cell phone is super modern compared to the Harley design motors.
My guess is that you are a young ignorant person?
Wow! I'll bet it's a Beast!!!
Harleys are like David hasselhoff...... Cool in yhe 80s.....but☝️....love your videos Ken, keep em coming please
It's nice to know my CVO ST has even more potential...
The FXR dude, cool...
Rear cylinder receives the coolant 1st. He described it in reverse.
oh my God that torque curve is amazing
Right? That's what really caught my eye!! The first thing I thought was "man that torque curve comes in early and rides it out". The second thing I was thinking is, "I wonder if most people realize that horsepower is great but it's the torque that you feel"?? The torque is what sets you back in the seat and wants to flip you off the back all while raising the front end. 😂😂😂 And hell, with a bike like that, the earlier it comes in the better if you ask me!!! All good stuff man!!!!
@@ar2043 honestly i dont think a lot of people know that.. all the marketing constantly goes on about max hp. With a torque curve like this that bike would tear your arms out from idle and keep doing it till redline.
I remember when I owned an Iron head, the oil pan would literally roast your nuts, I think if Harley Davidson made one of these engines completely liquid cooled, you would not only see an improvement with reliability but massive performance gains.
Ya but nobody wants a hinda or they'd go buy a honda
Just got off my evo softail.
In terrible traffic!!
Oil tank is so hot you can’t touch it!!
All I wanted to do is get moving!!! lol
I hate suv drivers, doing 10 mph.
Site seeing!!🤬
@@whatyoumakeofit6635
Honda has no soul!
Zero!!
@@metalted6128 wrong 😂😂😂 seen the sales numbers 😂😂 Harley is done .....and Honda sales are sky high 😂😂 HD are very over priced a.f. especially the cvo's 😂
@whatyoumakeofit6635 foolishness. Nothing beats liquid cooled bro. You have better temperature control. Air cooled is 1800s trash even if it works.
Awesome video but your guy gave wrong info. Liquid cooled heads 2014 and the cooling flow goes rear cylinder first then front cylinder.
Yeah......when he said flow was front to rear, that didn't make sense. I suppose the Cylinder cooling fins acts as a radiator.
Your right it goes into the hottest first rear cylinder then front to return.. Thats why I work on my own stuff lol
Still impressive.. the hottest rear cylinder than to the front… why does the engine have both liquid and oil cooling, I’m very impressed
I love my 1974 BMW R90 65 HP! Gets me where I’m going with plenty of smiles.
Its all about the feeling ❤
This guy is great - I learned a ton about hd performance. I wonder if the VVT on the 121 is leaving any hp on the table.
Dreamy! 🤙
💯
No restrictions!🤘
Such a badass bike! And great power, with a stage 2 cam it should be able to make close to 150hp
Very cool! Happy Fourth of July everybody!
It's kind of weird to hear Ken talking about Brock's and BST wheels and ceramic bearings and stuff!!!
It's like all the stuff I hear on some of my "superbike" channels. Very cool indeed.
Up next, all of Kaplans vintage restorations are now going to come with a battery tender lead, gold chain, ethanol free fuel AND ceramic wheel bearings!!! Ha! Yay!! 🤣🇺🇸🇺🇸🦅🦅
Curious if I want to build a bike like this 143" with all the bells and whistles what's the price tag I'm looking to have you build it for me?
The Indian challenger is a very reliable liquid cool motor . Is this going to be as reliable ?
"Curly inc" in burns harbor Indiana has built a bike with this engine in it. Lots and lots and lots of money.
oh shit its matt!! dude built my 2022 ST! that mans the goat
So your Harley-Davidson road, glide got the 121 liquid cool. That must mean it doesn't run hot. What an amazing road! Glide not like the other Harleys like mine to 2011. She runs hot. What a great bike! Congratulations, Ken is that pig with the flags airbrushed? That's a really good test on the diner wow! Stage 4 131 wow! Wow! The sky you found is the next Grand wizard Ken, that motorcycle with the 131 stage 5 150 horsepower I'm sorry Ken but you made me say it rip the foundations out of the house. That bike is intense
graphic on this side is actually a Harley-Davidson decal from the factory it comes with it
@@KaplanCyclesThat's a really nice CVO it came liquid cool
Impressive knowledge of the V-twin Harley motor. I'll bet it rips
Wouldn’t it make more sense to have coolant flow through the rear head first? Like why send hot coolant to the head that gets less air second?
Does the new Road Glide CVO ST feel faster than the Pan America? Does it handle the twisties better?
Don’t forget it’s still a bagger.
I'll stick with my '89 Sportster that I had since 1989 and was rebuilt in 1992. It works just fine. I have a '91 Sportster as backup now,
Who asked you?
I bet the chop on that thing is nuts 🥜!
my 131 is making 160 hp 155 torque she is a bad mofo great video
cant wait to visit your bike museum one of these days.
Right on!
Small pistons my boy said they are unreliable
I bought a new CVO st and it's better than I expected.
That's just great stuff!!!!
Bad ass ,im not a big harley guy but im impressed with that 143
Only took harley since the 80s to catch up with the entire industry
When will Captain America launch that Hog!!!! #toecutter
Did Harley beef up the primary drive/final drive?
Always was the weak point.
The answer is no…i had to retro all my Harley’s to dry primary with delcron case reinforcement…and when you step up the HP you should be swapin the oil pump drive gear too …no amount of balancing cancels the secondary forces so the oil pump drive gear starts to wear when the crank walks…Harley’s are awesome but they weren’t designed with “Big power “ in mind…true you can make them scream, but they wear out 3 times as fast and still can’t keep up with a stock MT09 😂
If you combine a Harley Davidson engine with a Toyota CVT transmission, it will create the best product!
Do tell
Well, awesome bike for sure👍 but the price tag to build one of these bikes for $15,000 plus on top of with the bike cost it’s a lot of money🤔
What was done to the cvo st to get those number????
Pipe & tuner, thats all
☝🏼🔥
Rock on
Gotti ❤️ it
You explained it wrong on how the cooling works. The cooling goes to the back jug first then to the front jug and then back to the radiator.
You guys doing anything with the 121 vvt motors
Yes
@@KaplanCycles like what I’m in north haven ct and have a 23 cvo streetglide is there something you can do to eliminate the governer
Rock On
Happy 4th everyone at Kaplan Cycles 🇺🇸🚲💯
You have to turbo that
That's an excellent idea
I'm still super proud of my GS 😎 123 horsepower with only 1200 cc's... Smooth, quiet, efficient... Five engine maps... On the fly push button suspension settings, For solo riding, passengers or extra gear... Less than half price😂 final stage global domination machine 🪄 I know. I know even Ken Kaplan is jealous😅
I like all bikes Jap or American it doesn't matter but comparing a Harley Davidson to a metric Superbike is like comparing a Ford F-450 to Acura supercar
🐝🏁 Video 👍
So you buy it new and then have to get rid of all H-D parts just to make 120 HP? Doesn’t seem financially exciting to me.. 😢
Monster garage in ct
This bike should come with ohlins for that price tag. I get showa is better then stock but their no ohlins. Beautiful bike tho
👍
Well, don't see fossil fuel going anywhere any time soon!👊🏻😂

The liquid cooling basically gives the new 121ci engine the power increases and potential over the 131ci engine. It's not rocket science.
Very impressive Harleys are the most attractive looking motorcycles ever plus the sound is amazing along with the ride, Everything else looks like a pile of crap next to a Harley even a Indian does not do it for most people.
One man’s trash is another’s treasure
I want one 😂
The more work you do to the engine the more unreliable the engine becomes! I can see if your racing the bike but for regular everyday ride stock is plenty of power with more reliability. All this becomes talk look how much I got in my bike look what I did to it look how much horsepower and torque it has yippee yay I’m broke and broken down. Would not be able to go to higher compression without liquid cooling it. They’re at their limits
Thank you. Liquid cooling allows precision engine temperature control. I hate air-cooled bikes. It's 2024 man.
🫡🇺🇸❣️
God knows I can break itt
What I won't
Yep I will
I guess I don't understand why people want to put all that money and horsepower in a Touring bike
Indian made them build this
Don't care for the Composit / plastic oil pan / drain plugs on the 121ST
Carbon fiber wheels on a Harley ???? Yeah let’s save 5 lbs on a bike that already weighs as much as 68 VW beetle 😂😂
12 lbs.
Please pay attention!!
@@metalted6128 🫡😂
@@metalted6128 objectively hilarious
It wont be reliable just like the rest of HD bikes.
California ruins everything
Mention the issues with hilding moisture , milkshake oil?
Happy Independence Day! The Harley nay sayers just don't get it and never will.🤏🤣👏👏👏
Very. Nice fantastic bike!!!!!! Professional 🇳🇱👏🫡
