I have this very bike the 2018 Heritage but 114. I don't get any vibration you speak of. that is really weird you making a big deal of it. something is not right. I was shocked when you said it. smoothest Harley I have ever ridden. glad they went with the engine directly to the frame vs the rubber mounting. great bike.
Rode the new Heritage (as well as the Fat Bob) at a demo event a few weeks back. The Heritage I rode was also the 107 but in the Twisted Cherry paint. I don't recall any noticeable vibration in the handle bars on the one I rode. Was a great ride for sure. Thanks for the vid!
I went into Harley 2 months ago and twice a week i test rode every bike... Some bikes i rode 2 & 3 times. I went into harley wanting a Lowrider or Street Glide, for me a Lowrider but since my wife likes to ride with me on the weekends i was thinking Street Glide. But 2 months later I bought the Silver 2018 Heritage Classic showed here. I even tried the older bikes. This one hands down best over all handling bike for all scenario's. You need to go into Harley with a open mind and try everything and put all factors into buying a bike.
bought this bike in september of 18, did a stage 4 upgrade. Best bike I have ever ridden. Amazing power, great sound, and great in corners. This new frame is night and day from the old one. I can lean down through the floorboards and he just holds the corner.
I bought the 107 in Twisted Cherry. I can confirm, especially when you start the motor, that you can feel that M8 beneath you, but I do not notice much vibration especially below the 2500 RPM range which is were you are in 6th gear. I have yet to take it on any long trips. Now that it's November and pretty crappy out, guess I'll need to wait until next spring now.
The '18 Heritage feels really compact compared to the previous (real) Softail Heritage. And is also ridiculously priced at 19 grand! Granted, it's lighter and more maneuverable than a Road King (which is the same exact price), but 19 grand???
You're having a Bikegasm .. "Oh yeah.. oh yeah" :D lol And you're the first video I have watched that comments about the engine being rough ? Every other video talks about how smooth it is
Its a non issue, I was coming off my Streetglide. Someone who is sensitive to light mid frequency vibration may feel some discomfort. Nothing that cant be remedied by a number of ways.
great video. your description of get around town and long distance helped a lot - that's what i am looking for. thinking about trading in my 05 low rider for the 18 heritage.
Love their new line of bikes. Just not the $$$. I refuse to pay car prices for a motorcycle. Apparently, I am not alone in this thinking which is why HD stock is dropping rapidly every day and now they are beginning to close a plant, Next will be dealerships across the land. Probably should grab an HD while they are still here......Good vid bro glad you enjoyed the new Heritage.
J Smith you at like Harley-Davidson the most expensive bikes out there go price a new Goldwing or Ducati help Suzuki and Honda have super sports bikes or up in the high 18 teens BMW
Must be something wrong with that bike, my Heritage has the least amount of vibration I’ve ever experienced. And you must have misspoken about it not being a ”premium” bike, because it truly is premium.

Best handling HD I have ever rode.
(and I've ridden a bunch!!!) Super impressive in the corners.
Good for scratching but the floor boards ground too soon.

Deadwood Green.. love it. Can't go wrong with a Heritage.

Nice! It was a great ride for me too, congrats! 🤙
@@Surpluzz Thanks! Favorite part is stripping the windshield and bags off for a more tradition street look.
I love your enthusiasm and it sounds like you realllly liked it! My dad just got a 2017 Heritage not long ago and he loves it!
Harley Dave Thanks! I WAS excited, I had never ridden one before and I was surprised to say the least, thanks for watching!

I have a114 and don't feel hardly any vibration.
@@benjaminmeyers38 they vibe just enough to let you know the motor is running
I didn't think I could want a Heritage more than I did, "until I watch this review!" LOL
Ed Black glad you liked the vid. I know I sure liked the bike.
Fantastic bikes I love mine.
Got too Say I rode that bike in Sturgis : Beautifull the way She Rides....That and The new Deluxe softail...
Dean T Maltese I think the reason I loved it so much is, at that time, the bob wasnt with me. Lol Thanks for watching!
I just bought a 2018 road king, its heaven...
just bought a heritage and it is an awesome bike! great review man!!

Dario C. Cruz I guess lighter and more maneuverable doesn't necessarily mean cheaper. 😁
It's Harley-Davidson, bud. Ain't nothin' cheap or cheaper :-)
very worth it though

And you're the first video I have watched that comments about the engine being rough ? Every other video talks about how smooth it is
I have the 114 and it is smooth. Too me it is. That's my opinion though.
Great video, buddy! I have been a Yamaha rider my whole life, but this H-D has me thinking about trading in for this bike. Gave you a like and a sub!
Awesome bud, thanks! Nothin wrong with a yama hammer. Respect.
Did you test the Sport Glide ?
I am split between the Heritage & Sport Glide
Is there any buffeting from the windshield?
Homerun harley!
You are the 1st review i've seen that says there is a vibration problem. Could it be that particular bike?

Try the 114 of the heritage
That's what I have. Great bike. I get a smile on my face when I get on the throttle.
Not sure ? But did you like this bike?? Lol 😝
R Zuniga I did. Lol
