That is my next bike. I have a 08 Roadliner and the 113 is the best engine on the market. If you're seeing $19,000 now, I'm hoping they'll be around $14K - $15K when I'm ready in 3 years. Awesome bike and review!
I absolutely love this bike my previous bike was a 2014 Raider S... If you have any questions please feel free to ... Thank you for taking the time to watch as well.
Just bought one love it great video showing alot of features I would love to hear the stereo while riding and maybe the panel lit up at night as well im going by videos right now haven't ridin my back yet waiting for the snow to leave im in Canada can't wait for my first ride!
No doubt you will absolutely enjoy it I am going to have a couple more videos coming out with some modifications this summer as well as some travel videos on how I set my bike up for traveling
Great video very informative I currently have a 07 Roadliner which I absolutely love but strongly considering adding the eluder or venture to my garage also the exhaust sounds great on your bike!
Yeah I've been keeping my eye out to see who comes up with something I would like to try and gets more power out of my bike as well as getting it really well in tune.. With the new exhaust I occasionaly get some flame shoot out between 3rd and 4th gear and occasionly 4th and 5th depending on the how hard I'm Twisting the throttle it seems to be when I improves of the highway or am accelerating really hard at the high end of the RPM range
The little microphone icon on the lower right is an indicator that your audio system is on. If you hold down your Volume rocker switch it will show an "X" on the Home screen and that the Audio is off, then the microphone icon has an "X" across it also. And FYI, you may want to turn the audio off when you motovlog, otherwise the TH-cam machine can ding you for copyright infringement if it can hear enough of a song to identify it for royalties. I added the Rox 2" risers to my handlebars to give me just a touch more pull back and a slightly more relaxed riding position. I'll have to look into the seat heater being adjustable for front and back, I don't think it is though. I've only used mine once on Low - not really needed too much on the Gulf Coast. ;) Peace and love.
Do you have a link to the risers i would definitely be interested in something like that... i just have not found anything in the little that ive looked.. as far as the seats you can adjust both separate in all the modes up here in PA ya just never know how the morning or evening will turn out haha weather is just messed up
Bike sounds great! Probably a bit too loud for me but a great sound. Good review, useful review. Looking for a v-twin bagger to update my '05 Yamaha Road Star 1700, 73K on it and still runs great. Yamaha makes some good bikes. Wanting to keep it under $12K. Can't find used Eluders in this range yet. I might wait until these get into my range. Thanks for the video.
If you look around on some Facebook pages and keep an eye on some dealers im sure you will find a nice used one or even a steal on a new one... another great bike is the raider
I like seeing videos on this bike from actual owners. Most are just talking heads, So one never actually gets to understand the big Yammy. I look forward to seeing a review of one with over 100k on it. That will probably be Long Haul Paul. As rides the snot out of his motorcycles.
I am right there with you that is why I put this video out because I feel like you don't get a true experience when you go to a dealership and just test ride which I am not against and would love to make some of those videos but I do not feel like they are as informal as a legitimate ownership and experience on the bike would be those are more as just a first hand experience and quick opinion of one... thank you for watching
Good stuff I subscribe. I don't even have one of these bike's. But I did just get my first cruiser bike, I hadn't ridden in 8 years. Its so fun. 2000 Yamaha Road Star Silverado 1600.
I wrecked a raider. How does this bike compare to the raider. Is there a wobble in higher speeds. How fast have you gone? I really want one of these!!!
I'm looking at a new 2018 Eluder on the showroom floor. How are the stock seats for long rides? Again, is there guards you can put on this bike if you forget to put the kickstand down?
Ive road upward of 5 to 6 hours on this seat at a time and have no complaints.... this bike has guards on them they are cover by the fog light house other than those i am un awar of after market guards
Thanks for your quick response, I really appreciate it. Currently I have a 2006 V-Star 1100 Silverado. It's a great bike but the upgrades I want to make to it are to the point where it might make more sense to upgrade to a brand new 2018 Star Eluder XV19BJS for $17,988 (still on showroom floor). I'm concerned about the guards (crash bar) which I asked about earlier. If I were to lay this bike down (forgot kickstand, etc.), will it be protected or will it get damaged. Again, thanks so much for your response, I'm sure you get a lot of questions. One more, what was the name of the pipes you installed on your bike. Final question, would you buy this bike again?
The majority of the bike would be protected it may scrape up the sale bag but the bag has plastic protection to an extent under it... the pipes i am running are tab performance with the zombie baffles but they do have different baffle sizes for preferred sound.... would i buy this bike again? Absolutely id probably go for the venture to get the trunk and seat but yes i would buy these again
Great video! As I'm watching this, I'm not 100% sure where your camera is placed, but looking at your mirrors all I can see is your hands. Are the mirrors actually better than that? Are they hard to adjust? Do you use your mirrors? Thanks!

@Denver Mullins theres no more problems than any other bikes or manufacturers... there have been a lot of people who have had really good luck and a few of us with hiccups.... i had the lifters and starter done and currently at 18000 miles and still Ioving every mile on it... most others i talk to feel the same way but obviously that is just our opinions
@Denver Mullins thats awesome... they have definitely proven they can make great bikes its a shame these new ones fell flat on their faces but i dont think they advertised well enough
The RPM band is a little lower... but does not lack in power and the cornering feels a bit smooth than the raider and you can get a bit more lean out of it

I hit a bird at 35 and it felt like I'd been punched right by the eye socket, that hurt. I was tempted to go to the ER because it was just before dawn and I was seeing stars from that eye. At 20 I hit a seagull twice but had a full face in and it was more like someone tried to push me off the bike by shoving the helmet. 3 bird strikes, all in San Diego.
those new pipes sound really annoying, man. I think it not fits this type of bike, but if you're personally like it/ the rest of the bike is awesome all around.
From what i have found it looks like you need to remove the dash face and possibly the small compartments to access all the screws which realistically is not all that hard to do
@@yamabeast5874 I test rode on today and I would do what I did on my Victory and swap out the stock speakers for 6.5s and a small amp to hear it at highway speeds
@@fouryearproductions most of the highway cruising ive done laitly ive avg between 70 and 80 and have been able to still hear it alright except with the new pipes if i am pulling the throttle open a little that tends to drown it a bit

At 20 I hit a seagull twice but had a full face in and it was more like someone tried to push me off the bike by shoving the helmet. 3 bird strikes, all in San Diego.
It's amazing with all the air space they have and they choose the 2' that I cover
Love the bike, and the pipes sound awesome, but if it's as loud when riding as it is in this video.....that's almost too loud.
Yeah they can get a bit loud haha but ive got use to them now but they make different baffle options to help find the right tone and loudness for you
those new pipes sound really annoying, man. I think it not fits this type of bike, but if you're personally like it/
the rest of the bike is awesome all around.
I dont think the video does it any justice but they sound great i feel
How hard is it to get to the front speakers to swap them out?
From what i have found it looks like you need to remove the dash face and possibly the small compartments to access all the screws which realistically is not all that hard to do
@@yamabeast5874 I didn't know if you could get to them from the front of the bike like if the front fairing came off anyway
@@fouryearproductions that i couldn't tell you i feel that maybe more work
@@yamabeast5874 I test rode on today and I would do what I did on my Victory and swap out the stock speakers for 6.5s and a small amp to hear it at highway speeds
@@fouryearproductions most of the highway cruising ive done laitly ive avg between 70 and 80 and have been able to still hear it alright except with the new pipes if i am pulling the throttle open a little that tends to drown it a bit
I friend of mine hit a buzzard, it knocked him off the bike and into the hospital...
I'm hate the mirrors all I see is your hands?
I like the sound of my Freedom exhaust better.
I personally dont but thats just my opinion and i dont like the looks either
