That was funny as F. Honestly, I have been wanting to buy a Harley for a few years now and almost cancelled my interest because of that CEO. I cannot stand the woke ideology. I just can't.
I spoke to my local dealership this past weekend. They told me that the LRS & ST did get the Sportster S gauges, engine upgrades (HO-117), and about 5 or 6 different color options along with the two here, there’s the standard grey, vivid black, and the blue burst. I feel like he may have mentioned one more color but I can’t remember. Didn’t mention anything about the exhaust tho, so that’s dope along with the matching bag sizes! Definitely had me wanting to buy a new bike this year!
Maaaaan, I agree so much with the Sportster S gauge. I get that some people don't like it, but us younger guys (45 and under) can really appreciate the technology on that screen.
Great video man and Happy new year. Yeah, those leaked photos surfaced yesterday, I was looking forward to your take on it :) Looks like Harley is listening. I see a few others pointed out potential CVO badging on the ST bags, that's interesting as well. Maybe that one will ship with a 121.
Yeah that would be rad if they do it. Pending the price though. Some years they surprise me and I feel the value is there sometimes I just can’t see it.
One correction... The Lowrider S had an analogue gauge in an upper bar clamp that doubled as the gauge mount. It was okay if the only differences between the S and the ST other than the bags and fairing. I actually sold a few S bikes over the ST because of this, and the customers ended up getting the Advanblack fairing and different bags to add to their S because they hated that digital gauge.
It also has the new cam cover like the Gen-2 Milwaukee 8 engine in the newer touring models. The equal height clamshell bags with added width will be a nice upgrade, I'll have to order a set for my 2023 White Sand Pearl FXLRST.
Usually, the Lowrider only has 1 or 2 colors other than grey or black (not including the specialty colors like Diablo or tobacco fade). So it would make sense that these would be the optional colors (since we seen them on other models already) over Red Rock and Sharksin. I'm glad Sharksin was a 1 year color as I have one and don't want to see a lot of people with it.
Nah 2-2 exhausts aren’t bad. They look sick on choppers. So many people run the exact same 2-1 exhaust. I’m sick of looking at it. I think a dual exhaust like they have on the touring bikes would be interesting on the ST.
I’m thinking that the high output on the 117 refers to a high lift cam. I’m thinking the other cruisers will get the Gen 2 117 water cooled motor like the ‘24 standard baggers.
I guess we’ll see what we will see…… soon - 23rd Hopefully ST will be just like the picture - this bike needs bigger storage much more than shotgun exhaust!
Oops. The LRS does NOT have the tiny digital Casio gauge from the softail standard. The LRST does, however. Easy to say, the new softails will have upgraded engines and electronics.
The client will insist on certain colors and there are not as many shades available, as this makes it appear there are not as many motorcycles available. Better get them before they're bought up. A marketing strategy.
The 2024 FXLRS already had the single gauge mounted on the top clamp.. that's not new for the 2025 model year. The actual gauge may be different, but location is the same. The 24 FXLRST had the digital gauge similar to the FXBB and FXST. The object "behind the windshield" is simply the other mirror on the FXLRST. The bags are wider and even both sides. The ST shouldve been given the cvo badge and a 121, while a standard ST having the 117 high output. The heritage is actually worthy of the 117 high output, more so then the breakout. The Moco should get rid of the FXBB and leave the FXST. Put the 114 in the softail standard and bring back the FXLR, with a 114 in it and the tsport styled saddlebags from the PNA book on it.
That can't be it...I was expecting a redesign. Probably doing away with the 107 and the standard seeing as it's really just a street bob. Can't make the fxbb a 117 because that means bumping up everything else. Then where's the entry bike? I have to say it's not looking good with no tin redesign.
Eh. Not a fan of the two into one exhaust it gets rid of the potato potato sound a little bit. I put one on my Lowrider years ago and regretted it , not that it’s horrible but to me, the staggered dual exhaust completes both the look and the sound better. Hope there’s more on the other side of that windscreen and for heaven sakes those turn singles better be LEDs !!!
Why dont you think it makes sense for the street bob to get the 117? Truthfully, i like the loks of the street bob more than the Lowrider S, but if i were to get one, itd be the Lowrider S, because the 117. I won't be buying one for atleast 2 more years when i pay off my vehicle..
Only because it would drive the price up. I’m not a fan of the Sportsters so for a new rider to get into Harley on a conventional cruiser it would have to be the Street Bob or Standard. I feel the Standard is gone soon unfortunately and I know HD will jack the Street Bob price another 2-2500 if they do the 117.
@throttleblip9854 I see, that makes sense. I'm not a fan of the new Sportsters, however I do own a 77 and an 05 883, so I'm a fan of the Evos etc. I just want bigger and more power next
I really think instead of upping and upping displacement like they keep doing they should introduce the supercharger they have patent on. Use the cooling system they just introduced with the supercharger and bring the displacement back down a little. Thank you for your content
Sooo.... the ST gets the bags and single exhaust from the Sport Glide? I put an Advanblack ST fairing on my 2018 Sport Glide and it looks just like the pictured bike.
I think we see different values in falling behind. I hate the digital gages on any brand but supersports. They are just so ugly and the HD cruiser needs to keep a simpler analog speedometer
Any idea if Harley will be upgrading their CEO ?
We can only hope so
That was funny as F. Honestly, I have been wanting to buy a Harley for a few years now and almost cancelled my interest because of that CEO. I cannot stand the woke ideology. I just can't.
Fucking funny 😂
It’s the mirror on the other side💀💀💀💀💀
Agreed. The other mirror
Yup. A go pro...? Dood do you need glasses?
No, inbetween the mirrors there is a bump which gives the impression of a possible round speedo gauge.
There’s definitely a gauge in between.
Came here to say this..

The rear indicators have also been moved to the rear of the fender, will make it easier for bags now. I’ll be getting the new bags for my 23 LRS!
Great pickup!
The ST is probably the strongest offering HD has in the softail line up.
I agree. But low key I’m waiting for standards to get really cheap in the used market so I can build something cool out of it.
Yeah, If your 5'8 or shorter.
Maaaaan, I agree so much with the Sportster S gauge. I get that some people don't like it, but us younger guys (45 and under) can really appreciate the technology on that screen.
Straight up agree with you (42)
Looks like the second mirror through the windshield
Good catch! 🤦🏻♂️😆
A chrome option for the low rider would be dope.
They had a standard Low Rider in 2019 a year after the release new M8 Softail models but discontinued it in 2020 🤷♂️
@Group_Anonymous yes, the 2020 in billiard red was my favorite. Haven't liked a low rider since 2020, the last year of the chrome option
Great video man and Happy new year. Yeah, those leaked photos surfaced yesterday, I was looking forward to your take on it :) Looks like Harley is listening. I see a few others pointed out potential CVO badging on the ST bags, that's interesting as well. Maybe that one will ship with a 121.
Yeah that would be rad if they do it. Pending the price though. Some years they surprise me and I feel the value is there sometimes I just can’t see it.
That circle behind the windshield is just the left-side mirror
They should put the New 117 on all of the Softails.
You nailed it. great work.
One correction... The Lowrider S had an analogue gauge in an upper bar clamp that doubled as the gauge mount. It was okay if the only differences between the S and the ST other than the bags and fairing.

Awesome photo! Check out this plate flipper which is also a fender eliminator all in 1 🤯
Im gonna paint my Johnson in Mystic Shift so my wife will ride it.
😂
Pretty sure she likes the black one. Damn I said it! Jk
It also has the new cam cover like the Gen-2 Milwaukee 8 engine in the newer touring models. The equal height clamshell bags with added width will be a nice upgrade, I'll have to order a set for my 2023 White Sand Pearl FXLRST.

Is it a cvo low rider st since it has the red in the bags
I think that’s just the new color way among ST models
Nah 2-2 exhausts aren’t bad. They look sick on choppers. So many people run the exact same 2-1 exhaust. I’m sick of looking at it. I think a dual exhaust like they have on the touring bikes would be interesting on the ST.
From the photo it looks like the rear turn signal lights have been removed. It should all be integrated into the taillight.
Is it just me, or were the wheels black (on both bikes)?
A chrome model ST would bet on that ,No mention of the raditor for water cooled softails
is that color iron horse metallic with red accents? is that a cvo softail?
And looks like LED front indicators. No more orange either.
They were probably just trying to sell a ‘24 but my local dealer told me there would be zero changes for the ‘25 ST 😑
I see that Harley is making their Pant's in one length fits all.
I’m thinking that the high output on the 117 refers to a high lift cam. I’m thinking the other cruisers will get the Gen 2 117 water cooled motor like the ‘24 standard baggers.
Is the High Output 117 the original stage 3 or 4 before the 131 kit came out?
That's not the gauge, it's the rearview mirror.
The pushrod tubes look interesting in that photo almost looks like knuckle head style🤔
That thing in the middle of the windscreen is the other mirror
I guess we’ll see what we will see……
soon - 23rd
Hopefully ST will be just like the picture - this bike needs bigger storage much more than shotgun exhaust!
At least on the right side. The short right saddlebag looked like unwiped #$$.
So what happens to all the 2024s still for sale? Where i live in Canada theres 100s of 24s at the dealerships for sale no discounts
Is it true that the colors that were basic like black, white will be a premium color for 25 and the colors like the sharkskin blue will be standard?
Through windshield you can see the other mirror
Hopefully the rest of the soft tail line will get upgraded , the standard and the st bob needs updates
If you look closely at the bag, you’ll notice a CVO there… the ST may be a CVO ST
That’s the factory reflector
Oops. The LRS does NOT have the tiny digital Casio gauge from the softail standard. The LRST does, however. Easy to say, the new softails will have upgraded engines and electronics.
It's probably a go pro for the photo shoot
Good sleuthing, Grasshopper!
The bronze wheels are gone. New gauge ride modes coming ?????
Inverted forks on Street Bob me wants
I’m certain that picture of the Breakout is a photo from last year. I feel like I’ve seen it before.
That spot in the windshield is the other mirror.
Gonna be trouble for someone if HD finds out who let these out!
Still casino dash??
also new hand controls you can see in a leaked pic
Picture not in Milwaukee live in Milwaukee my whole life n we dont have a big arch thing l
thats in the background
Looks like a go-pro during the filming of a commercial
Whees don’t look like the bronze color like on previous LR-S and ST...
The client will insist on certain colors and there are not as many shades available, as this makes it appear there are not as many motorcycles available. Better get them before they're bought up. A marketing strategy.
It looks like the FXDX Lava Red color way.
The 2024 FXLRS already had the single gauge mounted on the top clamp.. that's not new for the 2025 model year. The actual gauge may be different, but location is the same. The 24 FXLRST had the digital gauge similar to the FXBB and FXST. The object "behind the windshield" is simply the other mirror on the FXLRST. The bags are wider and even both sides.

Once you use a speed sensor for your speedometer it’s an electric not analog.
Using a sensor means it is electric not mechanical. Analog means it isn't digital.
That can't be it...I was expecting a redesign. Probably doing away with the 107 and the standard seeing as it's really just a street bob. Can't make the fxbb a 117 because that means bumping up everything else. Then where's the entry bike? I have to say it's not looking good with no tin redesign.

Well, they're not water cooled. And that thing behind the windshield is just the other mirror.
Low rider S looks just like a Street 750 training bike
Sooo.... the ST gets the bags and single exhaust from the Sport Glide? I put an Advanblack ST fairing on my 2018 Sport Glide and it looks just like the pictured bike.
Looks like a claw shell saddlebags??????
Like the vids but neck tattoos 😳?
Just wait until the 23rd. Speculating and guessing is just a waste of time
😂 Harley keeps leaking info
They have to be right? This happens every year!
I think it’s on purpose to drive up interest.
At least acknowledge where you got the photos from.
Black spot in windshield is the left hand mirror.
Hey, no more shitty incandescent turn signals🤙
These pictures are definitely not done anywhere near the factory in Milwaukee. Y'all are way off
Bronze rims also.
Its looks like other mirror to me
Let me guess starting at $25K
Phowdow
I think we see different values in falling behind. I hate the digital gages on any brand but supersports. They are just so ugly and the HD cruiser needs to keep a simpler analog speedometer
intentional leak and rumors 🤦🏻🤣
I hate digital gauges enough to totally skip the model
It's a mirror 🤷
I would think they would put the new 117 in all the soft tails but the Lowriders get a more aggressive cam
Meh, none of that is worth an upgrade on my 2023 LRST
I wouldn’t trade even up for my crusty panhead for one of these. Pure garbage
Just a mirror dude….
I dont like the 2 into 1 exuast.😊
So lame …….
