Thank you both for these videos. I ride a Chieftain Ltd, am 5, 2 and weigh about 120 lbs. The struggle is real. And the limitations are real. Courtney illustrated it perfectly as well as the workarounds and things to avoid. This type of content is encouraging and shows how willpower overcomes fear.
Rhank you for your insite and for watching
Thank you for this video. I'm 5'9", and I really thought I was too short. Not any more.
Thanks for watching.
Thanks to the both of you for this video. I'm 5ft at around 125 lbs and just recently got my motorcycle license. Everyone keeps telling me I'm too small to ride a Harley or a bagger but this video definetly brought my hopes and confidence up. Also, Courtney looks badass on that bike!
being a "short rider" when you're backing up your bike, especially with one leg, be weary of small rocks or anything that can cause you to slip... it happens when you least expect it!
Thank you for watching
I'm 5'11" & I have issues when it comes to
small gravel or rock's even sand WATCH
OUT !!
AND THE HEAT! Nothing worse than when you're trying to push that bike back and that engine/exhaust takes a bite out of your leg! I've been burned bad on my calf
I give her all the credit in the world, she has her own routine and tons of confidence!,
Thank you for watching.
I’m 5‘5 and 5’6 on a good day, I was on the fence about getting a bagger, After seeing Your video I’m definitely considering getting a street glide. Thank you your video is very helpful.
thank you! That 2024 is a lot lighter bike.
To back up the bike, I would put down both passenger pegs and push my calves move backward. To hop on the bike, I would use to hold front brake, step up one foot on the floor board and swing my leg over. Been doing that since.
Love the focus on this series helping riders learn and become more confident. Thank You!
Thank you, we have a few more we are working on too.
I'm 4'11 and ride a bolt. I always stop with both feet down and if I can't back it up, I jump off and put it where I want it and don't give two shits who sees it! Loved the video.
Thank you!!
thank you both for this video, im 5'5" feet tall and considering to buy a road glide and im not confident to ride this big and heavy bike (eventhough i was using 2016 breakout for the past 2 years lol) but what Courtney showed to me in this video boosted my confident and im pretty sure to get and ride one for myself. Once again, thanks a lot both of you😊
Thank you and where there is will there is a way. Thanks for watching.
Thank you so much Courtney, I've been lookin to switch my slim for a street glide special. After watching a few of your videos I feel like I can ride and maneuver a bigger bike with the great tips you gave. 😀
Thank you, for watching
Thank you for this video. This really helps in deciding to get a big bike even if you're too short. Thanks Courtney! You are Awesome!
Glad we could help & Thank you, for watching. Dont forget to subscribe.
Yes thank you. I am also 5'0" tall and now watching her ride a bagger I feel more confident.
That's great! Thank you for watching.
Great info im around 5'6 and thinking about a bigger bike you're videos help
Really appreciate y'all making these videos. Definitely helping me gain confidence.
Thanks for watching
I love her!! I want a road glide and everyone is telling me I’m too short! I have test drove a few and they are super heavy. Have a hard time even backing them up a little. Practice makes perfect. Super inspiring, thanks for the video! I would love to see more videos with her:)
Next I think I'm going to do a video of Ryan as my passenger! Also, even though we went over backing up on this one, in the last year of owning this bike, I have never had to back my bike up an incline. Like Ryan said, I avoid it at all costs. The only reason I can ever think of someone NEEDING to back up on a hill is for a picture of all bikes backed up to a curb. I let gravity and the motor work for me!!
More with Courtney will be in the works.
Can you do a video on how to get you kickstand ? I’m having a hard time with my kickstand
I NEVER feel an obligation to back my bikes into a space. I point the front end so it's always uphill. As long as you have the option, there's no reason to ever have to back-up a bike up an incline.
That is the great thing about people., everyone has their way. Tanks for watching.
Loving these videos! As a short rider wanting a bigger bike this is perfect information
Thank you and thank you for watching.
Thank you for these videos! I’m a shorter rider (5’6) and this gave me some confidence to go test ride a road glide that I’m hoping will eventually be mine.
That is great to hear.
Great video and has really helped knock down my own mental blocks as far what I want to look at and ride for my style and purposes.
Thanks for watching.
I'm 5'2" and have been riding an Electraglide for over 20 years. Kickstand extender was a must have
Great idea. Thanks for watching.
I've been looking for a short girl challenge and example on Harleys. You're amazing, Courtney! I'm going back to watch again and to get your email! I just got a softtail deluxe, and I'm 5-3, it's been a little intimidating since I got it home a week ago until I ran into this video. Thank you both so very much. I'm going to give it a shot at some very careful practicing tomorrow morning.
Thank you, for the kind words. Thanks for watching and be safe.
Gravel parking lots will be a challenge. Great job!! Lots of solutions!
For most riders, thank you for watching.
Great video for peoples who want big bikes too. And I like it because she give us advice too.
Thank you for watching. We are working on a few more.
I could literally watch you all day long Courtney on your bike
wow is all I can say! I am 5'2" and just bought a SG and my biggest fear was that I am too short for this bike, coming from a Softtail Delux, I have been really in my head about OMG what have I done! Courtney, wow girl, you just gave me the confidence I needed, especially the kickstand trick in part #1. thank you! subscribed and following for more tricks!
So glad we could help. Thank you for watching.
Courtney is absolutely brilliant. Now here's an alternative viewpoint from someone not selling massive bikes:-
When wondering if you can manage a very tall / very heavy bike please bear in mind (i) Why do you want such a bike? (ii) How often will you be riding / practicing? (iii) Will you be riding on say the long straight roads of the USA, or say the heavy traffic/ immensely difficult roads of the UK? (iv) What does your home parking involve? (v) How badly would dropping the bike affect you?
It's important to remember that riding expertise is not purely straight line learning. You don't get better over the years, standing ready to turn on expertise at any time. I've been riding on the roads for 55 years + and for much of it I felt that I could do anything on a bike, but now that I ride infrequently taking out my Honda Valkyrie Interestate is a major challenge principally due the garage access - steep hill / 90 degree turns at 1 mph etc. But it's hard when you consider any particular bike exceptionally desirable and feel that you simply have to have it!
At the end of the day owning a bike which frightens you is not what biking is all about.
Thank you, for watching.
I'm flat footed on both sides,and it gives me hell,big ups to you!💪💪
Thank you, for watching.
lol! Nah, there is a 65 your old shorter rider female in my HOG chapter that has zero problem on her Street Glide.
Great video I'm old timer and short but you're doing good have same road glide love it you have obviously had some good teachers
Thanks for watching.
Good Job 👍 as long she can handle the bike that all matter big thumb up for the video .
Really helpful tips, Just got my first Harley Davidson Road Glide, heavily inspired from video and gave me confidence to go all in on this bagger, Ride Safe, fun video 🤙🏽❤️ Aloha, Kenneth
That is great to hear. The Road glide is a great bike and the more you ride it the smaller it becomes. Thank you, fir watching.
The good video bikes content with tutorials, tips'n tricks solution & experience too that makes our knowledge increase, open mind of big bike, awesome👍
Thanks for watching. Don't forget to subscribe.
Wow u guys are bad ass and thank you I’m only 5”8 and I like the st glide and I realy enjoy watching
Thank you, for watching. Dont forget to subscribe.
Great video, i want to start with a Dyna Switchback and this video helped me.
That is great to hear. The Dyna is a good bike and thanks for watching.
I have friends that or short & petite like yourself I'm going to show them so they know they can do it too...
Thanks for the video...have fun I am..
I’ve nearly dropped my SG from my foot slipping while walking it back more times than I can count... I look for debris most of the time but it’s the times I’m in a hurry & forget that get me. Dirty slick finished concrete will get you to if you aren’t careful... Considering her size/weight compared to that RG I think she did an awesome job!
Yep, you are correct. Thank you for watching.
Hi, I ride a ‘16 Fatboy Lo with a reduce reach seat and being 5’4”, I have trouble sometimes reversing the bike.
I applauded her for riding bagger 👏🏻👏🏻, it’s a hot bike🥰.
She rocks! Thank you for watching
Courtney rocks that Glide!! Nice visual of handling it
Agreed.
Thanks again guys these are brilliant
Thank you!
Great tips, way to take charge Courtney. Definitely not intimidated by a 900lbs bike. 👍💪
Thank you!
I love her! She should be in all of your videos. Let her take you for a ride!
lol, you never know what can happen on this crazy channel!
Excellent tutoral for short riders. Keep up the good work Courtney👍
Thank you for watching.
Which State, is Moonshine Harley Davidson, located?
@@estanislaof.desouza3393 Franklin, TN.
Thank you sweety!! ❤️
She does a great job and could out ride alot of guys..also remember that these are stock bikes and most shorter people will most likely lower the bike somewhat..my wife if 5'2" on a streetglide and dont know of any guys that can out ride her..BTW too many people say Sportster as a starter...poor starter bike..
Yeah, none of these bikes have been lowered. Motorcycle skills come in many packages for sure. Thanks for watching.
I ride a street bob. Eventually I want to upgrade for a road king this video gives me hope. I am a little scared of it lol she did awesome I am 5’ 3” I started on a 883 then 1200 now I have my street bob hopefully one day I have the guts to ride a bagger lol
I am glad the video could help a little.
I m a short guy learning a lot from yours videos
Thank you for the feedback, glad it helps.
No joke. Not a lot of content for us vertically challenged folk. Great stuff here
I have a 2019 RGU absolutely love it I’m 5’-8” still a pain to back up good video.
Thank you for watching
Your very welcome. Funny tidbit my wife 5’-11”can flat foot from the back of my RGU she saved us from a tip over on a slight incline.I will not park up hill on an incline anymore. Circling the lot for that perfect spot 🤞. We both laughed and I thanked her for putting her feet down. 🤣🤣
@@benjones4658 I am 5'10 and still look for the most level spot. lol
I'm putting a detachable kit for my tour pack. For days with no passenger. Takes off so much weight.
I am a huge fan of the detachable tour pack as well.
Just a little PSA. Your flag is hanging the wrong way on your wall. Union is always upper left to the observer. Doesn’t look like your video image is flipped backwards. Other than that, great video.👍
Thanks for the info
Moonshine HD, one of the few excellent dealers remaining. I've set up a few FLH and other brand bikes for shorties. Adding a Baker Drive Train reverse is another great option. And yet another costly but effective option for the bagger, the LegUp LandinGear. Irrelevant, some also get the Rekluse RadiusX auto clutch. Seat reupholstering custom fit to YOUR ass, many options here. Some of the more costly higher quality rear shocks 1" lower is another option, there are controversial considerations here. A lower profile tire, usually calls for speedo calibration.
Those are all great options for sure, Thanks for watching, brother.
Yaaaaay Courtney! She ain't scared! Great job.
She is a tough one. Thanks for watching.
Us short people will spend our money on other bikes ! I support her on what ever she wants to ride. Just be safe for you !!!
Thanks for watching.
Thanks bro I and looking for my first Harley I am 5.9 180 lbs you videos helped me a lot thanks again ang keep going
Thank you, brother! That is always good to hear.
Helped me a lot. I sat on one those at the dealership and got terrified
You are welcome. Thank you for watching.
What’s her inseam. Height is not really relevant but inseam. Great video being a short guy that’s the bike I’d love to have
She sees these comments and will answer. Thank you for watching.
Thank you
What a great advocate of the brand. I personally ride a Japanese bike but, id like full bagger one day.
For me, its just value for my money. n at the moment for what im content with (i damn sure aint riding a sporty) HD isnt for me. Maybe in the future though.
HD will let you test ride most bikes. Thank you for watching!!
I'm a short guy(5'4") and no joke, I struggle to back up my Yamaha Raider. It's wide stance has my legs spread and me on my toes. Plus the exhaust is high enough that when I drop my right leg, it rests on the hot pipe. So needless to say.... If I HAVE to back up.. I have zero shame hopping off the bike and pushing it back. Hahahaha
You adapt and ride. thank you, for watching.
Courtney did a great job on this video thanks for sharing
Agreed, thanks for watching.
I also stop with both feet down. I've always done it.
It is safer for sure.
Harley Davidson is the best motorcycle in the whole world.
And this good shop have them all.

5’8 163lbs this convinced me lol thanks!
Great video I'm 5'6 and ride an 08 Ultra Classic. Thing is heavy and these are really great tips.
I am glad they help.
How do you get your kickstand up I’m having trouble getting mine up
@@rogerc864 I sometimes miss but you just get the hang of it.
@@rogerc864 they also make extenders or you can weld one on yourself
Great video once again of Courtney and Ryan!
Thanks sir!
love your content !! keep it up!
Thank you!
Thanks for posting
Thank you for watching.
I ride a 2010 Street Glide CVO I am 5'5" 125 lbs and rock it !!!
Hell yeah!!
Sometimes you'll still be put in a position where you don't have a choice, but to be parked in a not ideal position. If you end up on a grade towards the kickstand, being short can be very difficult to get the bike upright. Or, you may have a steeper grade to back up, be parked in grass or on gravel, and being short makes it about impossible to move the bike on your own. Also, if you're going to be doing a lot of errands, and stops, a bigger bike can really be a handful, even trying to be strategical about where you're parking. Even at times my average height and tall friends prefer not to be out on their street glides and road glides. I'm shorter stature myself. I prefer touring bikes for just that, and have a softail which is my daily ride. Note, I do have the Legends Air Ride on my softail, so being able to set it way down really helps with manually maneuvering the bike. I'd reccomend a similar suspension setup an a touring bike, if youre shorter. I know I sound negative about short people and touring bikes. I'm not against it. Just be aware, you're likely still going to run into issues even with short person strategies.
Courtney is a doll :) Great video!
Thanks for watching.
Great job! Eventually l want to visit Moonshine Harley !
You will love it, they are good people.
I started on a touring bike, Well, not entirely true…. 30 years ago I rode. Sportster twice and had a triumph 650 1968 bonneville that was back in the 80s …. So…. Yea. It was like starting new …. You gotta lose the fear .. just cruise for hours on relatively low traffic country roads.. get the feel..it will come quickly… Don’t try all that parking lot stuf you see until a bit later.. but definitely do try the parking lot stuff with full lock turns.. like the parking lot trainers you see.. you will want to do that.. but not until you have a few hundred maybe even a thousand miles under your belt
Great points, I am afirm beliver in low speed skills on all motorcycles.
Excellent video, question of the slip ons of that 16 RG, any idea what they are? My opinion they sound great!!
That will be a question for Courtney. I will look the next time I am up there too. Thank you, for watching.
I’m considering moving from my Low Rider to a Street Glide. At 5’6’ I can barely reach kick stand.
You should definitely go test drive one At your local h d dealer. The street glide is a great bike.
Sitting here late at night watching TH-cam and do you know a little research on some LED lights for my 2000 Road King and I got finished and I came across your video and so why do you say that you were not subscribe to your channel I will be taking the time and watching all your videos and I can’t wait till what you bring up Max have a good night or day ride safe be safe out there
Thanks, my analytics say a lot of people that watch are not subscribers. I just ask if they would. I appreciate all the views for sure.
Awesome you rock gurl!!!
Thank you for watching
I found it easier with tall bars to grab the front of my seat on the side and pull from there with one hand...
Great feedback, thank you for watching.
You are a legend gal. And you are also one gorgeous biker.
Good video! The US Flag in your office is not displayed properly...
Thank you for watching, it has been changed.
Courtney is Great!!! Good job girl!
She rocks!
As a short female rider this actually helps so much. I have been limiting myself! I thought I was going to be stuck on my rebel 500 for ever!
I’ve been to Harley shops down here in San Diego, Ca but I am always being told not to lower any bike.
There are suspension systems out there that have improved the ride of a lowered bike. I am glad this video could help you. Thanks for watching.
Love it
Thanks for watching.
I wouldn't say I'm a short rider. I'm 5'8". However, I have a 28"-29" inseam.... so I experience all the same problems with my street glide. I've only had the bike about 3 months, but with a gravel driveway, I have probably almost dropped it about 10 times just backing out of the garage.
I think you are learning to control your bike better than most people will. That is some serious trail by fire. Thank you, for watching.
She is fantastic
Yes!! Tank you for watching.
im 5 8 and make a mistake pulling in forward into a downward parking spot. never again . i will not be so scared any more. thanks
Nice job little lady 👍 it's all about control
and confidence too. thank you for watching.
Hel, I weigh 250+ and often struggle with my softail 1450! Lol
lol, Thanks for watching brother.
quick answer: probably not. if you can flat foot the bike, you can learn to handle it safely, no matter what your size is. every harley bagger can be modified for those who are barely over 5 feet.
every bike is too big when you are a new rider............ every bike is too small when you are an experienced rider
I hope the both of you keep making videos.
Thank you!
I might have missed this, but is it easier to back up the bike in neutral vs in gear with the clutch pulled in? Thanks!
Most of the time yes.
Courtney is such a baddie 💯
Agreed!
I am 6 ft. Tall weigh 280 lbs. And I have a problem backing up an 06 ultra
Yep, That is part of the reason we did this video. Thanks for watching.
Elevated boots maybe a big help. Cant find them ina store anywhere.
Good suggestion.
I have no problem with height, it's the foot control is too far ahead, I need to control to shift gears and the back breaks
you can have your controls adjusted to your height.
What windshield did you put on that black Sport Glide? When you were looking for Courtney in the left side bag.
She will look and get back.
Damn the jiffy stand looked un-locked and ready to snap back the all time you guys were talking.
Stressful !
lol, I never noticed that!
I'm 6'8". How about a video for the tall rider?
That is a great idea.
Super nice video !
Thank you , for watching
We have a shoe cobbler in Shelton Washington. But he good with any leather work. While looking at his repaired shoes & boots ready too be picked up, I see pair boots. The boots looked like double soles an heels. Someone wants too be taller! I pick one up an say, these be good for motorcycle! He laughs! Yeah, that what they are for!
I know someone who wears a similar type of boot when they ride.
I got no trouble with short! My dad was 5'6", if he stretched some. But he, his mom, brothers & sisters walked from little rock Arkansas too S. California across Oklahoma Texas an Southern deserts, making kids like iron. Anaheim cops saw old lady in wagon with 8 kids walking behind, decided too put smallest 4 in orphanage. Entire orphanage kids wanted to dominate these new 4 little kids. So they started a fight! Last four standing were my dad and other 3, but there was tiny little girl sitting on floor leaning against wall. She looks at dad an says, you fight good, my name is Norma Gene, I like you! If her name sounds familiar, it's because she changed her name too Marilyn Monroe. So wonderful, great things than happen to even the smallest!
@@timbarnett3898 Now that would be a interesting movie. Thanks for watching.
Strong girl that's for sure!!
Agreed, thank you, for watching.
This woman gives hope to people who want to ride bikes. It's cute and pretty.
Great work guys... Does Courtney has a TH-cam channel? She really boost my confidence.. easy-peasy...
That is good to hear and no she does not have a channel
@@OMGMOTO Thank you and more power to your channel. Keep safe.
