My list (much like yours) of top things to get on a touring motorcycle to actually tour on would be… 1) tool kit. I’m no mechanic, but sometimes you need a minor fix to get you to where you’re going. 2) tire plugging kit. Used that on a recent trip doing the Trail of Tears ride. 3) bags. I own an Ultra Limited, but I like having bags I can carry into the hotel. 4) highway pegs. Like you said, it is a must to have other options for positions to sit in. 5) lights. Front and back, get it lit up and visible so you can see and be seen.
this was a very good video for me. I'm new to harley and have a 2020 glide standard. thanks for sharing. Your mentioning of the trips you went on was good too, meaning you are experienced. Thank you for sharing!
I bought a new 2019 street glide sp. It has 40700 on it. I got the color matched king tour pak. If my bike sits longer than a day or two I put it on a trickle charger. My last bike I did the same thing and the battery lasted 8 yrs. In Sept. I got a rear flat. No plug kit. No air compressor. After getting it towed to the nearest dealer and getting the tire replaced I got home and got myself a plug kit and compressor. I most always carry my rain gear. I have a two person tent. It's just me but I unload my gear (except what's in the saddle bags and tour pak) and put it in the tent. I also put my seat in the tent. That way you have a dew free seat in the morning. And if it's been raining I stand the seat up in the tent and let the moisture drain to one end and have a fairly dry seat in the a.m. I also carry an atlas even thou I have a smart phone and the gps on the bike. I started out sleeping on an old army mattress pad then latter bought an air mattress to put on top of the pad. What a game changer. I keep up on my maintanance which of course is important. Klock werks wind screen was the first thing I added and I love it. Highway pegs are a must too like you said.
$25k “new” more like $35k on the road new w/tour pack, heated grips, pegs, windscreen…. Otherwise…. Love the video from tclocs to mentality to loctight to tender to planning. Nice color too…16-18 paint options were cool. Thx for PIF, I’ll subscribe
So very good video. I have spoked wheels so I cannot just plug the tire. 2005 ultra classic. Love my tour pack. Good info for people with mag wheels. Electrical tape hav saved my life. Pack it. My shifter rod broke and used electrical tape as a temp. fix. My friend carrys the ends because they all brake sooner or later. I always take gum as I ride, helps me stay sharp. Always have rain suite with me. The quick disconnect @ my fuel tank started leaking. There are 2 o rings that need to be replaced when this happens. Will need a qualified tec to do this repair. Real good advise to keep an eye on your fluid levels and change when they are do. Never leave your leather bungied to your bike, someone will steal it when your in the bar. Maybe see you at one eyed jacks sometime. Spot
good video, light upgrades are a must in my opinion. I just did saddlebag hinge lights when I was in Arkansas for the Bikes, Blues, BBQ run this past year. They are awesome, bright Run, break, turn lights. Also a GOOD digital tire pressure gauge.. not one of these $2 Walmart gauges. I did the LED custom dynamic turn signals all around and 8" run/break/turn Plazma rods on the back... Let people SEE YOU....
@@TorqueandPower Another thing I am considering investing in is the custom dynamics PRO BEAST Horn. they run $209 and are crazy LOUD.. The wife was asking me what I wanted for CHRISTmas and I think THIS is my go to gift. Its plug and play too... just a thought bikers... be SEEN and HEARD.. Merry CHRISTmas from the DAWG in the Show Me State.
@@barrydawg7544 definitely need to look into that horn you mentioned! Nothing better than a loud horn to get things moving ha! Merry Christmas to you too!
@@TorqueandPower The Harley dealer here in Columbia, MO had the Pro Beast Horn on display.. it had a note on it TRY ME... LOL. I said to the parts guy "hey man I want to hear this and he said go for it.."..it LIT that Place UPPPPPP. LOL... what I like to is its easy unplug and remove the old horn and put the BEAST on and plug it in,, thats it... sounded like a train horn...
The compressor is Harley-Davidson brand and the tire kit I just picked up on Amazon. Lots of good ones on Amazon just remember to have pliers with to pull out the nail or screw!
I have a 2009 FLHT with similar set as yours. I’m considering buying a road king next. You should check out Kill Switch Queen’s TH-cam channel. She rode her Dyna from California to New York and back. All these things are luxuries. Kill Switch Queen reminded me what it means to be a motorcycle enthusiast and it isn’t buying all these things to make us comfy. Like I said though, my Electra glide standard is set up like yours but I’m going back to minimalist riding. And I do take long rides every year. Including the saddle sore 1000.
Make sure to get tire strings not the mushrooms. I the mushrooms I have had fail if the hole is too big. The strings allow you to put multiple strings in a hole and get you to have it replaced. Windscreens make sure you test it with your pillion as the sit higher.
Awesome Street Glide 👌 but what I have to say. the sundowner bench is much more comfortable than the cvo bench. of course not that nice. but more convenient
@@TorqueandPower we don't need to talk about it. the cvo bench is much nicer. I do it like the windscreens. for small tours the cvo bench and the small windshield. for big tours the sundowner and the 8 inch windshield An again,your street glide is so awesome.
Beautiful bike man, I couldn't help but notice the competition orange terminator 1 of 72. Came for the harley content but i subbed when i saw the terminator 🤙🏻
@Torque and Power holy shit man! 2k miles? Try not to drive it so much, i know its difficult. Hold on to that thing dude that car is on it's way to be worth 6 figures some day soon 🤙🏻
Thanks! Yes I put the numbers and part in the description area! Wait till after Jan 26th when Harley-Davidson releases the info on the ‘22 models if you plan on buying a new motorcycle!
This was great, just discovered your channel through this video. I did notice something that threw me off (full disclosure I know absolutely nothing about what was cause this) when you switched to video with the bike the audio didn’t match the visual while you were talking. It did just fine with the intro but once it switched it doesn’t appear to be in sync any longer. At the end it seemed to come back into sync again…so not sure. Nevertheless I thought it was solid advice…well done!
Great vid been doing it 20 plus years now I have learned from experience now riding SG CVO with tour pac love it and did 12 inch bars highway pegs did the lights (pays to be seen) any way they are called creature comforts stay safe and keep them coming o by the way this is don loretts husband but I'm on her computer like she's on the back of my bike ha
When heated grips always getting heated grips my 2011 street glide has them shoot if I get a 250 2stroke I think I’d put them on that thing I tell EVERYONE just get heated grips lol just missing that nice bag
I have a 2017 RGS and one thing that many do not do is change the factory emergency code that everyone knows to a code only YOU know. That way if you happen to lose your fob you can still override the system with your code, start the bike and GO... I think the factor code was something really hard like 31313 .. LOL. just a hint zip codes are 5 digits lol.
I also bring the extra key and key fob, but flip the battery or your bike is always ready to go. Of course you could keep both in your pockets, but that defeats the purpose of having the spare in a different location.
Of course! It’s a stock cvo Harley-Davidson fender. I order from New Castle Harley usually cause good pricing and great staff there online. I had to have it painted to match of course. I try and go with Harley products as much as I can because in my experience of aftermarket world the factory has the best fitment!
Loved the video. Very informative. Do you happen to have the part number for the fender. I want to try to get it for my road glide. Recently had a battle with installing an amp and let’s just say the amp won. Now I have a dented fender. 😞
I prefer a passenger backrest and the luggage that he uses, which I can then take off and put in my hotel room. It's an easier use thing than the tour pack.
I bought the King Tour Pak so my wife could be more comfortable. My Road King handles better without the added weight. If you are solo, use a luggage rack and bag. If two-up, the KTP is the only way to go.

It is Harley-Davidson Onyx Premium Touring Bag. Fantastic bag and designed right!

Yes thank you. Appreciate the compliment! Fun toys

Thank you! It’s called Legend Blue Denim. Only made in 2018. Appreciate the comment!
some lovely looking bikes there mate👍
Thanks!!
Great info 👍Next level up would be a ultra,thousands of dollars cheaper and half the extras you don't buy or worry adout,
Very true! Makes it easier for sure but they didn’t make it in the color I liked otherwise….👍🏼

Very true! Strings are what I use as well. Great point 👍🏻
You should put the smoked reflectors on the saddle bags I think that would be a good touch
I've always been torn whether to put on the smoked reflectors cause I do like the red color ha. Maybe soon in the future!
I ride a street glide and to shorten your list of everything you’ll need to change/upgrade? =EVERYTHING…..
Awesome Street Glide 👌
but what I have to say. the sundowner bench is much more comfortable than the cvo bench. of course not that nice. but more convenient

Appreciate it Jim! The first milestone has been hit!
No one told me that tourers are not ideal for mountain road (NC, GA, TENN) riding. Mush too heavy to lug around sharp turns.
That’s interesting I took my sgs to Smokey mountains and I thought it handled great. But maybe we were in different areas of Tennessee.
You've already got the docking system so get a color matched tour pack instead of that bag which would probably hold just as much.
Certainly thinking about it!
I prefer a passenger backrest and the luggage that he uses, which I can then take off and put in my hotel room. It's an easier use thing than the tour pack.
