this is a review of my 2018 harley-davidson Softail Heritage Classic
I've had the bike now for about four or five weeks I want to just say to you guys if you're
thinking of buying one what it's like well first of all it's amazing this is a fantastic
bike some of the best bikes Harley Davidson do it's the top of the range Softail and as
you can see it's a good-looking bike even from that side a lot of the Harley Davidsons don't
look so nice from the left-hand side this one does the most noticeable feature of this bike
is how stable it is one of the things I really like is the foot boards you've got
multiple riding positions you can have your feet forwards like this or you can just put
your toes on the end and you can ride like that it really gives you a lot of options
in your riding position at first I thought I was going to need a tallboy seat but actually
this seat is starting to give a bit and I'm 6 foot 3 but I've got plenty of room now
I've got the handlebars as far forward as they can go with the screen which is off
at the moment obviously but that gives me a bit more room so up to six foot three no
problems if you're over six foot three you probably would need a tool boy seat bit I
reckon you'd be alright up to about six foot six on this bike I'm sure you'll agree it's
one of the best-looking Harley Davidsons and you've got the versatility of being able to
take off the bags at the back of the penny hairs and add the screen take off the screen or remove
the rear seat which simply means undoing that the bikes really good in these lovely English country
lanes and it soaks up the bumps ever so well with the new suspension and chassis on the new
2018 Milwaukee eight models the triple lights are fantastic in the dark they're really really good
the only downside with the stock engine is the very quiet exhausts but obviously
you can change that and I'm going to get slip-ons for this very soon watch I'll do
a video of I must say I do find having these pantyhose very useful never had
them before in any bike and they have been fantastic it's absolutely fantastic to have
a petrol gauge I've never had that on the motor work before really makes a difference
I've just stopped by the roadside here and the beautiful Lester sheer countryside absolutely
lovely around here I absolutely love the one 1/4 engine it's got so much torque it's incredible
hills are non-existent you just power up it's absolutely fantastic I've just about run it in
now and I've opened it up a few times and boy boy oh boy does it go and I mean this has got some
serious power but at the same time it's a very manageable bike you can ride this with moderate
skills and you'd be fine but for an experienced rider it's a fabulous motorbike I want to think
of some downsides but I really can't think of any apart from the exhaust as I said it really
is a fantastic motorbike really cannot fault it I absolutely love this cruise control you just push
it in and put it down to set it and then up and down to change the speed it's it to the speedy
riding it obviously but it's a really good thing if you're just riding along and you just want to
give your right arm rest it's very very useful I'm haven't yet used it on the motorways but I'm
sure it'd be even more useful there so what do you get for your extra money well obviously you
get the mud guards the chrome you get the rear seat the fattest feta seat there's a
lot more shiny bits on the engine there's more glossy bits there's more Chrome you've got the
foot boards the thick fat front suspension the three lights the handlebars all glossy there's
more to it than meets the eye obviously the one 1/4 engine you get the 107 on the street Bob
so you're not just getting a couple of bolt on parts it's a lot more motorbike for your money
so obviously the verdict is that this is a great buy to get so if you're thinking about
buying one will you like it really not like it yes you'll love it it's an amazing motorbike
if there's a reason not to buy this bike then the only thing could be it's a heavy
bike so if you don't want to have a hard bite to maneuver in the garage car parks etc then
you know there are smaller Harley Davidsons rather motorbikes you can buy but you know
saying that it's a very well-balanced bike so if you drop it you've got problem
