This is definitely the most versatile of Harleys. And the one every Harley rider wants to have in their hands when it comes to having fun or taking the big twin out for an impromptu spin. That's what it was born for, back in '77, to be a bit of an industry agitator. The task is less obvious today, but the spirit is still there. Well, almost, because the Low Rider has changed family.

A Softail now. It had no choice: the Dyna frame, on which it was based, has been retired. Pure riders will have to swallow a coconut to accept this change. Technically, it's a win-win situation. The chassis in question has been extensively redesigned. Falsely Hardtail, of course, with a simplified frame requiring fewer parts and welds. Its rigidity is far superior: much more so than the old Softail frame, much more so than the Dyna. With a new monoshock under the seat (making it invisible) and an improved fork, the Low Rider's chassis should be much more efficient.
Except perhaps when it comes to braking. Strangely enough, a brake disc has disappeared from the front. Could it be that the machine has become more confident as a result of its weight loss? Watch out for optimism. While it has lost 9 kilos since the previous generation, it still weighs 287 kilos dry on the scales. The Low Rider shrugs it off - claiming to be faster and able to take unimaginable turns. That says it all!

No, not quite. Because there's still the key component: the engine. And what a block it is. The M8, which replaced the Twin Cam in less than two years. Harley-Davidson has moved much faster than usual to install its latest Big Block in all its high-caliber models. The Milwaukee Eight is a 1745 cm3 engine with 8 valves and 4 spark plugs in all. Plus a balancer to greatly reduce vibrations at idle. Its power develops in line with the brand's standards, with 2 mkg more than the old engine. Almost enough to rival the vigorous former 1800 Low Rider S with its Scream'in Eagle engine. Still full of character but less rough around the edges, this V-twin perfectly matches the spirit of the new Low Rider.
The Shotgun 2-in-2 muffler is one of the most striking peripherals, reinforcing the guidelines, while the wheels now feature 'Radiate' rims - still 19" at the front, but 16" at the rear.

Despite its profound technical changes, the Softail Low Rider remains true to its raison d'être. Welcomed into a new family, it won't be long before it's accepted by both its siblings and its public, who should enjoy it even more than before.

Beautiful machine with nice chrome and seventies spirit. Great sounding M8 engine with V&H shot gun. The torque is just amazing. Good handling. I don't regret the purchase Rating : 5/5
La Légende
French Model 2019
Superb motorcycle, very pleasant and comfortable, a real pleasure with this engine, which is as torquey as you want it to be...you can take corners without rubbing everything...braking without any problem, even when "attacking"...maybe it's possible to add a disc at the front, although...softail frame much stiffer than the Dyna, chrome everywhere, a real pleasure.. Rating : 5/5
French Model 2019
I went from superlow to low rider with great pleasure. Apart from the braking, which is a bit limited, so my riding takes that into account, it's really a great bike. With a sissi-bar, a pair of panniers and the HD pannier, you can hit the road and carry your toothbrushes with no problem. Rating : 4/5
Meule agricole
French Bip bip Model 2018
It's not a safe motorcycle. braking rather Light too heavy in short a tiller a potato digger paid too much on the other hand consumes little fuel. To forget Rating : 2/5
French Bill
I'm getting ready to buy a 2018 one. A single front disc: not enough or is it just that you have to adapt your speed and riding? I don't remember the fat boys of the 2000s braking much better! Haven't we become too demanding or too much of a plan?...,!!? Rating : 5/5
French Christo Model 2020
After 12,000 kms and a Stage 1, it's still as much fun to ride as ever, catching the eye of passers-by (young and old alike) with its chrome and sound, whether riding or standing still
A mid-range custom model at an affordable price, it's versatile with its sober, well-kept look. It's a good basis for personalization
Too bad we don't see more of them in dealerships, to the detriment of fatboys and sporsters
It's a good machine, comfortable and powerful on the freeway
No regrets for my first HARLEY.
Rating : 4/5
FXLR : une belle bécane ... qui freine aussi
French induction94 Model 2020
I switched from the 2012 street bob (dyna) to the FXLR 2020.... the new softail platform is much more comfortable than the dyna: more torquey engine, improved handling and more effective brakes than on dyna.... lacks the vibrations that have disappeared into history... it's the direction of history apparently. Rating : 5/5
les freins !
French matieu Model 2020
the second front brake disc is missing....impardable on Harley's part.... cheap economy at the expense of safety,it's petty! Rating : 4/5
French Sergino
I bought them this year really disappointed dangerous to ride motorcycle that does not brake it will be sold after containment and then finished Harley Rating : 1/5
French Model 2019
