What are the main differences between riding a Harley Davidson and a regular road production bike???
I currently ride a Yamaha MT 03 and have done for 12 months (I love it by the way!). Its my first bike but now feel very confident on a 600cc machine.
However i plan to go on a bit of a tour soon and would love to do it on a Harley Davidson (Proberly a Custom Softail FXSTC) or something along those lines. I have never sat in a HD riding position or riden a HD before.
What tips do you have for riding Harley Davidsons compared to standard road bikes? is there any difference (am i just worried about nothing!?!?) ? Does the fat rear wheel make any difference? Low center of gravity? Weight of bike? All these must make a difference i assume?
I do have the option of riding a Bandit or Monster instead, but to experience the trip on a Harley Davidson would be fantastic.
Info, tips and advice would be much appreciated
Thanks
Ok, now for some real Harley facts and not the drivel being spewed by the same people that have never ridden a Harley long haul.
First off, with the factory mufflers, they are not loud and as evidenced by the tiny writing on the mufflers, do not exceed 83dB by law. If you're going on a long ride where you'll be on the road several days and putting on 200-500 miles a day, I'd stick with the factory mufflers and not straight or loud pipes. What sounds cool the first five miles doesn't sound so cool at the end of 500 miles. Besides, what are you going on the tour for? To listen to the exhaust? You can do that with the bike setting in the driveway. You're going to see the country, meet other people and have a good time with your buddies, things which are enjoyed more when you aren't being bombarded by noise. Your ride doesn't have factory mufflers? Every Harley dealer has take offs that can be had cheap.
The riding position is feet forward and stretched out with setting position more or less upright. The position varies somewhat depending upon the model, but that pretty well describes a Harley. With a windshield of some sort, that is a very relaxed position, especially if you have a duffle bungied on the seat behind you, letting you lean back and relax. You can ride for miles that way. Without something to break the wind, you may find that position tiring since your feet are too far forward to help you lean forward and support some of your weight. It depends mostly on the individual's height, arm and leg length. Pulling the handlebars forward helps to some extent.
Harleys traditionally haven't come with a tool kit, so a set of SAE wrenches 5/16"-5/8", a flat and phillips head screwdriver and a pair of pliers should cover just about anything you need such as adjusting the handlebars.
Harleys tend to be heavy but most also have a very low seating postion, hiding their weight. Once you're moving a bit, you don't notice the weight other than when trying to tear through hairpin corners. The supension on the newer bikes is quite good and the springer rides surprisingly nice.
Many Harleys don't have tachometers because they don't need them. They have so much low end torque that accelleration when shifting at 2500 rpm is just as good as when shifting at 4500 rpm. The torque curve is as flat as Kansas, meaning once you get it in high gear, you forget shifting until you come into a town. That locomotive like torque allows you to set the thumbscrew on the throttle, take your hand off the twistgrip and the bike will hold its rpm up and down hills as well as some cruise controls.
Most Harleys are not built for blinding accelleration and yes, are compartively slow when up against hyped out sportbikes half their size. But if you're on the long haul with a lot of ground to cover, 60 mph cruising at a relaxed 2500 rpm is more pleasant that straddling a 5,000 rpm kitchen blender and believe me, that high rpm frenzy gets annoying in short order. I don't care what anyone says, I'm speaking from experience.
Harleys also get good gas mileage by any standard and especially for a bike of their size and weight. Any Harley with a rubber mounted engine is smooth. At idle, it'll flop around like a fish out of water, but once off idle, the most you get is a relaxing gentle throb, if that. You'll never have numb toes or fingers from the high frequency vibration of some bikes that I've ridden. The brakes are good, although the pre-evolution bikes had poor ones that only a very strong gorilla could operate.
In short, if you're used to setting on top of a light sportbike, setting down in a heavyweight Harley is going to be a real change. But if you can handle a finicky, twitchy, hyperactive sportbike, you'll find a Harley very forgiving to ride. If you forget to shift, it doesn't matter. Find yourself in strong sidewinds, rain grooves and rough roads? It doesn't matter because Harleys are exceptionally stable and rather than buck your butt off, they'll save your hide.
