    See two of these 2019 springfields available used..hard to find around here so i gotta go 200-300 miles to get one.. new is a little out of my price range but think this 2019 will be my upgrade from my HD Sportster1200 is my first bike.

    About the buffeting, I’m 70” with 32” inseam, I have the Guardia version with the taller windscreen and get zero buffeting. Living in California and driving freeway speeds too. I use an Arai helmet which could also make a difference. This was one of the main reasons I chose this bike was because of no buffeting. Sounds like a simple fix depending on your stature.

  • @CalvinBradley

    California scientific has a tall windshield that you might like. Based in Mo. I think. I enjoyed the review and thank you for sharing. It’s the one bike I am considering. Like you said, the lack of support is a drawback.

    • @RabidHedgehog
      @RabidHedgehog 4 дні тому

      Depending on your height on the bike as long as your legs hit the ground it's pretty good, but top heavy if your legs don't provide enough leverage. On the ground it's really easy to move around and get on it's center stand and such.

Former H D former Yamaha former Kawa triple. Guzzi's are my Fav. So all around balance. Great brakes, Great torque. Great cruising at 85 to 90. AND Not everyone has one. Ps. Valve adjust takes 1.5 hrs and is easy.

I'm not saying it will outrun or outlean crotch rocket race bikes. I mean it has outstanding handling and is so flickable on roads like The Dragon, The Snake, Moonshiner 28, and other twisty roads.

    • @RabidHedgehog
      @RabidHedgehog 16 днів тому

      I agree that the heat can be something not expected to those who have never experienced a V-twin before as your legs do wrap around the rear cylinder essentially. I don't really feel that heat any longer as much due to the many years on V-Twins and also the NightRod being the hottest freaking thing on the planet. This new Speedplus engine does not produce the heat of the Scout engine of past, but I could see where some may find it feeling warm.

    @davidphillips7255 19 днів тому

    The thing with this Guzzi is that it isn't a modern bike styled to look traditional, it's an older traditional design that has been carefully refined, updated and really really improved. Engineer brother's 890 KTM with quick shifter will run circles around this Guzzi but it feels isolated in comparison and it doesn't speak to me. The mechanicalness, handling and comfort of the V7 Stone does. As brother noted; they are compleat opposites on the street bike spectrum, but both great.

    RH, I really appreciate your videos man! You have reviewed BOTH of the motorcycles I owned. My VERY first motorcycle was a 2018 Suzuki Boulevard M90 (too big for a beginner right?) and now I have a 2022 SDH and I absolutely love it. I've had it for a year and a half now and couldn't be happier (unless they switched out the gauge and placed in more in my field of view). I was considering the RKS. I even rented a RKS for a weekend from a guy on Riders Share and liked it. Buuuuut, once I went for a test ride on the SDH, it was game over for the RKS. Such a difference in the way it rides, handles, and shifts. Once I rode it, I knew I was getting it! Thanks again for your reviews!

    I test rode the Sport Chief and 101 Scout yesterday. Coming from a Honda CB1000R naked, looking for a more upright position, the Sport Chief felt good. It took turns better than bigger cruisers and still felt like a cruiser. Then I rode the 101. For me, again coming off a naked sport bike, the 101 is my pick. The Sport Chief, even in sport mode, had a bit of lag in the throttle, which is something I cant have for my commute. The 101 was immediate throttle response. But even in sport mode it felt like it was needing just a bit more oomph. But then I found it's piwer band happy spot. Like RH says, it is in the 4k+ range and you feel it. Now I'm eagerly waiting to trade my CB in for this bad mamajama.

    This was an excellent review as you presented more realistic road challenges with potholes, poor surface quality, etc. I also like that you took it on the interstate, where we saw what wind buffeting is like. I'm looking at your bike, the Chieftain, and Challenger, but there's something about the classic, no-frills look I'm a sucker for. I like the Road King Special, but the suspension on the Indian edges is out for me.
