Used Buyer Review

The Low Rider ST is Harley finally getting the touring-sport formula right. That 117ci Milwaukee-Eight hits hard from idle and the semi-active suspension actually works โ€” it's not marketing fluff. Used examples from 2022 onward are hitting the sweet spot where early software gremlins got ironed out but depreciation has done its job on price. Check the front forks for oil weeping and inspect the exhaust headers for bluing, both are known weak spots on early bikes. Day-to-day living with one is genuinely good. The windscreen isn't laughable like some Harley attempts, the heated grips work properly, and you can actually hustle this thing through corners without embarrassing yourself. It's no Multistrada, but it's not pretending to be. Where it falls short is passenger comfort โ€” that rear seat is cruel for anything beyond an hour, and the luggage capacity is honest rather than impressive. Budget for a rear bag if you're touring.

Pros

+Milwaukee-Eight 117 pulls hard
+Semi-active suspension genuinely capable
+Commanding, confidence-inspiring ergonomics
+Strong resale value retention
+Excellent wind protection for style

Cons

-Rear passenger comfort is poor
-Headers bluing on early examples
-Limited luggage without accessories
-Heavy at slow maneuvers
warning
Avoid if

You regularly carry passengers or hate weight
