​​​​@Calif Fat Bob Lol, I put some silicone adhesive on mine when I got the bike when I heard from Holy Shift that they were falling off. Only takes a little bit and you are good to go.

I wonder if any vendors will make a wide windshield that spans the entire top width like on the FXRT fairing. I know there aren’t windshield mount points to the outer edges, but figure it could be tied into an existing inner fairing mount hole.

I have to get around to doing that well Jake. Thanks for the reminder.

Dang, not currently available in the USA. Dang!
Yep, they do a lot of CFD with them too, I think you can order through Pyramid Plastics in the UK to the USA.

Well that is good news. Figured after some of the accessory prices the trim pieces would carry a premium

My ST has been having problems with the front brake disks. They warped after about 6k miles (now on 8K) so the bike felt like **** when braking. The HD mothership refused to replace them under warranty.

But my dealer worked with me and gave me an absolutely sweetheart deal on two Arlen Ness Big Brake kits. 50% off the parts, and free fitting - I couldn't argue with that, so now I have two big 15" wavy rotors on the front of the bike. It's a nice upgrade. The braking is smooth once again and I think there's more braking power and a little bit more feel to the brakes.

This is a poor photo, but you get the idea.....

I just picked my '23 FXLRST on Friday and learning about the "quirks" of the bike on this thread! Thanks again!

Those rotors are BADASS! My buddy put a set on his '21 StreetGlide and it changes the whole look of wheel! VERY NICE!

What bars does everyone find most comfortable? I have the thrashing high bend and think it could be better.

I am 5'9" - stock bars, just rolled back a bit. The huge difference was the saddleman seat that brought me a bit closer. Really nice now

Nice. I might go back to stock bars. I think the riser and seat is more important.
