Lurch Bought A Brand New 2024 Harley-Davidson Road Glide: Our Experience at Apple State Power Sports

It was an exciting morning at the Law Abiding Biker store, but this time, not just for me. After 10 years of riding his trusty 2015 Road Glide, Lurch finally made the big decision—it was time for a new Harley-Davidson! And what better place to get it than Apple State Power Sports in Yakima, WA. (see video below)

The Big Day: Heading to Apple State Power Sports

Before heading to the dealership, we wrapped up a few things at the Law Abiding Biker Store. As always, Lurch was focused, but you could tell he was pumped. He wanted to be there right at opening—like a kid waiting for Christmas morning! Of course, we had some fun teasing him along the way about wrecking his new bike on the first day (not that we actually wanted that to happen!).

Why a 2024 and Not a 2025?

Lurch had a specific vision for his new ride. He wanted either the White Onyx Pearl with Chrome in the 2024 model or, if he couldn’t find one, he’d settle for the Atlas Silver with Chrome in a 2025. However, with the significant price increase on the 2025 models, he was determined to snag a 2024 if he could. Apple State Power Sports worked their magic, and thanks to Matt, they secured the exact bike Lurch was looking for through a dealer trade.

First Impressions: The Ride Home

After officially sealing the deal and taking care of paperwork (and after a few jokes about Lurch’s questionable insurance status and having no license), it was time to ride. Lurch’s first impressions? A massive improvement over his 2015 Road Glide!

“This thing is so much quicker, so much smoother. I got on the freeway, looked down at the speedometer, and realized I was already going way over the speed limit!”

Yep, the performance upgrades in the 2024 Road Glide were immediately noticeable.

Immediate Must-Have Upgrades from the Law Abiding Biker Store

Of course, no new Harley stays stock for long—especially when you own a store full of high-quality parts! Here are the first things going on Lurch’s new Road Glide:

1. Mueller Power Clutch 2.0

• Why? The stock clutch pull is too firm and clunky. The Mueller Power Clutch 2.0 makes shifting smoother and requires significantly less hand strength—perfect for long rides. It makes the cable clutch fell like a more premium hydraulic clutch system. 

2. PSR Anthem Pro Levers

• Why? The stock clutch friction zone was all the way at Lurch’s fingertips, which can be tiring and inconvenient. The PSR Anthem Pro Levers will allow him to adjust the friction zone exactly where he wants it.

3. Klock Werks Sport Flare Windshield (10-inch, Tinted)

• Why? The stock windshield is too short, especially for taller riders like Lurch. The Klock Werks 10-inch Sport Flare provides better wind protection while adding a sleek, aggressive look.

4. Biker Gripper Motorcycle Phone Mount

• Why? The best and strongest motorcycle phone mount available. No proprietary case required, and it works with the largest smartphones on the market.

5. Ciro Drink Holder

• Why? Staying hydrated is key during long rides, and this mount ensures easy access to a beverage without sacrificing safety.

6. Extended Brake Pedal

• Why? The stock brake pedal is positioned awkwardly, forcing the rider to lift their foot too much. Our Extended Brake Pedal offers a more natural angle and improves overall comfort and safety.

7. Saddlemen Road Sofa Seat

• Why? Long rides demand superior comfort, and the Saddlemen Road Sofa Seat provides excellent back support, better weight distribution, and reduced rider fatigue.
