Popular Harley-Davidson® Customizations

Apr. 7 2020 Lifestyle By ___

Harley-Davidson motorcycles are built for easy customization. After all, it's tough for a motorcycle straight from the factory to suit all of your needs and wants. A few tweaks and upgrades can transform your ride into one optimized for your lifestyle. But with all the options out there, it's tough knowing which customization to get. 

We've gathered up popular Harley customizations to help you get started. If you have questions or want assistance customizing your Harley motorcycle, visit the experts at Crystal Harley-Davidson. Our dealership is based in Homosassa, Florida, and we also serve those in New Port Richey, Spring Hill, and St. Petersburg.

A Windshield

Windshields help keep the wind, rain, kicked-up debris, and even bugs from hitting you. They make your ride more comfortable and even help improve your rider endurance since you'll be experiencing reduced wind fatigue. Harley-Davidson offers many windshields in various styles to choose from, including detachable options. Add the windshield for longer rides when you want improved endurance and detach it when you want to feel the wind in your face!

Handlebars

If you are shorter or taller than average, then the default riding position on your Harley motorcycle may not be quite right. Maybe you are stuck stretching and straining to reach. Maybe you are stuck hunching over to fit. Either way, different handlebars can make all of the difference! Harley-Davidson has a wide selection of handlebar options so you can find the perfect fit for your hands, wrists, shoulders, and back.

Lighting

Upgrade your motorcycle's headlights with one of the many Harley lighting customizations. They offer a better beam, making it easier to see and be seen. But that's not all! Some come with cutting-edge technology, such as the ability to automatically project light in the amount you need throughout your ride.

Hand Grips

Harley-Davidson custom hand grips can improve the comfort, style, or both of your ride! The Airflow collection, for example, is made to improve the comfort of your ride. The innovative crosshatched rubber traction is cut to give you the most control while the 1.6'' diameters keep the handles easy to grip. If you want to stand out, check out the Willie G Skull collection. These striking hand grips will have you turning heads wherever you go.

Seating

The longer your rides are, the more important comfortable seating becomes! There are many Harley custom seats that can improve your riding experience. Some position you closer to the foot and hand controls, making the riding position more enjoyable. Some come with a backrest to boost the comfort of your ride even more. Some can even be paired with a passenger seat, keeping yourself and your riding buddy comfortable even on long rides.

Harley® Custom Upgrade Kits

Harley-Davidson customizations can even be purchased as an upgrade kit. This allows you to skip the research and hunting down of each individual item. Instead, you can buy one kit and know everything inside it is already confirmed to be compatible with each other.

Some of these Harley kits focus on boosting the comfort of your ride. Some focus on improving the performance. Others even add stunning style and flair to your motorcycle. Whatever types of customizations you want to pursue, you can find upgrades kits to match!
