2023 Harley-Davidson Low Rider ST vs. Low Rider S Dimensions

While the 2023 Harley-Davidson Low Rider ST and Low Rider S have many of the same dimensions — length, rake, trail, and seat height to name a few — there are a few key differences to note. Because it’s a sport touring bike, the Low Rider ST has removable and lockable clamshell saddlebags that add 1.9 cubic feet of cargo carrying space and a frame-mounted fairing inspired by the FXRT. This helps make the Low Rider ST a slightly heavier bike. Both bikes are made for lone-wolf riding with a deep solo seat.
