I've always liked the Heritage Classic model from Harley Davidson. It's a modern motorcycle that has a look usually only seen on much older Harley Davidson motorcycles, plus it comes with useful hard saddle bags and a windshield, which can easily be taken off to transform the bike into your typical cruiser. It's the perfect model if you want a stock Harley Davidson motorcycle to use for real transportation needs, and not just for the occasional weekend joy ride around town. But like a big green bug squashed on your windshield that you can't walk by and ignore, it has a very high MSRP, which is $22,999 plus another grand for certain color options. After you add on all the other fees associated with buying a new motorcycle, total cost comes close to $25,000 for a 2025 Harley Davidson Heritage Classic. Is it worth it?
