What did you do to Your Tri-Glide Today?

[DK Custom Products]

I plan on installing the new cooler taking it out getting it hot and record the temps. A good friend of mine says that Amsoil oil will run cooler hard to believe so I'm going to try it. Thank you for your thoughtful advice. Travel safe Fred

Some oils definitely run cooler than others. I've never tested the difference between Mobil 1 and Amsoil...but just in case, I would wait until after you make your oil cooler change out and test before changing oils.

It would be a bummer if the temps are cooler after you changed the cooler but did not know if/how much of it was because of the cooler vs. the oil.

That is my plan after all temperatures are recorded with Mobil 1. Then just may. Redo test with both coolers with Amsoil just to see the difference thank for the input.

The whole weekend has been a washout filled with Thunderstorms, Tornado Watches and Flash Flood Warnings. Since there was no mods or maintenance that need to be done, I decided to give the trike a good washing early Friday morning to get rid of a lot of that accumulated pollen. Yesterday I gave the sheepskin cover an energetic brush and comb. Today, I brought the seat and saddle bags inside and gave them a good cleaner/conditioner treatment.

This made the weekend not a total loss.....but I would much rather have been riding.

A few days ago I purchased an action camera and nothing that came with it seemed to lend itself to the Harley. So I ordered one designed for the Batwing faring. We shall see how it works as time goes on. By the way bugs are a good thing we all know what they mean. LOL

UTV Distribution Amazon marketplace. Designed and marketed by Riders made in USA to boot

Got in 320 miles today. About 100 along the Ohio River. Got back to 3 miles from home & rain started. Barely wet pulling into garage. Must have passed 100 bikes today ,all on the 2 lanes. Great day for a ride. 84* most of the day but we had a lot of shade on those 2 lanes.

Ride tomorrow plant garden possibly Monday beautiful day today. I hope tomorrow will be as nice. Ride safe Fred/Jeanne

Great ride sun warm good people friendly and no chin diapers. Old Shiney ran and rode like a fine sports Trike LOL. I still can get over how great it rides and handles... Wow Travel safe Fred

Just ordered the Trike tire for the front of the FBG ... I think it’s the Cobra AV91.

Also ordered a pair of the Goodyear Comfort Treads for the rear. The local Indy shop is gonna mount them all and install them with ride on. No weights. And, no getting on the ground for Alan ... whooo hooo.

I have lots of tread, but, the born dates are 1511, so they are 5 years +. Around here in the arid climate, 5 years is the “I really should change the tires“ date.

One step closer to getting the FBG on a long trip ... I really need to clear the old brain bucket .

I just put in a couple hundred dollar order for "stuff", paint, rollers, brushes, lights, screws and fender washers to mount the boards, etc for my trike trailer. Gonna do some upgrades on it. Well, not really upgrades, more like maintenance. Gonna upgrade the lights to LED's. Some of the wooden floor has "bowed" and pulled through the screws. Not a big thing, but, bugs me. Gonna redo the screws with fender washers. Then I will do a good coat of oil based paint on the floor and sprinkle play sand on that. When it dries, I'll put a second coat on it to seal it all. Then I'll replace the lights, and maybe paint the metal parts too ... at least that is the plan.

Had XPEL clear bra installed on rear fenders, side covers and filler between fenders and side cover

[Fearless]

I had those wheels off and I have put about 50 miles since so time to recheck the tightness. Everything was good in lug nut land 105Lbs. tight just like the first time I tightened them up. Another 50 or so miles I'll check again easy to do costly if not... Fred

[FuzzyWuzHe]

Adjusted the rear tire pressure to 26# and the shocks to 3 clicks each ... read about it in my shock thread. Also adjusted the parking park, was getting a little sloppy.

After that, all I did was "Ride Sally Ride" ... couple Hundred miles of mind clearing bliss ... Might have to slow my roll soon ... LOL ... gas is $220 a gallon for Hi Test now ... that's up $0.40 a gallon in two weeks.

Hello,

I have a 2012 TriGlide. I put a a new Balance angle sensor in today. I put this in because I had to unplug it to get back home from about 200 miles away. This did not however fix the problem. I keep getting P0132 and P0152 codes. The bike will start and then die after about 1 second. Any ideas as to what could be happening. Last week I put a new chrome voltage regulator in. I did notice that the voltage is higher than it used to be on the Volt gauge.

Other recent upgrades. RC Xcelerator tuner and stage 1 air cleaner.

Help

Thanks

Rick

Your codes are related to the front and rear O2 sensors, have you made any other changes to your trike?

See this link on how to check for codes

Got a call today ... my trike goes to the indy shop to get the Cobra trike front tire and the Goodyear Comfort tread rears mounted on Wednesday ... could have been tomorrow, but, I'm dog sitting my God Dogs ... their human is working from home and the first two business days of the month she is busy closing the prior month's accounting. Apparently, the dogs are no help with that. Go figure.

New shoes for the baby! My rear tires on my 2017 look like they will last 60,000.

I still have not put my new Avon Cobra front tire on yet, I got side-tracked with heart surgery. I will wait till the fall.

Just rode around for my coffee run, and in the afternoon went shopping...I haven't been able to break away from the homestead lately with the Trike that is...Can't carry chainsaws gas and dirt bikes on the trike...

As we all know I put larger diameter tires on the Old Trike this past cold season. We have not had an opportunity to be out after sunset. Until the last time we were out we did get back after dusk, and wouldn't you know it the person who does all the work on this fine ride never adjusted the headlight to match the new stance. I really slowed down those last 3 or 4 miles critters were out and about. So this evening we went out for a short purposeful ride with a Phillips screwdriver to adjust the light where it needs to be. I may have to make a socket to adjust the passing lamps, suppose to rain tomorrow that will give me time to get that done. Ride safe Fred
