The colors of the flakes are roughly the colors in the graphics. Great in the sun.
One thing I noticed when checking mine at the dealer ( not ready yet) is the graphics on the rear fenders are close in by the trunk body. But, on pic on website they are down middle of the fender and more to outside. I thought MAYBE they movrd them to keep them from getting kicked up? Wife thought they would look better in center/ outer edge.
I wonder which came first, my bikes build or the one on the website.

Ravenwolf, where are your fender graphics placed?
Based on the literature I have read it seems like the 2015 triglide is identical to the 2014 except for color changes. My dealer has not received a 2015 yet. Those of you that have acquired one or seen one is my conclusion valid? Thanks

njtrike, no differences. They did a ton in 2014 and raised the price to prove it! Not much price increase this year and it all looks the same to me. I HEAR they fixed all the wet-head bugs?
I picked up my 2015 'Black Magic' yesterday. They did the high beam with spots setting for free and I had the cat surgery with their pipe swapout deal. Ordered a new rack with lite bar and I'm ready to start putting stuff back on that came off my trade. I figure I have a couple hot afternoons of putting stuff on.
I had to laugh at myself twice trying to figure out how to start it and get it to go in reverse. A couple new changes
Also, looks like the windsheild is shorter?
Not sure I'll EVER figure out the info system!
picked up my 2015 Tri Glide today! was rough getting use to 3 wheels at first, but after a few miles was starting to get much more comfortable. It's a sweet ride!!!!

That is a nice looking trike..Have fun!!
I hear ya. I had a devil of a time with all the re-locations. Parking brake, PTT switch(had to add), reverse button, cruise control. I traded a 2012TG for a 2014TG last Sept. I'm still learning the infotainment system especially the GPS. Sure glad I kept my Zumo. If you have another GPS - KEEP IT.
Not sure the fairing vent does much good if you add the windshield pouch. I don't notice any difference open or closed.
Windshield is shorter so I bought one to keep it at the same level as the pre Rushmore model.
There wasn't to many things that can be installed on the new TG from the older models. At least my Anarchy wheels fit and my Zepplin seat.
Did it come with those graphics or did you have someone paint them???? I like the color a lot better then plain black.
Congrats on your NEW BABY - ENJOY IT
Black Magic is one of Harley's custom colors for 2015 (along with Radioactive Green) that comes with the graphics from the factory.
I haven't even tried the GPS yet, that will be later. I've set up a bunch of preset FM stations, and attached my iPod to the Infotainment system already, but have a long way to go with learning all that it can do.
The dealer did install the DK Custom TriGlide lift kit for me (techs at the dealer were impressed with how it changed the handling and ride) as well as the rear bumper, transparent paint guard kit, air-wing luggage rack and LED light kit prior to picking it up. This weekend I'm putting on my Mustang seat and a few other "nice to have" accessories.

I've been a strictly vivid back guy for a very long time, but I could do the black magic. I really like the color. Congrats.
Made a little road trip today to Thunder Creek HD in Chattanooga, Tn. They only had one 2015 Trike in the new White color. Looks like Pearl white with Silver flakes. Price tag on it was $35,895 with just standard equipment. dash and gages have changed, control switches, and the Accessory switch, Cruise switch are not on the dash any longer. Reverse switch is different. Nice touch screen for info.

If you lend someone $20 and never see that person again, it was probably worth it.
Congrats again ~ it's a beautiful machine.Picked up my 2015 Tri Glide today! was rough getting use to 3 wheels at first, but after a few miles was starting to get much more comfortable. It's a sweet ride!!!!

It was cloudy on the day I picked her up and took the initial pictures, so it did the color no justice. Here are new pics of her. These show the color much better, but still have to see it in person to really appreciate the Black Magic paint!

Ravenwolf, glad to see your rear fender graphics are placed like mine, which is NOT how shown on HD page? I think they will be a bit more kick-protected there.
I got my new grips on, and bumper, highway pegs and driver seat back with cable adjust on from old bike. Waiting for my rack w/ red led lites ( I got the chrome one), chrome water pump cover and footboard/peddle set to come in.
Not that I'll ever need the extra luggage rack but it makes a great handle to lift the storage lid by and I think it strengthens the flimsy lid quite a bit. Plus, I like the extra rear lites!
Garage door opener fits nice in the ipod door ( no ipod here).
If I have trouble with the GPS I still have my smart phone GPS which is better than my old Nuvi with crappy battery!
So far I LOVE the Black Magic with graphics. I have no idea what colors will be next year but I may be in trouble if they either use the new Jade Green ( In solid or 2-tone with black}, or the new brite Superior blue color ! I'm expecting the Superior blue next year since it is on the Freewheeler this year?
