Hi, I am from Iowa, have been riding bikes since I was 16, started out with a 160 honda dream, then a 350 honda, then a 750 honda, then from there went with a 1954 harley, then a 1948 harley chopper, wish I still had those, went a few years without anything, then got a 1997 harley FXSTC, then a 2002 Road King FLHRI, still have them, just bought a 2016 harley triglide in mys red/vel red, it had 3,200 miles on it, it has the bumper on it, tour pak rack plus it has the lighted bar around the tour pack, and a lift kit on it already, also has the clear film to protect the fenders.
I am having the dealer put 12.5 wild one bars on it plus a rider backrest since I have a bad back. The reason for the 12.5 wild ones bars, I test drove a 2014 with stock bars, didn't care for that, test drove another 2014 with the 12.5 wild one bars and loved it. I have high bars on my 97, have hertiage bars on my road king, should have went with high bars there also but the hertiage bars work good. Dealer said they would have to order the parts so I should be able to pick up the triglide in a couple weeks. I could have took it now, but I have to figure how to put the triglide in the garage with the other 2 bikes plus 2 vehicles plus everything else that is in there, so I have my work cut trying to figure out everything.
Have been on this forum looking for a year or so plus other harley forums, have been thinking of a triglide for about 6 months and decided to bite the bullet and do it, not getting any younger so what the heck. I have really enjoyed reading on this forum about different things which I think will help me out in the future. Was thinking of the 2017 triglide, but with new motor I figured wait a few years on that to see how they do.
