[QUOTE=tbird71;656287]I had a 98 GL1500 didn't like the lite front end on it
Wife and I roade a new 18 Tri Glide last summer and I loved it
for the way I ride it was all the trike I wanted and stable as heck
but 40K OTD was a bit more than i wanted to spend at that moment...
FF to today, I had looked at several tri glides 2013 down to get a cheaper buy in, then this 2014 became available, real close to the 18 model except the M8 motor, I own a police 103 now and can easily live with it. So I'm a Tri Glide person now. I really believe this is the trike for me. How's she look, guys? (bra coming off back fenders)

[B]Question: Do these come with oil coolers, or do I need to get one if not??[/B][/QUOTE]
They do not come with oil coolers, nor does HD make them. The water pump is in the traditional location of an oil cooler.
Unfortunately these Twin Cooled need an oil cooler even more than the air cooled...HD uses hotter cams and higher compression in the Twin Cooled. See more info on the subject [URL="http://www.dkcustomproducts.com/why-how-to-cool-down-the-twin-cam-engine-part-i-dk-cl-tc-dn-1.htm"]HERE[/URL].
After I got my '14 Tri Glide we developed the [URL="http://www.dkcustomproducts.com/twin-cooled-oil-cooler-c616-135.htm"]Twin Cooled Oil Cooler[/URL]. It does a great job at lowering oil and engine temps.
There is a thread on the forum here with pics, and info on the development and testing of these, along with other good info...
