Tri (road) glide
[ATTACH=CONFIG]49994[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]49995[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]49996[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]49997[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]49998[/ATTACH]
Here's what happens when I get tired of waiting for Harley to do it. I just added a Road Glide Fairing to my 2013 TRI GLIDE. And it was not easy. Just let it go as it's not a bolt on.

Too cool! I asked that question not long ago - I like it! And I can assume that the 2nd time you do that for me will be much easier...Thanks!

Anything is possible when you have both electrical schematics available, the time, all the available parts and the patience. Very nice and different. :clapping:

I'm drooling on key board.VERY NICE.One question did you relocate the steering stabilizer.

Way cool Ted! Looks awesome!

Great looking trike. The Road-Glide look make a real nice looking trike.

There is actually a PDF write up, in 2 parts I believe, on that exact mod. I think it was done by hot bike mag about 6 years ago. They have th parts list in the article. I'm sure in needs a little updating but it's been done quite a bit. Even in reverse, road/Electra glide to road king basically. Beautiful bike sir & nice work!

When I worked for a shop in PA they had an FLT that someone damaged the fairing on, a lot of rewiring and finding the right parts it became an FLHS with some mods. This is the only pic of the bike I have left it was posted on another forum, as my sticks with photos had been stolen last year. :mad:

No I had to modify the mounting bracket and the housing for the Tach/Speedo but it works fine and its in the stock location.

WOW!!!
Very nice work, and a fantastic result!
Questions-
Have you noticed any differences in the ride...wind/buffeting, handling, etc.?
Is noticeably easier to steer?
Anything else you can share about what it's like to ride?
Looks great man!

Kevin I just finished it Thursday and have only put 20 miles on it. My previous conversion I did the road glide fairing on also. Anyway I expect more stable ride in windy conditions. It felt like it was going to be. Airflow around me was really less. I love the look and if it ends up the same as previously then the ride will be great also. Heading to the mountains of N. Georgia on the 18th so a better assessment will be forth coming. The only problem? so far is I purchased a tinted windshield. I don't know if I like it or not. It is an F4 and so replacing it will be awhile if I do not get used to the tint. The view is great just the tint being so high in my vision line is distracting on my test ride.
