Not that I know of...but this is not my area of expertise. I did tell J&J that the line was for ABS and linked brakes.

Went and picked up my reworked front brake line today. J&J's is where I went 5 years ago when I had to do the same thing for my '14.
It is nice, in this day and age, when there is a company that can do something that is not "in the book", when they can actually think thru a process, understand the challenge, and come up with a solution...AND do it when they say they will. Kudo's to J&J Hi-Performance!
I carried over the line (a line the HD Dealership said that no one made, nor would any of their suppliers make with any guarantee that it would fit) to the Dealership. They should have the bar installation complete early next week.
Then I can get my film finished, do the ceramic over the film, and then start installing some of the parts that are piling up. lol
Plus, I have a bunch of testing to do and document. ACK! Plus I'm leaving for the Black Hills in less than 2 months!

Kevin, what about the clutch line? I'm kinda surprised that with the brake line having to be extended so much the clutch line would fit without extension.

The dealership had an extension kit that had extensions for the Clutch and Brake Lines....for some reason the clutch line was long enough and the brake line was not. Makes no sense....but that is actually what happened on the '14 also.
6 months or so after I did the special line for the '14, the aftermarket had them...and I'm sure that within another few months the aftermarket will catch up on the '19's too.

Dang Kevin ... looks like that would of been a great time to do the rake kit too ... from the look of the trike ... you're halfway there.

Yeah, prolly more than halfway there.
But I need to do a bunch of testing and documenting before the rake kit. Plus, when I do the rake kit, I also video it and come up with an installation video out of it.

Always solid info from your tried and trued installs and upgrades:clapping:
I get it ... you let HD do the bars to keep the electrics warrantee ... looking forward to seeing the video. I suspect I can do this myself ... but ... I did steering head bearings on the black wing (Helga) and ended up having to have Don come over to get the proper torque ... definitely a two man job. If I do one (Rake Kit), I will probably get the pro from Dover (Zook) do it.
rake kit
Who is Dover Zook. And what kind of rake kits doe's he have to offer ? Are they like a
ez steering set up?

Dang! They took the entire inner fairing off. Looking good though...

It's an Old Expression ... "The pro from Dover". In this case, Randy, "Papa Zook" the owner of this forum, just means in My Humble Opinion, he's the best. He sells/installs rake kits designed for these bikes/trikes.

Thanks man!
Yeah, I've never been to Zook's Cut-n-Shoot Customs...so been toying with the idea of riding out there and doing the rake kit out there...get the install video done with the pro!
Dang! They took the entire inner fairing off.
Yep, she looks nekkid! lol
Talked to the dealership today...I'm getting ants in my pants, hopefully I'll be picking it up this weekend. Got to start putting some miles on her and testing various things.

I've been considering going to the Kerrville thing again and swinging by either before or after the gathering to see his shop ... I've seen his tike ... and that was sweet ... so ... the shop must be sweet too ... LOL ... that's logical right ... right ????
Was wandering around the internet today and found a rain cover that claims it is waterproof.....Roadsofa Rain Cover with backrest. I have no idea if it really is waterproof since I don't own one, but thought I'd share the link since most of the other ones I've seen say they are not waterproof. Says it fits all H-D's and is $4 less than the H-D version that isn't waterproof.

:laugh: Well, that does not hold true with us. We have some pretty sweet bikes and Trike, but our shop...well, it is over-crowded and not so great looking. :xzqxz:
Nice find. I have not ordered the HD one yet...may give this one a try.
Thanks,
Kevin
Maybe ... but look what comes out of it ...
... I'd love to come see it and drool over the bikes.
Oddly, the last drop down selection for the Tri Glide Model Year only has 09-14.:xzqxz:

Come on! You're welcome anytime.
Yeah, I saw that too. It's a big task to keep a website up to date.
