Hi All,
Looking for the reason for the very hot engine on my new tri-glide. I have finally gotten a chance to get it out and ride it and for the first hundred miles all was well but after I stopped to visit someone and left it turned off for about half hour and then got back on it and started to ride, the heat on my right leg was almost unbearable, I am short, don't know if that makes any difference, so my leg is stretched to reach my brake and it felt like my skin was burning, I mentioned this to a few other Harley riders and they just said, you get used to it, I am leaving on a trip to New Orleans in a week or so but am having second thoughts if I am going to be suffering with a burning leg, any suggestions.........the tri glide runs perfect, I never expected such a wonderful, smooth, effortless ride and have no complaints except the burning leg....:>)
