Changed the oil on mine today. Got almost 1,000mi on since the engine rebuild. Didn't see any metal shavings so that's a good sign. Hopefully it will be ok this time.

If you lend someone $20 and never see that person again, it was probably worth it.

Re: What did you do to Your Tri-Glide Today?
Picked it up from the dealer after they had to replace the front rocker gasket due to a leak.

Re: What did you do to Your Tri-Glide Today?
I also have one and love the convenience. Yes a little pricey, but cheaper then an oil temp gauge.
I have the cover also, but have only used it once or twice - too much of a hassle to use every day. I just throw a couple bed sheets over it.
Long term storage, yes I would use it for that.
Re: What did you do to Your Tri-Glide Today?
Had wife pickup rear brakes for her 2011 T-glide .(HD=hundred dollars) My take on the rear brakes , not very good , cheap and under size for what its stopping. (MO) 12000 mi. on it and brakes worn to within 1/32" , maybe less on inside pad , outer pad maybe to within 3/32". Just in case you do your own work don't forget to back off parking brake shaft before trying to push in caliper piston , a little something they don't quite explain in the FSM . Also don't screw it in to far with out it being mounted , you can push piston out completely , that is non-repairable according to FSM, as in get your wallet out . Put Dennis' t-glide shock mounts on and t-pak rails on for her too , that was simpler than it looked , except for the 4 trunk bolts through the floor ,3 out of the 4 welded nuts broke loose from their welds . I repaired all 4 on reassembly . Ps went to a Moto Guzzi rally in West Field NY, this past wk-end with my neighbor , great people them Guzzi people . That's all for now ,Greg

Re: What did you do to Your Tri-Glide Today?
I installed the Comfort Lift from DK Customs a couple days ago, and have been riding on smooth to bumpy, straight and twisty roads, and WOW what a difference.
On the bumpy unlevel county roads it handled great, and on the better state roads it was like floating on a cloud, but very hands free stable. Then yesterday I detailed Betty up real nice because a bunch of us were going for a Texas country tour today, but at 6AM I get a call----cancelled because of rain. DRAT, I guess we will go next weekend since I'm the only one of the group retired. So it will be riding solo until then. Now I just ordered a bunch of "Bling" as the kids call it" for Betty. Gotta keep the lady happy with some nice Trike jewelery. She is so purrty.
Re: What did you do to Your Tri-Glide Today?
I bought a cover from HD when I bought my triglide a month ago. I bought the indoor and outdoor cover as I have no garage here at my place. Just a car port. Here in the NW, have a lot of Fir trees and get a lot of Fir needles, sap plus the normal rainy storms. So the outdoor cover will find a lot of use. Going for a test ride today as it was late last night when I finished getting all of the exhaust buttoned up. Put on the Fullsac header pipe. Fit like it should. Started it up to hear the new sound, a little deeper but out on the road should be the real test. There might be a little more get up and go but wanted to get that CAT off. It was burning up my foot. May think about doing the extended floor broads next.
Re: What did you do to Your Tri-Glide Today?
Did you have to buy the FullSac extension to use on the trike? Reason I ask is I have a set off my 2014 FLHXS that I want to put on. Did you stay with the stock mufflers? Tony

Re: What did you do to Your Tri-Glide Today?
Always good to hear how folks are enjoying the Comfort Lift.
Re: What did you do to Your Tri-Glide Today?
When I purchased the header, I told them I was going to put them on a trike and they sent the extension with the set. I did try to put the old extension on as it was chrome but it was really too tight so I put the new extension on. Easier. I had the V&H triglide deluxe mufflers put on when I bought the triglide. They have oval tips and less problems of scraping. They are ok. I like rhineharts. But the header allowed the mufflers come alive a little bit. So I will see how I will like them as time goes on.
Went on a test ride this morning for a couple hours. Like the headers. A little get up and go. I like it. And less heat coming off the right side. Didn't have that "heel of my boot cooking" thing. :-)

Nice UPS man brought us a chrome bumper today which my wife and I promptly installed. Looks nice.

Re: What did you do to Your Tri-Glide Today?
Very cool! We are playing around with different remote oil filter projects.
Good choice on the reusable oil, they make a difference, and if you ride a lot, they are more economical also.
