Rode mine in the snow to drop it off at the shop for new handle bars, grips and a few other things. I went with the KW 2+2 wide sweepers and ISO grips. I think I'll have a much more comfortable ride when I get it back.

Got my 2016 TG seat back from Mean City Cycles Friday. Beautiful workmanship and a great veteran-owned company to do business with. Couldn't be happier.

I'm going to replace the rear brake pads on my 2016 Triglide while I have it on the lift for the axle bearing retaining plate upgrade. They should be here from J&P today. Question: once the parking brake is loose and the cap is off the rear brake reservoir, should the rear brake piston be pushed back flush with the housing or does it stick out a 16th of an inch or so? The manual doesn't state which. I don't want to force it flush if that's not the way it should be. Thanks.

I purchased my 2020 TriGlide there in August this year. They were very much open and selling record number of bike/ trikes.

Ha! 55 degrees here today so I went for a little 60 mile putt around the county. Didn't have a particular route in mind just turned on to a couple different roads I knew of and then turned off on to some I've never been on. Found some interesting two lane county roads with some nice twists and turns. Nice thing is being able to tell the gps to take me home as I was in some unfamiliar territory toward the end of my little adventure.
I picked mine up today from having the KW 2+2 Wide sweepers installed and Kuryakan ISO grips installed. All I can say is it's like riding a different trike. No pain and no fatigue by the time I got home. I can sit up straight and more comfortable. My arms are more relaxed and no tingling or numbness. I don't even have to lean forward to turn tight corners like before. I can sit upright in the saddle and turn lock to lock. Amazing upgrade.
The ISO grips came with the throttle boss which was no big deal since it's easily removed. I don't think I will take it off. I actually liked it on the ride home more than I thought I would. So it just turned out to be a bonus.
I can't wait for the weather to clear up ( rain and snow for the next few days) so I can ride my ass off, LOL.

They did find this in the fairing. No wires were harmed so all is good.

Was this a Harley dealer that install them for you? And would you mind if I asked you what they charge you for installing them?
Local Indie shop. $275 for the install of bars and grips, $130 for the bars, $18 for wire extensions and $89 for the grips plus tax.
I didn't think it was too bad.

I put my winter windshield on, changed out my highway pegs, put the soft lowers on.
Then went for a 80 mile putt with Mary.
