What did you do to Your Tri-Glide Today?

[prariepilot]

I put Comfortred's on the rear the other day.Even though I have around 30k miles on the front tire (rear tire reversed), I still have 5-8k miles I could go on it. But since we're getting ready to leave on a 10k mile trip, I just ordered an Avon Trike front tire.I've had great experience with the Dyna Beads over the years, but because of the puncture protection, I'm going to give the Ride-On a try in this tire.

Last week I contacted Kevin to get the Dunlop REAR tire for the front of the TG (I got one from him last year at an incredible price). Kevin checked with Devin and told me this year's price had gone up significantly, then recommended the Avon tire for the front, as he was considering this option also. He even put me onto a competitor's website where the price was very reasonable and shipping was free. I followed his recommendation and ordered one. It came today.

This is an example of the exceptionally outstanding business practice you can expect from Kevin and Devin. They go above and beyond to see that us "trikers" are getting the best possible ride and performance out of our bikes. There should be more businesses like this, but as long as we have DK, we need to look no further!

Tire and new bearings get assembled into the new powder coated front wheel tomorrow....

....pics to folloow when the final assembly is complete.

Looking good!

You've greatly increased the odds of being seen, even by distracted, texting cagers!

Got the extended shift levers and extended brake pedal installed, little test ride, missed a couple of shifts, lol. You wouldn't think 1" fore and aft would make much difference but muscle memory kicks in.

Yep, 1" can make a big difference.

Installed the new heated anniversary seat last night. All the stitching is blue to match the anniversary legend blue paint.

Yesterday - Rode to and from Phoenix. Did a quick roadside repair when my shift lever came off. Found it laying in the bottom of the lower fairing and across the floorboard assembly. Very lucky it stayed there at 70+. Not sure how it came off.

Gave it a good wash when I got home.

Today - Applied the first coat of F11. I don't think it is my imagination but it seems to have an extra shine and sparkle to it. I will know more about how good it is after a couple more applications.

It's a Harley thing. Soon you will be checking it frequently.

Your trike looks pretty.

Replaced license plate (incandescent) light with LEDs!

Stock lights are located in the trunk handle, have to remove

plastic cover on inside of trunk door - easy job.......but much

improved lighting.

What is your opinion on the paint matched parts? I pushed the bike outside in between the rain.

I like it a LOT! Looks really good.

If you would have described it to me, I would not have thought it would look so good...but it really pops.

Nice touches there!!

Just got back from a couple days riding with my BIL (he has a 15 Tri). Trike rode great, really like the DK rear lift/shock combo. 626 miles and great weather too. Don't get much better than this!

[RAHRAHJR]

Just installed rear bumper and SE tuner. I already had the Street cannon slip on mufflers, and a week or so ago installed an Arlen Ness Stage 1 Big Sucker under the stock cover. It seamed to run just fine. Now with the tuner and the straight stage 1 download, it does seam smoother and cooler. Next I will do some of the auto tune runs. I do have a stock head pipe with the cat removed but wont install until after my 1000 mile service.

Finally got some work done on the triglide today. Put in the CB module and a set of lighted switches. As was previously noted here, the right side that has the ptt button had to be replaced and for about 60 more dollars, I bought both sides that's lighted. Only downside to it was a little more work changing out both sides. Also installed a chrome fairing vent insert while the fairing was off. Was very anxious to see if the CB would work without the radio flash. It works just fine. Strange how you read on here some need the flash others don't.

I installed a CB in my 17TG. My son has a 15 Altera Limited and didn't use the CB so we took it off his bike and installed on the Trike. The interesting thing was, that all the wiring was already on the trike. right down to the squelch/PTT button. We switched the 2 bottom buttons and it worked perfectly.
