What did you do to Your Tri-Glide Today?

[DK Custom Products]

Kevin bike looks real clean. Nice coilor as well. Can you tell me where you bought your sheepskin cover and what model it is please.

Sorry, just saw this.

It was a full sheepskin pelt that we purchased well over 10 years ago. Mary cut it down a bit, and also made a slot in it for the riders backrest.

I thought the name of the company was Alaskan Sheepskin, but a quick google search did not find them. I did find a company called Alaska Leather.

There is no model #, it is just a skin, and the riders backrest keeps it on the seat.

Installed a DK Custom tourpak relocation package, we moved it back 2" and the Misses is very happy.

Hey Zammy,

Good to hear...sometimes it's the little things that really make a very nice improvement.

DK 2" Touring Model Tank Lift and Deluxe Tank Lift Option installed last night.

DK Comfort Lift Trike Lift installed this morning.

26lbs in shocks, and rear tires, 36lbs in front tire.

Took the torque wrench for a 220 mile ride this afternoon.

Rechecked those lug nuts twice in route.

Great fit, Great feel, Love the Ride.

Recommend these kits to anyone who wants a better ride than the stock setup.

Need to put in a new battery and we're ready to go for the summer.

Rode to the monthly HOG meeting. Also had the extended brake lever removed and the OE one put back on. The extended pedal sits to far forward for my short legs to really be able to apply good foot pressure

My reverse has been going bad for a few months now.

Finally dropped the TG off at the dealership yesterday for a warranty replacement.

Well, don't I feel like an idiot. When I bought my 2016 Tri-Glide I was told a drink holder will not fit on it for the passenger. Then one day I'm looking at Kevin's Web Page and I see he has one that will fit the 2016 for the passenger!?

I ordered the passenger holder tonight which will make my wife super happy since she has been greatly missing having a cup holder since we traded a GoldWing Motorcycle for the Tri-Glide.

Now, if I can just figure out if I should get the "perch mount" or the bar mount for me up front. I have stock bars...not much room to hang stuff.

Yeah, Mary really, really enjoys having her coffee cup holder!

Stock bars don't afford a lot of room for hanging stuff off, but those mounts can contort to all kinds of weird angles...just keep trying different ways til it clears everything.

Installed the DK tourpac relocater and went for my first ride of this season. yea!!

[MikeyTX]

Rode up to the dealer for the yearly inspection. Once that was done, came home because it was supposed to rain which of course it didn't. I could have ridden it to the store that sells our renewal sticker for the plate. Great that they do. No need to wait in line at the tax office.

I installed my tank lift kit and went for a very short ride the weather is rotten. As always good quality and service from DK.!!

Let's see, so far I've installed (all from DK Customs):

- Rear Lift for Shocks (highly recommended, makes a HUGE difference in handling and my shoulders thank me)

- 1 1/2" Deluxe Tank Lift (front and rear)

- Floorboard extensions

- Trike Touring Deflector Wings

- Premium Discrete Breather System

- Chrome Bobber Style Complete HiFlow Air Cleaner for TwinCam

- DynoJet Power Vision Flash Tuner with AutoTune

- V&H Trike Deluxe Slip-on Mufflers

To be installed:

- Kuryakin Brake Pedal Extender

- Tour-Pak Relocator Kit

- Oil Filter Relocation/Oil Cooler Combo for H-D Trikes

I do have a question on how to mount the oil cooler on the Twin-Cooled Trike; there doesn't appear to be enough clearance between the frame downtube and the coolant line for the plastic mounting brackets to fit. I'm assuming the coolant bracket bolted to the frame crossmember needs to be loosened and moved over to the starboard/right side of the crossmember?

Added some .50 cal dummy rounds to my trike (run with a vet group, attend many functions, and slowly building a theme to my scoot). I never use ratio or cb (run spotify through phone connected to aux jack), so I dont miss the reception loss

Cost was under 30 bucks (already had drill & tap set on hand, as well as red loctite)





ETA: After pitting several thousand on it over the winter (through cold, rain, sleet, & snow), finally gave it a deep cleaning yesterday, first time since end of September (including scrubbing all the road salt off the undercarriage)...can finally tell it's two-tone & metallic blue again <3

Wow, that is great! I'm sure your enjoying your TG with these mods.

There is some hardware that comes with the Dual Cool oil cooler that spaces the lines out, giving enough room for the clamps.

Rode it quite a bit last week. We had a cold snap, and it was nice to have the fairings.

Also been testing a new External Breather System.

Many months ago my reverse started going bad.

About a month ago I took it in for them to replace it under warranty.

They checked it out and said, yep it's bad, but we don't have one in stock, it'll be about a week.

I took it back home. Finally took it back in yesterday to get it replaced. They got it done in less than 2 hours.

Sure is nice to have my reverse again!



I think the weather has finally turned...probably time to put my shorter windshield on.

[graygoat]

Put a DK EBS on today, went for a 25 miles run and then rechecked everything. All is well.

[FuLong]

Not today, but this winter...

Under warranty:

• Complete new trunk
  
• new radio, because of damaged navigation by FW-update
  

Ordered by me:

• Baker reverse - great thing
  
• SE 255 camshafts with stronger valve springs
  
• DK comfort lift kit
  
• Penzl exhaust with manual "volume" control
  

Now it drives really more comfortable and steers better, has more tourque from lower revolutions, the sound is with closed valve a bit louder, but deep and mellow, if open, it turns to inferno

The reverse is a big increase over the original...I think driving forward is overestimated

For all this I spent a lot of money, but it's worth, every cent!
