Hi everyone! I don't ride a trike (I've a 2009 Victory Vision). I'm decided to move to a trike as my left knee and now right knee, are complaining. At 59, I know what's coming down the road.
Anyway, I've seen the new pics of the 2015 Tri-Glide and my mouth is watering. I've also been in discussions with Lehman out in Spearfish. Of course they're touting the benefits of their platform. They say the ride on a Tri-Glide with a solid axle is rough when compared to a comparably equipped Electro Glide conversion using their Limited Lean Suspension (Independent) axle.
Taking a 2015 Electro Glide model and upgrading with Lehman rear-end is pricy, much more expensive when compared to a stock 2015 Tri-Glide. Adding to my dilemma is that I live in northern Virginia and there don't seem to be any Lehman dealers locally. Question comes down to logistics and availability. I'd have to arrange to have the bike converted out at their Spearfish facility. That's time consuming not to mention more costly.
Question is to those folks who've ridden both. Any truth to Lehman claims about the axles?
Thoughts?
