    Default New to Forum, Harley Freewheeler in the future plans.

    New to forum but not new to Harley Davidson Motorcyles,

    I have been riding now legally for over 30 years on two wheelers and riding Harley Mortorcyles now for quite a few of these years. I had knee surgery a few years back on the right knee and find as time goes buy the Road King or the bigger Harley bikes are a little hard on the knee two up sometimes but things are still managble. With that said I have wanted a Harley Trike since they came out even before the knee issue or sugery because I thought they were just plain cool but the wife was not quite there yet. Also we or she was put off by the cost of a Tri Glide verses a top line two wheeled Harley Motorcycle such as the Road King, Street Glide and so on. We love the touring bikes but our style does not support the Ultra platform.

    Now at 51 years old and the knee issue as we get ready for our next Harley purchase the wife is starting to see the light. She does not want a Tri Glide nor do I at this time as we like the Road King style best and have come to this conclusion after owning several diffrent Harley models over the years. The new Freewheeler looks like it is going to be the perfect fit for us on this next purchase ( will take me back to my Big Wheels when I was a kid, boy the things we did on those. Lol ).

    We hope to purchase in October of this year 2015 a few months out but this will allow for a big down payment on a new Freewheeler and all adjustments will have been made to the buget for the new purchase. We look forward to getting into the Harley Trike seen and I have enjoyed reading the information on this forum. Like Srewball said I tend to be more a no frills guy and feel again the Tri Glide would be a little much and think again the Harley Freewheeler will be just right for our style as well as our style of riding.

    Any feedback or sugestions would be greatly appreciated.

    Thank You All And Ride Safe,
    Bill G

    Welcome to the Forum. I converted my RK to a trike and that was before the freewheeler was made. It is a good looking trike

    Welcome to the forum! I bought my Freewheeler right before Christmas and I love it. After many years on 2 wheels we tried a GL1800 trike about 4 years ago but I just wasn't ready for a trike so I sold it. Since then the wife has ridden very few miles with me. Now that we have the Freewheeler she is riding again. This trike has plenty of power, rides good and is cool looking. I also like a "back to basics" machine. Reminds me of my Road King.

    Have fun!

    Welcome to the board. I too have been riding Harleys for nearly 50 years. Old age and bad joints got me off my '08 Ultra and onto a Tri-Glide. Traded the '09 for the '15 Freewheeler Sept 2, 2014. Nearly 4,000 miles so far, and wife and I are on a 'tour' of Arizona for the next few weeks. Should add another 2000 miles by the time we get back to California. Freewheelers are sweet bikes....er.... TRIKES.

    I'm 70, wife is 63. This is my 2nd Harley Trike, her 3rd.

    Just saw your location, we are 80 miles down I-5 in Santa Clarita. We are in Bullhead City, Az. right now, and spend a lot of the summer here. Keep in touch, we can meet up when you get your scoot.

    That sounds great the wife and I would really like that. I am really looking forward to getting the Freewheeler but like mentioned before I will have to wait untill around October of this year.

    The wife and I love to ride with great people and will be looking forward to the day we can meet up. I would love for you to fill me in on what you have learned about the Harley Trikes. I will have a learning curve ahead of me for sure.

    Thanks, Steve
