So folks I bought my conversion kit in the spring of 2013 and was wondering just when your going to get around to offering a set of leather bra's to fit the front of my trike fenders?

Get on the stick :Turkey:

Isn't that the pillow top?

The earlier bikes came that way.

Thanks sully, that's a stock seat for the 1989 Tour glide ultra, I've never seen any reason to have a different one.
It's a bit of a pain to clean around the buttons but my backside says it's worth it.

You wouldn't need a bra if you wasn't going down gravel roads or off-roading that thing. Would ya?

Fat chance of that for me with my 3 1/2 miles of gravel just to get to pavement of some kind.

Wait till you get as decrepit as the rest of the sorry bastards on this forum and actually get around to adding an extra leg to that slippery hog of yours and find you have a whole new set of irritations?
Such as bugs splattering on your fenders or rock chips?
I have the see through bra from one of our sponsors but am always changing things up and decided I want a leather fender bra.
Champion emailed me this morning and state they have no plans to offer any at this time and suggest I try the internet?
There are fender bras offered even some for the tri-glide but I doubt they will be a good fit on my champion?
I don't like Harleys answer anyway to junky lookin for me and so I guess I will just have to break down and make my own?

That right there is exactly what has held me back. I see how much more Tubberware is involved. I have enough trouble keeping two wheels relative clean. No, strike that, I can't keep it clean. PERIOD.

Ya mean there is no kit that is self cleaning??? I'm doomed.:laugh:

What the hell are grandkids for?

The little woman seen through that shit along time ago, what's the other purpose behind having kids for that matter?

I hear ya but my one and only is 1800 miles away and I'm out in the country so I can't hi-jack any neighbor munchkins. But I got my dream of a small ranch. Pretty much screwed the pooch though with relatives. I got the heck out of California but my daughter liked it too much still. She's changed her mind but now she's stuck. Took me 25 years to worm a way out. Oh well, time to move on before I start crying in my coffee.

Brand New Champion kit on 97 Heritage

New to the Trike world. Wife has bad Knee and was afraid to ride for fear of falling over. After much discussion, we decided to go with a Champion Kit. Ordered it about 2 months ago, and it is finshed now. However, while my freind the Harley Dealer MEch and his brother and I were building it in the evenings I got a hankering for a change myself. Took my 06 Road King with a Texas Side Car down to the Dealer and did a deal on a new 15 Tri Glide. Been riding it pretty much every decent day we've had here in the midwest since. Much easier to handle than the Hack. We finsihed my wifes Trike about three weeks ago. It is 97 Heritage Dedication Bike.

It is the Bike I taught my son to ride who has since passed away.

Wife loves it and isn't afraid to fall over now.

Will be in Sturgis at Hog Heaven this year so Look for the two Red Trikes. hers is named Tazmanian Angel cause we called our son Taz. He could break a bowling ball. Anyhow. I enjoy reading the posts and am learning a lot from everyone.
