Local dealer custom Freewheeler
Stopped in on the way home from work and they had this 2017 custom Freewheeler on the floor. There was no price or build sheet but from the look of some of the body work it's not going to be cheap. Not too sure I would like not having fenders but it does look cool
Without fenders or some kind of Quasi type fenders it wont be legal for the street....

2019 Tri-Glide.......

Current ride : 2021 FREEWHEELER M8, oldest ride 1960 FL
Hard to tell if this particular Free is in it's final showroom presentation condition, from a random shot in the "shop"?
With some custom rear fenders, it could look a lot different?...I kinda like the stripped down look but actually having to ride it in a driving rainstorm that simply cannot be avoided, it just might need some more "work"...
No, it doesn't look good to me.
Now this one does.

Free
I like it, agree it needs some type of fenders.....then RIDE....
Sure hope the buyer doesn't plan on picking up any companions, unless he/she wants to park the passenger's feet in their lap.
2024 Tri Glide! Only modifications so far - transferred Rider backrest from old 2015 Freewheeler, just added highway pegs!
On our last Yellowstone run we ran into a lot of rain. My BIL, who has to always go last because of his loud pipes, complained about the 'rooster tails' my FW was throwing up. He claimed water was flying 25-30' in the air.
That FW looks nice without the fenders but I'm afraid that would be a fair weather trike only. You could drown...
Took a second look and changed my mind. Tires are too big around. Don't line up well with the body. Maybe a tire with a narrow sidewall?
I was thinking it could be one of those dealership projects by the 'Chrome Consultants' competition. I had seen some of the so called customs they dream up and they weren't that great. They seem to lack imagination. Every once in a while I play around with the program at the Harley Davidson site to see how I can customize each bike with what the site offers to use and come up with a fancy high dollar bike or trike. It gives me something to do and test my creativity.

I went over to the Harley Davidson site and entertained myself and came up with these. What do you think? Which one would you like?

The Tri hits me best.
What, no Road Glide?

I love my Freewheeler, however if I had 40K burning a hole in my pocket I'd be leaning towards the Tri.
I had to buy used or wouldn't have one at all.

Here they are, three different versions. They don't give you much to use at the site.

I've played enough on the site and now it is your turn. Go here and have fun, screen shot your bike and let's see what you come up with. There are no wrong answers, just be creative with what they offer you.

Wheels
Who makes the custom wheels?
The rear are the Cragar Modern Muscle 614 Series Chrome Wheels, the front I'm guessing is a HD
The front rim is from RC Components, it is new for 2017.
