Can't ride yet
I have been out on the back of a Harley for almost 30 years recently became single and refuse to stop riding, unfortunately I am clumsy and a two wheeler just is not good for me so I'm getting a Harley with the trike conversion kit put on it does anyone have any advice
Hello and welcome to the forum.
Find a good installer. Test ride as many trikes as you can to find the one you like best, when you do you'll have a great trike that you'll enjoy for many years.

Welcome Bonnie and kudos to you for exploring the world of three wheels to fill the void. Road Smith driver here, but lots of options out there, no rush to judgment. If you were used to the Harley ride, and you liked the sound, drop by the dealer for a test ride on the Tri Glide or the Freewheeler, or both, but don't stop there, that's just somewhere to start. Not my cup of tea, but might be yours.

Bonnie, welcome from San Antonio, Texas. I suggest you get your license to ride a trike first, then test ride as many as you can before you buy.

Welcome to the Gang from Western Colorado.
+1 on finding a good installer. Maybe look into getting a used Tri Glide or Freewheeler. Just a thought.
welcome aboard Bonnie. Take it slow and get comfortable. Do a lot of reading on here from others that have taken the same path as you.
