First Ride on a Tri-Glide

[camper99]

Today was the first time that I rode a trike. I test rode an 2018 Tri-Glide. I was not sure what to expect after reading on facebook and other places about how they ride and how hard it is to turn these big bikes. I liked it very much. Smooth ride. The first few turns I made was very different and I was not sure if it was going to turn. After a few miles it all got much better but will need more time ridding to get used to it. I may need to wait until spring because of financing. I do see why everyone likes them.

Welcome aboard Jerry. Just wait until you have several hundred miles on one. You will really wonder what took you so long to switch.

It is all good I have earned every ache and pain in these old bones. Would not want to do it over though most people now have lost all concept of right and wrong. There seems no need for respect and honesty kinda sad. Ride safe Fred

Glad you liked it, but be careful, it's very addictive.

Hey Jerry, Welcome from Wisconsin.

Welcome aboard.

It took me about 6 months before I decided to tackle the Dragon. What a rush. Been doing it every year coming back from Rolling Thunder. Unfortunately I didn't make it this year. I was riding a little faster then my guardian angel just south of Then Dragon in NC and totaled the TG. In therapy now waiting to get on my new TG in November.....hopefully.

Remember the 2 cardinal rules 1. keep your feet up and 2. park farther away from the gas pumps.

And don't pay any attention to the 2 wheelers - they don't know how much fun a trike really is.

Welcome from eastern NC. Wife and I made the same 'mistake' test riding a triglide. It followed us home shortly after. It does take some getting used to but the more you ride, the more comfortable you get. By the way, mama loves that big ole comfortable seat. Never could get the two wheel as comfortable as the triglide. Just take it easy at first. You will love the trike, Richard.
