Great! I'm assuming the Rinehart's are made for the Freewheeler & don't stick too far out from the trunk?
I just bought one. Love it.
Congrats & welcome. You should post on the "new members forum" & introduce yourself & post some pics.
There are 4 FW owners(forum members) in our area that I know of, I'm in Overland. Who did you get it from?
Thanks. I live just north of Florissant. I got it at Green Mountain HD.
I think the 2019 Freewheeler is a lot better than my 2015. I took two test rides during Daytona Bike Week and really liked both rides. The front suspension is much better. The rear matches mine with the DK coil shocks I added. I was thinking that losing some front braking would be bad, but the brakes are fully linked. Several times I just used the front brake lever at much higher than posted speed limit and I had the back tires howling while coming to a short stop. I turned the traction control off and on and liked it off. Of course, I like to make the tires squeal on hard turns. The engine is way smoother than my 2015 and it had lots of low end grunt. Did notice a little heat, but not like mine when I first bought it. My bike has aftermarket headers without the cat and Lov Jugs. If I had a choice between a 2019 and older one I would pick the 2019 as it a lot better in many areas to justify the added cost.
Now 5k miles in and LOVE it still, am going for a Stage 2 torque cam in the next couple weeks. The T/C has kicked in a couple times and it is a little odd but not bad. Still loving the 3.5 in slipons.... I have only dragged them once, the 4 inch on my 15 would drag all the time.
I picked up mine about six weeks ago and love it. The linked brakes are great as I. An amputee so it really helps me.
Im looking for mufflers at the moment. Just need to make sure I get the right ones. This is my first ever bike/trike so it’s a steep learning curve for me but I’m so glad I made the plunge and got one.

Got ours two weeks ago here in Mobile Alabama, had a set of Wild Pigs sitting around and now they are on the 2019 Freewheeler sounding great. The better half likes this one better because she can see the front tire with out a fairing blocking her view. I like it because of the 114 M8 can move......the dealer installed a back rest and windscreen....all is good, I hope y'all enjoy like we are..
Hi Greg
welcome to the freewheeler club, of which I’m very new too it myself. The 114 M8 does have some nice torque. I’ve just been for a ride without the windshield and it makes a huge difference.
Time to get some miles done now.
Enjoy the new Trike. Tell the wife stop looking at the front tire. Lol.
