I had a 98 GL1500 didn't like the lite front end on it

Wife and I roade a new 18 Tri Glide last summer and I loved it

for the way I ride it was all the trike I wanted and stable as heck

but 40K OTD was a bit more than i wanted to spend at that moment...

FF to today, I had looked at several tri glides 2013 down to get a cheaper buy in, then this 2014 became available, real close to the 18 model except the M8 motor, I own a police 103 now and can easily live with it. So I'm a Tri Glide person now. I really believe this is the trike for me. How's she look, guys? (bra coming off back fenders)

Looking pretty good there, love the color, hope when you take off the fender bras they are not scratched up, some dealers recommend putting down a film before installing the bras, hope that works out for you, keep the bras, you may need them later on after rock chips and everything else beats up the fender even if it has film on it.

All for now Trampas
 
Nice one Tom. Your going to love it. Congrats.

PS: What the hell is that?......Green Grass. I live it Iowa, so we have brown grass at best.

Bike is in Miami, I'm in S Central FL

Thx for tip on the fender covers, will update when I put a few miles on it

Question: Do these come with oil coolers, or do I need to get one if not??
 
recommend some kind of fender protection They chip up pretty fast. I used the fender film when I had the TRI and worked well.
 
Very nice, always good to see another 2 to 3 convert.

Be safe and ride.................................
 
Smart move on the fender bra. I've had 2) 2014 TG's and love them. I bought a roll of 3M plastic film ($59 for a 2' x 6' piece) and made my own templates. There are different thicknesses. I had 35K miles on my first TG with only a couple of medium size nicks in the film. When they get too bad, just peel off and reapply. Plus you get to see that beautiful paint job not some wrinkly faux leather.....JMHO
 
I have a 14 the more I ride it the more I like it..Be Safe:qpnmt:
