Hi all. I am just getting back to riding after 40 some odd years..Bought a 2011 Tri Glide. I have three sons all Harley riders, and all great “wrenches” on the bikes.

Since buying it, I’ve added a few things, the best, IMHO was the Motor Trike reverse.

I’ve been reading everything I can on this forum and hope to be a regular.

As a follow up, here’s what we’ve done so farInspect everything, Change all fluids and filters,

New rear rotors
New plugs, new HD plug wires.

New brake pads all around,

Adjust and repair parking brake


Add Motor Trike mechanical reverse

Add XM module.


New Goodyear Assurance Comfortreds rears

Ordered DK lift kit only to find it already had it done, who knew?

Polish and buff all painted surfaces.

Polish all chrome as it’s been two years just sitting.


All work done by my son who is a 20 year Army veteran, Helicopter mechanic, 25yr plus riding and working on Harley’s, built his own chopper from frame up. Needless to say, I trust him and his knowledge over any service center tech.

Less you think he’s just a good wrench, he’s finishing up his 2nd bachelors degree and graduating cum laude.

I might be a little biased......

Thank your Son for this service to our great country!
