Hi All YaAll;
I have not yet purchased a trike but have pretty much decided on a Free Wheeler . Several friends have Honda's and I admit they are tempting , but like the big glide model Harley's they just have too much stuff on them that I don't need or want.
My last HD was a 2004 Road King classic , I sold it when it started need in cam chain stuff and I had other bikes so it went down the road.
My questions are motor related : eg which engines I might give a pass to as they have inherent internal issues .
I am budget limited ( self imposed) to a max price for the machine of $15k
I have been looking at the usual suspects in the usual classifieds and see some with reasonable mileage in my price range , but admit to being out of the loop of knowledge engine wise.
I am interested in finding a purely stock motor , not interested in any stage 1 , 2 or what ever "Improvements"
Is a 103 better than a ???
Or is there a very reliable other model I should be looking for.
Thanks for any input , it is appreciated.
PS: I don't want to go fast , I just want to roll along as comfortable and reliable as I can.
