Trunk lock problem. First the key wouldnt turn then door wouldnt stay shut so had them replace the lockset entirely. So far so good on new lockset. Other than that nothing really to report.

To post SNAKE VENOM 2021 by New Orleans Kevin: We have a 2021 TriGlide Ultra as well. Where did you find the Hammock Seat? Agree, headlight is no good, will change. We purchased latter Apr 2021 and just turned 6.5K. Love the 10” Freedom Shield, too.

We've been very happy with ours, about 1200 miles so far without a hitch.
dawingrider,
There are some little things called ‘floor board spacers’ out there that I have put on both of my Harleys. They move the floor boards out away from the engine and pipes, which allows a little more air flow between your legs and the exhaust. When my Tri comes in, they will be in the shop waiting to be installed on it.
Hope they will help you at least take some of the heat off.
Bought mine March 3rd . Despite daily rains and now extreme heat warnings , I've managed to put 3295.0 miles on mine.
So far I've changed all lights to Custom Dynamics LED and added the vent trim with light on the fairing, the trim with lights across the top the fairing and the additional lights that go on the bottom of the rear fenders . All rear lights run through magic strobes flasher for extra attention. I've also changed out to a hammock seat, added the legends lift kit, changed to a Freedom Touring 12 in windshield, added the v twin goodies rider floorboard extensions, the DK 1.5 tank lift kit, the DK cooling wings, the HD rear bumper with the Kuryakyn bracket covers and Khrome Werks mufflers with performer baffles.
Most of what I did was for my comfort , but the headlight/passing lamps change was, for me , a requirement since the stock headlight was terrible. With the LED I can see five times further. The trike suspension is terrible, to me, thus the Hammock seat and lift kit, new shocks are next in order as LA and New Orleans streets are terrible and the SO rode on the back the other night for the first time and complained about how terrible the ride is. I already knew new shocks were coming but now they are a priority. The floorboard extensions were a great addition as my feet are now using the whole floor board not just half of it.
Engine heat and the primary drip are also an issue that will be addressed soon.
I'm also planning an upgraded sound system,; at 80-90 mph the stock system gets drowned out by road noise. Also i love the painted inner fairings and will have that done along with a more comfortable set of handlebars as soon as possible.
Once out of warranty a camchest kit with torque cam and tune will be added. but that time isn't here yet.
Overall I'm loving the trike and can't wait to actually do a long haul on her.
Kevin,
If you're going to go for the painted inner fairing (I had mine done last year) check out the vender called Fairing Xchange( fairing xchange.com) from Port Orange, Florida. You set up an appointment date at the rally location of your choice and send $100 advanced deposit to guarantee your color will be on the truck, and just show up and they will exchange your stock fairing for a new painted one for around $500. They did my trike in less than 45 minute for the swap-out and I couldn't be happier. Highly recommended.
Good Luck with the new ride--gunfighter
Picked up my 2021 Gaultlet Grey and Vivid Black on September 17 from Destination Daytona and road it home to Charleston, SC 2 days later. Have already swapped out the seat, tail lights. Added ciro3d lights to the back, and put on fender bras. This week it's getting the bars swapped out to Khrome Werks 2+2's.
