17 Inch Black Encore Wheels

[cycle7447]

Hello everyone:

I am waiting for my trike to be assembled - have a 2021 Ultra - Blacked Out.

It appears that CSC is currently out of the 17" Encore Black Wheels (probably about 3 months out). Was wondering if any installers had a set of these laying around?

Thanks

All the factory has to do is take a set of silver finish and have them powder coated in black. Problem solved for both the installer and customer.

Hello Don. Are the Encore wheels different on the Harley than the Honda? My Honda GL 1800 kit was suppose to ship next month but we got notice of 4 to 6 week delay. Also no chrome wheels available. Black wheels were suppose to be available about now.

Trike Lady - you might think that such would be the case - however, I don't think CSC is willing to do that.

Since it is riding season, once my bike is ready, I want to ride for the season. If CSC does the swap. all is well. If they don't, I might consider taking mine to a local power coater.

Slather - the Encore wheels are the same for the Honda and the Harley. If you look at the options on the CSC site, it says that their wheels fit all of their kits.

Interesting you are saying that your kit is going to be delayed - and, no chrome wheels. My kit came with the chrome that I didn't order. What I was told is that they have to ship the kit with wheels (make sense). So, just easier to get some of the kits in the hands of the installer and make a swap. For me, I am happy to have a trike to ride. Maybe they think a lot of folks will fall in love with the wheels they have.

Anther answer I was given was - well they learned that folks that got these wheels didn't like them as much - so, we provided the one most liked. Hard to imagine they said that.

How did you hear about the black Encore being available? I was on the phone with CSC when my installer asked - and they said probably about 3 month delayed.

It's a supply chain issue. Where ever the wheels are made is having a problem. The ones they provided don't look bad, the spoke pattern matches the front in style.

Indeed a supply chain issue. For me, I am just ready to get on the road with the trike.

Over the winter, I can make the changes I want - or, may just decide to roll like it is.
