I have been practicing my riding on the airport roads, but today I went on the real road with the Tri Glide. This is one awesome riding machine. The steering EASY! I did 63 country miles on one lane roads with lots of curves. Yea, I slowed way down, but I was at posted limit most of the time. I just wasn't sure how it would handle plus traffic coming opposite gave me reason enough to slow down. Most of the time they were on my side of the road!!!
I did U turn on the road, took a gravel road and went to a pub that had a gravel parking lot. The only thing that bothered me was my clutch hand. The clutch is tight and I have very tiny (extra small gloves) hands. I will have to just get used to it. I hit the wrong gear on occasion but I have only ridden automatics before my msf course two months ago, and haven't ridden since then until now. I am so ready for some road trips. I thank Harley Davidson for such an great machine that is set up to be a trike. You can just tell that a lot of forethought went into the production of these trikes. The rake and the steering damper....I went over some really rough crowned roads, and never felt a lot of wobble. Do you think I am happy??????
