GL1500 worth triking or sell and buy one already done?
I have a beautiful 89 GL1500 with only 9000 miles on it i'm considering triking Question is would it be cost prohibitive to do so? I want a REAL kit like a champion etc not the training wheel stuff Or, should I sell the 1500 and buy a nice older GL trike already done? Thoughts?- tbird71

500 Mile Report on New 2019 Tri Glide
Well, I'm at the 500 mi mark now, got it pretty well broke in, here's my impression so far (vs my 2014 103 model) This is my opinion only on my two bikes Harley takes a different route than Honda. For all the major changes, this new trike, save for the air cleaner, looks exactly like a 2014...- tbird71

Tri Glide vs Conversion vs GL
This has probably been discussed here before, just wondering why TG owners prefer the factory trike vs a conversion vs a goldwing.

Buying a new 2019 Tri-Glide.
Gary, I got this 2014 for 15800+tax because of the higher (34K) miles on it but I know I wouldn't have got a better deal on a Rushmore TG heck you can't even buy an 09 for that price. We'll enjoy it for a few years then see where we're at but I'm pretty sure I'll at least get my money back on a...- tbird71
