    First 300 mile ride and impressions of my 2019 Tri Glide Ultra

    400 Plus Miles After Shoulder Surgery I am happy to report that after 9.5 weeks of rehab of a right rotator cuff surgery, with diligent physical therapy I began riding my 2019 Tri Glide after 7.5 weeks of rehab. I have only put a little over 400 miles on the trike since getting back into the...

    2019 Tri Glide Jack

    I am a little confused about what is being asked? I have a J&S that I used on my 2017 TGU that goes in from the left. When I traded the 2017 for a 2019 TGU, I found that the J&S jack works fine. It does not seem quite as stable as when it was under the 2017 but it is good enough for me to do...

    2017 trike/J&S Jack

    Mike, Congrats on the new ride. I am kind of partial to the color of the trike you got. Not sure why? Oh, I know, it is because I bought that same color! Bwahahahahahaha

    First ride after 7.5 weeks out of shoulder surgery Hooray, I beat my artificial deadline by a couple of days and rode my 2019 Tri Glide Ultra from Vero Beach, Florida down to the Harley dealer in Stuart, Florida. Started out just after noon with relatively clear skies and temps of 84 degrees...

    John Maxwell Discusses the new 2019 Tri-Glide

    I always enjoy Maxwell's take on the bike/trikes he wrenches on. Like other 2019 owners, I knew and reported that the clutch was better but did not know the source of the improvement until the video. I am past the fourth week following my right shoulder surgery and will be initiating active as...

    First 300 mile ride and impressions of my 2019 Tri Glide Ultra

    1000 Mile Service is Complete Well, I have been riding the wheels off of the 2019 and performed the 1000 mile service over the past two days. I am pretty slow and methodical and it takes me about x3 longer than any Harley service tech to do a 1k service but I know that everything is done...

    2019 HD Tri Glide Ultra - Meh

    I finally got to see a 2019 HD Tri Glide Ultra at a relatively local dealer. I was wondering about numerous new little things on the 2019 and if it might be worth a jump from my 2017 M8 TGU with 7500 miles. The answer in a nutshell is "Meh". For someone upgrading to the newer M8 engine, it would...

    Took the Advanced Rider MSF course today

    With 400k plus seat miles on bikes/trikes, I realized that at age 68, it might not be a bad idea to take an advanced rider MSF course. Firstly, it provided a formalized opportunity to see how my skillsets have "aged", to pick up some safety tips and also get a 10% discount on my insured trikes...

    Happy to Own a M8 Tri Glide and a Cam-Am F3S Spyder

    The past couple of days in North Florida we have experienced warmer afternoons that have been really terrific for riding. The day before yesterday, I rode down to the coast on my M8 Harley Tri Glide Ultra and just enjoyed the heck out of it. A number of people were oogling the trike and...

    First two trike rides after a total left hip replacement

    Modern medicine and new trikes are frankly amazing. 4 1/2 weeks ago, I had a total left hip replacement with the surgeon using the newer anterior (front of the leg) approach to get to the hip joint and replace with titanium rod/ceramic coated femoral head and polymer cup (acetabulum). On Friday...

    Can't stand the thought of owning an "orphan"

    The next 6-7 days are a real nail biter in terms of finding out what the MOCO has been plotting for the 2018 Tri Glides. Having owned a 2016 and migrated to the M8 2017, I am hoping that I did not buy an "orphan" in terms of the frame, suspension, etc. I know that the MOCO has to keep moving...

    Continued Love Affair with the 2017 Tri Glide and 2015 Can-Am F3S Spyder

    Continued Love Affair with the 2017 Tri Glide and 2015 Can-Am F3S Spyder Wow, am I ever hooked on trikes! Today, I did about 80 miles of a 190 mile ride on my Can-Am F3S Spyder on twisty North Florida/South Georgia roads. Then I decided that I had not had enough riding so continued on for the...

    J&S Trike Lift "Wowser"

    All I can start off saying is what Snagglepuss said "Heavens to Murgatroyd"! (You old duffers will understand the time that we were hearing these Hanna/Barbara utterings). I assembled my J&S Trike Lift yesterday and this morning, carefully, after reading the lifting instructions, proceeded to...

    A Couple of days with a Milwaukee-Eight Freewheeler...

    Brian, If you think me or Kevin is going to make your decision for you involving almost $10K, you are dreaming:xzqxz: The M8 makes its power at a lower and somewhat wider rpm band and therefore to me and the seat of my pants, makes power where it is generally most useful and more fun. Not being...

    Finished Installation of Love Jugs Cool-Master Fans Well, today I completed the installation of Love Jug's new Cool-Master fans in the stainless steel housings. It took me several hours to carefully study the instructions, successfully remove the HD vibration damper and replace it with the...

    Pro Action Rear Shock Intall Today With Lots Of Pic's On 2017 Tri Glide

    Bill, I just jacked up my 2017 TGU and did note that the weld on the Z-pipe is just barely touching the front edge of the swingarm in the unsupported position with the wheels entirely off the ground. I see where your concern is. However, a scenario where the trike would hit a pothole and...
