    Mega Crank Battery from Battery Mart

    I am on my 2nd Mega Crank battery in my 2015 Freewheeler. The first one lasted + or - 4 years. I have had the second one for about 8 months. I have seen them recommended on this forum and I am happy with them. How ever, I recommended the battery to a neighbor for his 2018 Street Glide and of...

    Reverse Motor

    The reverse motor on my Freewheeler has not worked for awhile and it is time to fix it. Has anyone rebuilt their reverse motor? Is there a repair kit available? If so where did you get it? I do not want to go to a mechanical reverse. Thanks, Sunman

    Parkinsons Disease

    Well, the last six weeks have not been good for me medically. Was diagnosed with Atrial flutter, saw the cardiologist and that seems to be under control. Friday I saw a neurologist for arm and leg weakness and tremors and was diagnosed with Parkinson's disease and just started medication for...

    Rear Brake Pads

    My 2015 FW has 35,500 miles and original rear brake pads. Changed the front pads at about 27,000 miles and they still had lots of pad left. In checking per the trike service manual instructions the rear brake pad wear indicator tabs are still sticking out past the caliper surface indicating...

    Power Vision Auto Tune

    I got a new tune from Dynjet for the set-up on my engine. I downloaded the tune to the PV and flashed it to the bike's ECM. Now I am doing the auto tune runs and want to be sure I am doing it right (I have watched the Dynojet video). I did an auto tune run with the new tune and saved it to a new...

    Handlebar change out

    OK, after all this time I decided to change out my bars for more pullback due to shoulder and neck pain. Got the OEM bars off and on the work bench. Cannot get the wire pins to release out of the plugs so I can pull the wiring harnesses out with the switch packs. Tried a safety pin, straight pin...

    What Did You Do To Your Freewheeler Today?

    I found a couple of photos of the Tour Rest passenger backrest that I had for my FW. I believe Saddlemans and maybe Cobra make a similar one. As I said my wife loved it and felt more secure. Sunman

    Rear Tires

    Just checked tread depth on my OEM rear tires at 31K miles. Checking all around the tire I have 5/32", a couple of spots maybe just slightly under. I know that on car tires a lot of tire shops recommend replacing at 4/32" mainly due to hydroplaning danger. Seems with the light weight of the...

    Had new front tire installed

    I had a new front tire that I ordered from Dennis Kirk in the garage and with the trip to Kerrville coming up I decided to go ahead and have it mounted. I took the front wheel off and took it and the new tire to a local shop I have used for several years to mount tires. They informed me that...

    Freewheeler and Triglide Rear Tires

    What mileage are you FW and Tri riders getting out of the OEM rear tires? I have just over 30,000 miles on my rear tires and they look like they can easily go another 5,000 miles. Just curious as to what mileage others have gotten out of their OEM tires. Thanks, Sunman

    Batwing Fairing and lowers

    I am considering adding a Memphis Shades batwing fairing and Hogworkz lowers to my 2015 Freewheeler. I know some people have these and would like some feedback as to any pros or cons, quality issues on either one, any issues with engine heating from the lowers or handling effects from the...

    Original Tread Depth on Marathon ME*** Front Tire

    I am currently running a Marathon ME888 Ultra Front Tire (130/60-B19) on my 2015 Freewheeler. At 4,950 miles on it I have between 4/32" and 5/32" tread depth left. I have looked on Metzler's website but can not find any info on what the new tread depth was. I am thinking it was 6/32" but I don't...

    Front Tire for Freewheeler

    Anyone else try the Metzler ME 888 front tire on their FLRT? They are supposed to be a "high mileage" tire. I have one on now and it seems to be wearing pretty well so I just may order another one when the time comes. I used to run a rear tire in reverse on the front of my Goldwing trike but...

    Replacement Battery

    I am going to replace the 4 year old battery in my 2015 Freewheeler before an upcoming trip just as a precaution. Whenever the bike is parked in the garage it is on a battery tender but it has always been my practice to replace a battery when it is 4 years old. I did a search and found a couple...

    Bad news. Need Prayers

    My beautiful wife Pat of 50 years has been diagnosed with pancreatic cancer just 4 weeks ago. Yesterday the doctor said the CT scans now show 3 spots on her liver that were not in the first scans. I started out optimistic but it is hard to stay that way with this news. She need lots of prayers...

    JES Wind Deflector Cracked

    Finally got a picture to upload. Not the best but the crack is visible. Sent an e-mail to JES but it failed, said e-mail address was now inactive. Called JES phone number and got voicemail. Will try again later. Sunman

    JES Wind Deflector Cracked

    Yesterday I was cleaning the Freewheeler and I noted that one of the JES fork mounted wind deflectors appeared to be loose. On inspection the mounting bolts weren't loose, it was cracked almost all the way through where the cutout is for the turn signal. It appears to be a cyclical stress...

    Harley Lifetime Warranty?

    My next door neighbor just bought a new 2018 Tri Glide from a dealer in Arizona while he was out there. He said he got a lifetime warranty on it and that it was a special promotion and collaboration between this dealer and Harley Davidson. He claims that this warranty is backed by HD and is good...
