1/8" seems to be common as I mentioned early on in this thread every Harley trike I have seen is pretty much give or take this way.

Our 2017 Tri Glide on level ground, rear fender left side tires aired the same about 1/8" lower. The rear bumper side to side measured to the ground on level ground is so close to being the same maybe 2mm diffrence. Same with mufflers side to side about 2mm diffrence measured to the ground. Our 2015 Freewheeler was pretty much the same way but was a little more than 1/8".

Measure your car all four fenders to the ground, you will be surprised. Funny thing is you will find your trike is just fine.

Ride Safe All,

Measurement talk'''

You know all this measurement talk got me thinking so i went out to my garage and got my trusty tape measurer and i measured my.. [Not that dirty minds].. legs, And what to my surprise ' My left leg is a 1/4 inch longer than my right leg, Or is my is my right leg a 1/4 inch shorter than my left leg...Anyway whatever ' That might explain why i keep walking in circles while shopping with my Wife......:xzqxz:

I spoke with HD technical engineering today about the issue. Turns out the person that installs the rear bodys has one leg shorter that the other.
They insured me that he would be removed from the line and placed in management early December.

I heard back yesterday and HD may have to fire him; he was found in the board room walking in circles!

[FONT=&quot]Retired...[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]If you look at it, often "re" is used to indicate an action is being done again...like repeat, retread, rewire, etc. [/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]Then, we have "tired" immediately following "re". Does this mean one is tired again? One was probably tired while employed, but after employment ends one is supposed to become rested (something one would look forward to) but this word implies we are tired again...so if one is tired after being employed all their life then becoming retired is not something to look forward to... ???

Gee, and I thought it was like working for yourself only dealing with neighbors and family, not John Q Public :Shrug: I seem to go to the Drs more than the grocery mkt !

Is my rear level???

My '15 T-G was the 1st trike. Steered like a Mack truck. The lift kit really helped. BUT, once installed I thought I'd done something wrong as the bottom edges of the rear fenders were 3/8's inch off. And looked it! After jacking, measuring, looking, more jacking...etc I found that one fender was ROTATED 3/8's inch forward from the other. I should have done my measuring from the bottom of the rear frame! Took fender off, rat-tailed the holes a bit to elongate & now both fenders measure the same!!!!....JE
