Goldwing trike vs harley triglide

[pcombe]

When I started looking for a trike, I knew I didn't want a Harley. I do like the look of the Harley. Still looks like a motorcycle. But it is air cooled, not for me. I knew I didn't like the look of a wing. Too much Tupperware. Not into Star Wars. I found out both were too expensive for me. Almost bought a Wing until I sat on it. Couldn't get away from that fast enough.

I started looking at the alternatives. I settled on a Honda 1300 VTX R Champion. No reverse. No problem it is light weight. I live in Florida. Flat. Don't need reverse. It still looks like a motorcycle. Drives and feels like a motorcycle. Feet out in front just like my cruiser.

I can put my feet in three different places. If I wanted it to feel like a car I would have bought a car. I like to push/pull fell of the steering. I do like the quiet of the Wing but my VTX has a nice muffler on it and has a good sound to it. I have vista cruise, Stereo, floor boards, heal toe, highway bars, chaps, windshield, lowers. Mustang seats, adjustable backrest driver AND passenger. I can add lots of other goodies. Believe it or not, there are other trikes out there besides Wings and Harley's. I'll bet the Valkyrie make a killer trike.

"I'll bet the Valkyrie make a killer trike."

I bet your right Cavie but I just cant get past the ugly long enough to consider it?

I know they run like a striped ass ape and all that but I would have to cover up that mill.:AGGHH:

(go ahead and chastise me now but it just wont make much difference to my tastes?)

BMW makes a better looking engine.

Sooner have a wing or something like your ride?

We have a Honda vtx custom, 2 wheels, a goldwing with roadsmith kit, freewheeler, super glide HD, 2 wheels, wide glide, 2 wheels.
Local we love the 2 wheels or the free but for trips it will be the Goldwing Roadsmith every time.
I will always have at least one Harley, I was mostly raised on em, in the blood you might say.
For pure power it's my one of the 2 wheel Harley's.
The free is okay power wise but not as strong as the GW
