New Harley Tri Glide

[chiefbuc]

I just traded my 2010 TG in for a 2014 TG. I couldn't help myself to buy it. I like the water cooled exhaust tips, and the sand and pearl color. I hope the heat problem is fixed otherwise will be buying new exhaust from VH removing the Cat. That is what I did with the 2010 and it was the best thing I did.

It is being delivered today.

The 2010 model after replacing the exhaust and removing that darn cat was the best thing I ever done to that trike. It was expensive for the parts, dyno, and all but well worth it. I am sure it will have to be done to the 2014 but maybe I will get lucky.

Congrats on your new ride. I am going to wait until the 2015's come out and then see what they did to improve them. if they do not make any big changes i will just keep riding my 2007 as i am happy with it and will save my money.

Congrats on your new Trike. I bought mine back in Sept. I live in Ohio but trailered the trike to Florida in late October for four days. Did not notice any heat problems but I am changing out the pipes this spring. I already have purchased the VH Dresser Duals and 4" Reinharts along with a Harley stage one air cleaner and HD Super Tuner. When the weather breaks off to the dealer it goes to have this stuff put on and tuned. I can't wait to hear the exhaust. I traded in an 2012 Road Glide ultra and had the reinharts on it and it sounded great. I noticed with the stock exhaust on the trike with the 10:1 compression pistions that it sounds deeper so I can only imagine how it will sound with the new exhaust.

I drove the new triglide with the outside temps at 60 degrees and the heat wasn't real bad. I am sure I will have to change over to a new exhaust removing the cat.

I also noticed that they did away with oil pressure gauge.

I have idiot lights for both oil press and water temp. Harley Davidson put a big display for the radio and GPS. What happened to common sense. I am old school and prefer to have the gauges versus the radio. I guess it's a new generation of engineers. I am already looking into handle-bar miniature gauges for oil pressure and water temp.

Otherwise the trike drives good and handles good. My wife likes it and I guess that is what's important.

later...........Mark

The what??????????? I'm aware of the water cooled heads but, exhaust tips

You are right. Thank you. I am not used to pushing buttons to see oil pressure. Their is oil pressure, air temp that is it on the display. No water temp.

I guess I should read owners manual before running my mouth. Tomorrow the wife and I are going to take our first ride together. I'm sure it will be fun. Thanks for the info. ........Mark
