What Shocks are you using on your Triglide
Ok I think you guys are probably right! I just pulled my 14" Super Shox off my Road Glide and shipped them back to have them reworked to fit my 019 Tri glide. We just drove Hwy 20 in WA to Winthrop one of the roughest roads I've been on in my almost 70 yrs! (highest gas taxes next to CA I might...- Arctic Fox

What Shocks are you using on your Triglide
I put 14" Super Shox a couple of years ago on my 013 Road Glide and noticed a difference. There a good product, but decided not to change out my stock shocks on my 019 Tri glide. We feel there ok when riding two up, the crappy bridge abutment certainly are a pile driver though! I just don't...- Arctic Fox

New Rear Rotors Warped on my TG??
Latest update on my brakes. Just recently got back from our trip, the brakes never improved. The rear rotors were still badly warped! The shop called me (on my trip) and said they would have new OEM Harley rotors and pads waiting for me. Well, they just installed the parts the other day, and...- Arctic Fox

New Rear Rotors Warped on my TG??
Well thanks all you guys! And thanks for the info and specs on the rotors 14TG I may get another chance to ride a bit today, only rode about 3 miles yesterday it did seem better. I may look for someone who can still turn rotors to just true them up abit. I've never pulled rear calipers (on a...- Arctic Fox

Apparently the mechanic cleaned up the caliper pins and lubed them so the pads could move better?? I did tell the service manager that he should have done this anyway with a standard brake job! He agreed.- Arctic Fox

New Rear Rotors Warped on my TG??
Got the trike back, took it for a quick spin seemed a lot better. Still noticeable but better. Probably the 3-4 thousandth run out. I'll take it on the trip and see how it does. So good to have it back! I love this thing, I want to get on it all the time! My lonely 013 Road glide sits in the...- Arctic Fox

New Rear Rotors Warped on my TG??
The shop found one of the pads cocked a little and only making partial contact, they cleaned up the pins and lubes them to allow the pads to move freer. This should have already been done on a standard brake job IMO!! But I didn't tell them that, anyway there bringing it back today. They say...- Arctic Fox

New Rear Rotors Warped on my TG??
Well here's the latest just talked to the shop and they say the HD shop manual states that the specs allow up to 8 thousandth run out! That's hard to believe that 8 thousandth on these small rotors! Anyway there working on it, maybe the calipers are messed up somehow. More info coming tomorrow I...- Arctic Fox

New Rear Rotors Warped on my TG??
Thanks Man for your effort! Like I said the independent shop (only one around, other than the HD dealership 75 miles away) ordered these rotors (whose ever they are) from Drag Specialties. I guess I'm screwed being there's no warranty from DS only the mfg's. I don't imagine this shop is about to...- Arctic Fox

New Rear Rotors Warped on my TG??
I don't know what brand they are, only thing I know is the independent shop got them from Drag Specialties. If these are out 3-4 thousandth I can't help but think that any replacements would be any better! I think I'm going to have deal with this issue while on my trip, maybe they will order...- Arctic Fox

New Rear Rotors Warped on my TG??
Lots of good ideas, no my independent shop supplied the rotors. I just bought the trike with 76k on it previous owner said it needed rear brakes and gave me the set of HD pads. At this mileage I wanted to start out with fresh bearings all the way around. I was a little concerned that maybe they...- Arctic Fox

Checked the run out this morning, it's about 3-4 thousands out. To much in my opinion for such small rotors. Hate to have new rotors resurfaced, wearing them out and haven't got any miles on them yet! But I guess no other choice at this point.- Arctic Fox
