    Fuel Gauge vs Odometer Fuel Remaining View

    Trying to get a jump on prepping the TG for this riding season... First, it's a 2013 TG with 51K miles showing. Always on a Battery Tender when not being ridden and Stabil in the tank for the winter. Battery is a DEKA, six years old, so that was the first to get replaced. Seat was the...

    HJC-IS Cruiser Helmet Audio Help

    My TG is a '13 and was fitted in its earlier years with a corded JM Corporation (Tucson AZ) audio set-up for the rider and passenger H-D half-helmets. Moved this set-up from shorty helmets to shorty helmets over the years and were pleased with JM's product. I've just replaced another set of...

    Harley-Davidson will go All Electric, says CEO

    https://jalopnik.com/harley-davidson-will-go-all-electric-says-ceo-1850003694 "It’s possible Harley-Davidson is fully aware that its core customers have little interest in buying EVs. If that’s the case, then the move to compartmentalize, or “quarantine,” its EV efforts seems downright shrewd...

    Powder Coated Wheels

    Powder Coating I had mine powder coated a year and a half ago. Took the "naked" wheels to the shop and in a day and a half got them back looking just like an OEM on a new car showroom. Three wheels: $270.00. I've been looking for a pinstripe artist to accent them for me but most of them are too...

    Air Filter Dilema

    After getting the DK Pro Action Shocks and Bearing Retainer Plates installed last week, it rained and the temperature tanked. So far no test rides! With this COVID-19 crisis, it provides time to give the TG a very thorough going over. Went to remove the K & N air filter to soak it and it won't...

    What did you do to Your Tri-Glide Today?

    New DK additions The DK Pro-Action Shocks and Bearing Retainer plates came last Monday (2nd) and Life got in the way until Thursday when I finally got started on R & R (remove and replace; not rest and recreation!). Up on the jack stands, off with the old shocks and on with the new. The OEM air...

    NGK Iridium spark plugs

    Spark Plug Concerns I have been running NGK Iridium Plugs in my '13 TG for the last 10K miles with satisfactory results. Performance meets my needs and fuel mileage is running between 36 - 40 mpg. I've attached pictures showing the electrode and ground. They appear to be tan and "fuzzy"...

    What did you do to Your Tri-Glide Today?

    Raining outside, but I did black out the garage and took two side profile pics: one including the frontal area lit up and one with just the rear lit up. Hope this helps. When the rain quits, I'll try it outside.

    Today's Project #3 Part 2 This is the Custom Dynamics TF-R 20 LED mounted permanently in place with no power applied. This is the Custom Dynamics TF-R 20 LED mounted permanently in place with power applied. Makes a big difference! Picture was taken in a fully lighted garage. I think...

    What did you do to Your Tri-Glide Today?

    Today's Project #3 Part 1 The reflectors on the rear fender didn't suit me, as they are just that, reflectors. I wanted a more "active" marker back there. Went to Custom Dynamics and ordered a pair of their Red TF-R Tru-Flex lighting strips with 20 LEDs. Then to Amazon for 25ft - 1/8 inch Flexo...

    What did you do to Your Tri-Glide Today?

    Today's Project #1 I've seen the pictures and read the comments on the Tour-Pak tethers breaking and breaking the TP or the lid when it falls open. The parachute cord is a good idea, but I didn't want to squish it under the nuts and risk it failing at some point, too. So I went one step farther...
