Another New Old Guy

02/21/2015
Hello to all Trikers from Del Rio, TX,
Been riding bikes since 1957. But wife says I'm getting too old to wrestle big heavy bikes anymore and put her foot down and said only way I can continue riding was if I got a Trike. Found a 2012 HD Tri-Glide in Alpine, TX with 2000 miles that the Sheriff there had for sale. At first it was a little un-nerving when I finally figured out it doesn't do any good to lean into curves. The dynamics are so different from two wheels. But now that I have gotten used to it the wife and I LOVE it. It does get awfully hot in the summer so want to add some Love Jugs to help manage the excess heat. Also want to find out if the new Auxiliary Tank by Roadsmith fits the factory 2012 Tri-Glide. Certainly want to add some more range to my Trike that the extra 3 gallons would help with. Anyone know if it fits the stock 2012 HD Tri-Glide?
Enjoy the forum and reading everyone's comments. Keep the sunny side up and BE BLESSED!

Welcome from Mooresville / Charlotte, NC.

I called Road Smith and was told that the 3 gallon fuel tank will NOT fit on a stock Harley Tri-Glide. I'm looking for more fuel capacity myself.
 
Hey, Sheriff, can't help you with the Love Jugs or the Auxiliary tank, but I can welcome you from NW Illinois. I'm sure there are others that can provide you with the knowledge you seek.;)

Welcome, from downtown Central Texas, sometimes called Austin, sometimes called Weird, all descriptions are correct! Would love to have more fuel myself, but will have to figure that out latter, or I could do this ............
