Sounds good but just wish the coolers weren't in the lowers. I hate the lowers and took em off after the first few miles.
Got a 2014 Triglide

I was just on the H-D website. The specs say there is gear indication in the lighting specs. Is this just the 6 gear or have they changed it to include all gears?
congrads on your new trike
i believe its all gear indication and parking brake indicator also..for those of us that forget the parking brake is still engaged..
1. indicator for all gears
2. no heated grips on TG
3. Why didn't you keep the Zepplin seat? You could have put it on the '14 or sold it.
There's no way I could sit in one position longer then an hour. Thank god for the RZ seat.
4. I don't ride with a passenger

So you are saying that the rear suspension has been modified so that the 2014 stock model will not need the shock lift kit from Dennis?
Have you riden enough and used the GPS yet that you can say what it's like to look down to the GPS while riding?
And I always thought that the CB was nice because you could talk bike to bike (other HDs or other brands with a CB - ie: GW).

I can't tell from pictures and haven't seen a new triglide yet at our dealers. My question, is the 2014 OIL COOLER the same as the older ones? Have they changed the shape or hookup for accomodating the liquid head coolers. ?

no oil cooler..the water pump is in place of the oil cooler
That's great to hear!! I have my 2011 Tri Glide up for sale, waiting on a Mysterious Red Sunglow to come in at my dealer. Can't wait for it to get here, should be in sometime late Sept. or early Oct. hopefully in time for Thunder Beach.
It's in the classifides here if you know anyone looking for one at a great price.
Thanks for posting your assessment of the 2014.

Heated grips are not standard. I bought them when I bought the trike, but have to wait a couple of weeks for the dealer to get them.

indicates all 6 gears
If that is true then thats no good!!
So where do they get "Twin Cool", just from having two radiators?
Maybe next year when they decide to put it back on?

I picked mine up Monday the 26th. Ditto on everything you say. I will do 200 mile trip tomorrow on Florida back roads to get more acquainted with my new girl and break her in. Only 50 miles so far so can't confirm anything.
I will say that I rented a 2013 TG a week before for 2 days (350 miles) and rode to see if I liked it. The heat on the 2014 is way less.
I rode in shorts. I traded in a flhtk with engine mods to cool it down and so far I can't say that there's a heat problem with the new bike. Time will tell but sooner or later the cat will be gone!
Twin Cool = Air & water cooled. The cylinders are air cooled and the heads are water cooled.
OK, I get it now.
Next year they'll have the oil cooler back.......
They may need to reconfigure or move it, but, I'd bet it will be back.

The Harley dealer today told me that it still has the oil cooler and also now the water coolers, that is where the dual cooler name from....
Dealer is incorrect. The oil cooler is gone, that's where the water pump is.
Having not seen one in real life yet, I asked a dealer, they said it still had it, in fact had sold some new Ultras and said it was there, but all admitted they had not LOOKED!! :>) Sure looks like pump and rheostate are in the same place.
I have a feeling if they are gone that no one is bringing attention to it at dealers. Shouldn't be long before I see one, or an ultra, here to check out.
Seems like someone on here with a new one would postr a picture???????
Not true!! Air and Liquid Cooled is the twin cooling that H-D is advertising. The bikes without the Liquid Cooling still have the Oil Coolers.:Shrug:

Yes, I HAVE seen new bikes without the new engine that still do have the cooler.
As I said, A picture would be worth a thousand words.
I'll wait until next year as I think it will return as the new "TRIPLE COOLING" engine, 'RUSHMORE DOS':Excited:
