Don't have one YET. We are working on selling our Roadstar Bike so we can buy the Triglide Ultra Classic. Hoping it won't take too long to sell the bike so we can get to riding again.

</div>Just curious, have you test rode a Triglide? Have you test rode a Harley or a Wing w/an IRS conversion such as a Hannigan?<br />
Also, are you aware the Harley trike is no longer in production! They are to come out with their own.<br />
No intent to offend anyone as the Harley trike is a great trike for most. But, after test riding several different conversions, I found the IRS types more to my liking, of course I'm 66yrs old to!<br />
One big plus for the Harley-It has a factory warranty! Converting other bikes can and usually does void, at least drive train related failures, if not the total warranty.

Check the fuse. Some people have tripped it if they brake while pushing the reverse button. Mine has been fine for over 8000 miles.

</div>I could be wrong, but I think it's a push-button breaker under your right side panel.

The 2009's had the reverse breaker under the seat. The 2010's are under the right side panel.

Dep.dog. No longer in production? Where on earth did you hear that?

It is not news that Lehman and Harley got a divorce, and Lehman is no longer making the back end of the Tri-Glide.

I understand that Harley is going to make a proprietory trike in their own factory.
It's been on several forums for some time.

I heard they bought Lehman ...

I didn't hear that one that HD bought Lehman, I did read that HD was going to build their own trikes in York, PA and I found that on Lehman's website. Lehman Trikes 25th Anniversary | Performance, Styling and Reliability. I do have the feeling HD will outsource the components and assemble the trike stateside.

Harley is going to assemble the Triglide in York PA. Maybe the QC will be a little better. I've had the fun of tightening all the loose fasteners they didn't tighten at Lehman on both my dads 09 and my 10 Triglide.

Hopefully, the new one will be IRS! No offense meant to those who have the Harley/Lehman trike but, the solid rear axle was to rough a ride for me! But, I'm nearly 66years old!

My dad test road a DFT kitted Road Glide before he decided to get a Triglide. He's been happy with his 09 Triglide, no complaints with the ride. He had about 13,000 miles on it now and we're getting ready to leave for SD in a little over a week. We figure the round trip will be abour 3,400+ miles, BTW my dads 66. I've never ridden an independent suspended trike so I can't compare the ride between my Triglde and the IRS, I can say it rides pretty good to me, smoother then my 06 Ultra.
