Installed a lift kit on my MY19 Triglide over the weekend. I can't really tell if it change the handling or not. It does seem to take the bumps in the road a little better. I've only got about 50 miles on it. I know it's a lot more level and looks better, and I have a little bit better view over the windshield than I did, which is fine.

I guess I should also add I don't need the ramp extensions to load this on my trailer anymore. My pipes clear easily

I put them on my 11 Tri-Glide , That worked wonders for handling ,ride and not scraping pipes any more...My with 17 Tri-Glide i felt i didn't need them [IMO]:Shrug:...
 
They worked on my 2010

I put them on my new, to me anyway, 2010. I did not know before putting them on that the previous owner had removed the stock air shocks and replaced them with regular shocks. Then the twit had so much preload on them that there was absolutely no rebound to them. I removed the majority of the preload and also lengthened them before putting the lift on.

They made a world of difference in ride quality.

I have seen, on this forum, where adjusting the air pressure in the stock air shocks seems to create a better ride.

This is true.

Also, lower your rear tire PSI to 21-22 and that will also provide an improvement in ride quality.
