Thanks for letting me join. I just got a 2012 Triglide a few weeks ago. Been riding for over 60 years. Had a old 45"trike back in 72. So guess I went full circle. .. This one has lots more power though. Was just looking , but this one only had 5300 miles on it . We were at Sturgis looking. And this one closer to home was the best deal. Retired after working on Mack trucks just short of 40 years...
 
:welcome: to Trike Talk, glad to have U with us. :wave4:

Congrats on the trike. :clapping:
 
Welcome to Trike Talk

You surely know your way around a Maxidyne I bet;)



Yup Had some thermodynes In "B" models when I started. Worked on everything till the Volvo crap showed up... I let the younger ones have them,,, I only worked on the good trucks....

Thanks for all the welcomes... I've already learned a lot on here... I just checked out all the pics of DK's trip... We were out to Black Hills and Yellow Stone in July on two wheels. Then back out to Sturgis for the Rally , still on two... Started looking at trikes out there. Had seen the one I bought on Craig's List down by St Louis before we went... The more I looked at out there the better this one looked.

I wasnt going to get one for a few years... But with 5300 miles and the color I wanted, I called from Sturgis and when we got home I went and got it... Got my lift on, got a bumper and hitch on, changed mufflers. Its a stage 1 already, but it had turndown V&H on it and they used the turndowns as bumpers for backing into stuff...

Road like a lumber-wagon coming home... Had 32 in rear tires , 11 in the shocks and 22 in the front tire... Was 215 miles from home on junk 2 lane roads... Got the air all fixed , and the lift on, Still thinking about putting DK's shocks on ... And a V&H fuelpac 3 like I had on my Ultra, on it...

Welcome to the forum from Western Pennsylvania, Congrats. on the upgraded ride. Travel safe Fred
 
Thanks for all the welcomes. Been raining off and on, But got about 1200 miles on it so far.. Riding double. Still take Softail out solo. She doesnt like not having the tour pack around her.... I looked at the old title, the last owner only put 50 miles on it... Guess I kind of blew that out of the water. Got it riding pretty good, but think I'm going with DK shocks in the spring... Not to many days of good riding weather left in Iowa this fall...
