Hello from central Illinois. Just bought the bike May 27th and really enjoying it. Have added windshield,sissybar and arm rest. Changed to a tallboy seat. It set me back a little farther so took the sissybar to a machine shop and they redid it to set it back 2 1/2 inches and it fits us a lot better. Learning a lot on this forum thanks everybody!!!!!

Learning a lot on this forum thanks everybody!!!!!Welcome to TT from Bellville, Texas. You have done some nice upgrades! I also had a fab shop build a new passenger backrest that moved it back about 2-1/2". Made it much more comfortable for the 2 of us to ride.

I was riding around yesterday, after visiting Simi Harley dealer. They replaced my trunk liner (that they had drilled a hole in)and plugged the hole in the trunk bottom. More warranty work. I like the staff there!

Fabricated backrest bracket
Very interested in moving the backrest back a few inches. I'm 6'9" and when my gets on she pushes mr forward and makes for a crowded fit. Could you post a few pictures the bracket installed?

Hello everyone from Center, ND!
View attachment 38528I've had my Freewheeler in Velocity red for about 3 weeks and I love it! I originally had a 2016 Heritage Classic but was having trouble with the weight of the bike and didn't feel confident on it. My awesome husband, Jim, traded in his Ultra Limited, bought the Freewheeler for me and is now riding the Heritage. All so we can ride together.
I added the windshield, tall boy handlebars, luggage rack, back bumper, driver backrest, stage 1 exhaust system which helps with the heat issue immensely, heat deflectors, charging station for the iPhone (for music only), body protection, and turn indicator extensions, which are great. I think that's enough changes for now!

What a generous husband you have
I'd love to see your upgrades, the tall bars and charging station. But the link didn't go anywhere for me....
What a generous husband you have
Yes, he is very generous! I'll get some better pics and post. The bars are more narrow and sit back a bit more since I seem to have short arms. I couldn't quite reach the grips when using the backrest. We still have some adjustments to make.
USB charging station. It's pretty small, but has 2 ports.What a generous husband you have
Shot of the new bars, a little taller, back a bit and closer together.

Fairing
Did you notice an increase in heat after Fairing installed? I raised my tank 2" and put heat shields on and that reduced the heat significantly. But now that my Fairing was installed yesterday I noticed a very significant increase in heat.
