Newer Vanderhall Owners

[Stu Pidasso]

Wondering how many newer (2020 and newer) Vanderhall owners there are out there. I’d like to start a thread to specifically discuss these vehicles. Part numbers, maintenance tips, aftermarket parts, things to be aware of etc…..

The dealer where I bought my Tri-Glide from is a Vanderhall dealer also….And I’ve been slightly interested in them….Maybe you could post about your experience with the Vanderhalls.. pluses or minuses my drawback is storage it seems like there’s no place to store stuff on Vanderhall’s..?…

Pluses and Minus’

Hey Rhino;

I only have 500 miles on mine but that’s enough to get a feel for the pluses and minus’. First, what I like about it;

It’s a gas to drive. Handles great. Outstanding brakes.

It’s fun to have a head-turner.

Quality seems to be good.

The things I don’t care for;

There is no shop manual.

A little difficult to get in and out of because it’s so low.

Aftermarket parts are few and far between.

I’m real close to doing my first oil change. I’ll post anything I learn there.

As far as storage, there’s a compartment behind the seats that will hold some clothes or other small items. I’ve seen some people put a 10” sub woofer there to enhance the stereo.

I had a Slingshot….One of the main reason I sold it was getting in and out of it and I even had the roof to grab on to and skyhook myself out…..I do a lot of short trips of only a few miles…Sometimes three or four times a day…..That started getting old real quick ….
