Pics: FLRT with lowers

[Keystone]

Installed the lowers, highway pegs and TomTom Rider this morning. One thing left and that is the heat deflectors. They are at the painters having a bit of art put on them. Hope to have them back before I leave for my trip next week.

That is my folding cane.....

I installed Hog Troughs on the lowers. The Cane holder mounts under the water bottle holder.

You can. They sell a set for your too. Give them a call. He might have a few of the cane holders still in stock.

We are all a bunch of old gimps. My cane is in the trunk I usually park next to wife's Tri-Glide to give myself a grab handle to help getting off my scoot. Old age is the shitts!

My doctor told me getting old is not for wimps!

Sure beats the alternative.

Sure beats the alternative.

depends on your quality of life

I have a buddy that lays his cane across the handlebars. Uses those short little ball end bunges to hold it is place.

I'm thinking rifle scabbard strapped along the forks if I ever get bad enough to need a cane again...

Can you get a close up pic of the water bottle holder and cane holder? Thanks

Like these?

Yes, just like those. Thank you.

Recently I ordered a spare cover for the left side and I figured I would try to mount a conventional bicycle water bottle holder to the cover. IF I messed it up or IF a full bottle was too heavy for the cover to stay in place I was only out $14.00 and still have the stock cover. But after looking at Hog Troughs (thanks to the link that you provided) I now know it can be done, and a locking cover would ensure it would stay in place with a full bottle.

Right now I have a water bottle cage mounted to the left side cover and I can easily reach back and grab it even while riding. But having up front would be safer.

As for canes. IBefore I got my hip(s) replaced I could not swing a leg over a motorcycle or even a Trike, and had used a trecking pole to get around with. Since I have had the Trike I have contemplated the possibility that I may need to use a cane at some point in the future. I found that one would fit along the side on top of the trunk, and could be held in place with a simple spring clip. The hardest part would be drilling the hole through the top of the trunk.

To the OP, are the lowers HD or after market?

I use my brace most of the time instead of the cane. If I think i will need it I put it in the trunk.
My brace usually is good enough most of the time. Im suppose to wear it all the time but I buck.

I hear a lot of that to.
