Well the day finally arrived!!!!!!! Wife & I took our Trike for the first ride, only thing left for me to do is have some pinstriping done, and add a set of lights on the fenders. Hannigan kit looks great on my 2004 Ultra, I also added the aqua shields. Had to really stay focused, and remember to keep it in the center of lane, I've had 2 wheeler's for a long time, and this is a whole new ballgame. We did 148 miles and it was just awesome. I would like to Thank everyone who helped with any questions I had, and a special Thank you to Ted (tmigala) who spent alot of time on the phone with me when I was going to install the Champion kit on my Bike, but when the Hannigan kit came available, thats the one I originally wanted. Also special Thanks to Ultraboy for the extension, and to Nana for all her help with my many questions. I believe everyone reading these posts will have to agree that this forum is made up of some amazing and helpful people. I'll have to post some pictures real soon.
 
That is great the more U ride the better U are going to feel with the trike....
Looking forward to seeing the pictures.... Have fun and keep the Queen happy!!!!!!
 
Almost 150 miles on your maiden voyage.... NICE! Can't wait for the pictures! I'll keep an eye on your profile page for an album to pop up :D
 
BIG CONGRATS!
And welcome to the party! :party:

Isn't that first trike ride the best thing ever? You had a nice long one, too.
Watching for pictures!

I am happy for you, it won't take you long to realize that "You won't be styin' unless your three wheel ridin'!"

Miles and I welcome you, and arelooking forward to some great pictures.
 
Yea, I may have to go out to Nursery (garage) and start up the wood burning stove, it's only 38 here today, the "Little-One" is'nt used to these temps. yet, have to throw extra blanket over him.
 
Now we have 3 Newbies Tony, Jeff and George.
in the next coming week.. Well How was the first 25 miles?

I have read all the post from the old timers and need to
learn more and more. Not sure if I will be even able to
ride next week when it is done. SNOW!
I guess I could put studded tires on it. giggle:

The first ride is great the 2nd is better my first ride every year is terrific and my 5,000 is not bad either. ENJOY.
 
I took some pictures today and posted them in the garage section. All I have to do now is add some spoiler lights to the fenders and have the pinstriper make a house call. Yesterday when I got up, ground was covered with snow again. But it did'nt stay around, all gone now. (for the moment)
