Trike Handling.

Kevin, that's exactly what happens to me - AND - you would think that the H-D GPS would know where all the H-D dealers are - WRONG!!! I bet on all my trips the dealer locations are wrong about 30% of the time. Even one of my local dealerships is portrayed as being in the middle of I294 5 miles away from the correct location. :AGGHH:

I've had the GPS unit completely stop working a couple times. After turning the trike off and then on after 10 minutes , it worked again.

I can load 50 destinations into my Zumo 660 in the same time it would take me to put in about 8 destinations in the H-D unit.

I don't know how much better it is on the '16's - hopefully a lot better.

Kevin, don't try a Garmin Zumo GPS - you will be completely amazed and buy one immediately. :D :D


eeek! That would be super frustrating to have that many wrong directions.

I've had that one place in Alabama (twice-there and back), and then a couple other times it got confused, but that is it. I'll take your advice and won't try the Zumo...I'm still pretty enthralled with the HD one. :laugh:

edit to my above post- More than a few times, when using the POI to find a Super 8 Motel, it has taken me to a Motel that used to be a Super 8, but is not any longer.

I don't know if that is the GPS at fault, or if someone is not updating a database somewhere.

Not the GPS's fault. Updaters fault. I've had the same problem with an Arby's location.
 
I test road a 11 and 16 TG. Big differance to me. For one the 14 is the first year that has a hydraulic clutch. With arthritis in my hands it had to be the 2014 and up for me. I'm still shopping for a Trike. Right now I have a 07 Wing that was thinking of a trike conversion, or another one already Triked. So far I test road a Can Am, Goldwing with a CSC kit, and both the Harleys I mentioned. So far I really like the 2014 and above TG's. I was surprised how good it handled, and how good the ride was.
