Triking My Ultra

[Nana]

Will do!! I'm leaving here in about a half hour to pick up the Trike!! The total cost came in at $400 less than the estimate including engine work and Kit!! Supposed to be nice this weekend so I plan to put some miles on it!!

That is one of the things I appreciate about Ben..... He never charges more than actual services rendered. If time is shorter than the estimate, then charges are for a lesser time. Honest as the day is long. Gotta love that!

Well, the Copperhead is back home at last and she's BEAUTIFUL!! I only put about 50 miles on her today and to say the least the riding is different but, for lack of a better word, pleasant. I'm totally happy with it and as my skills improve I'll be even happier. Gotta get the "feel" of it as I tend to oversteer coming out of curves and understeer going in and West Virginia roads are crooked. I also tend to counter steer when first taking off like on a two wheeler but that will cease with experience. Plenty of power and the ride is more comfortable than the same bike on two wheels. I'll post some photos tomorrow....it's almost dark now and I have her on the battery tender 'cause the battery ran down a lot while she was sitting in the shop.

Nana, I relayed your regards to the "crew" at Baxters and they asked me to tell Ya HEY!!

GreyDog, I have had two trikes including the 09 TriGlide, which I have now. I wish I had triked out long ago. Love It. My wife does to. However I am 68 years old so I guess it was just time. Been riding Harleys for over 50 years.

Same here Bill, love the Trike!!! I'm 65 and still feel comfortable on two wheels riding one up but always worried about dropping it with Betty on the back. The whole riding experience is a lot better now that I don't worry about that and three wheels make for a stable platform even in the twisties.
