Vibration

[hitime]

I know many of you have been riding HD for a long time, so you don't notice the vibration so much. But I have been riding a Goldwing for the last several years (wife's choice). We went a couple years ago and test rode a new 2013 TriGlide. Ergonomically, it wasn't any better (or any worse) than the Wing for me. However, after about a 15 minute test ride, the wife told me her legs were numb from the passenger footboard vibration. At that point, I knew we were not getting a new Triglide. My question is this: I hear that they have made some pretty significant improvements on the TG the last couple years. Can anyone tell me if the vibration is gone (or significantly reduced) in the passenger footboards on the 2015s? TIA

I'm not sure about changes since my 2015 is my one and only Trike. However, my wife has never complained about vibration or numbness and if it was there I'm pretty certain she would. I'm not going to ask her about it. Don't want to plant that seed.

I removed the grab bar for my lady. She complained some what about her legs and feet. Now, no complaint at all. Viberation? She hasn't really complained about that so much.

We have a 15 and the Misses hasn't said anything about a vibration (yet).

Hmmmm, could be why she hasn't said anything, OK back to our regular scheduled programming. For me, I do notice a very, very slight vibration on the trike, since this is my first tri glide i chalked it up to the twin motor, nothing else.
