What did you do to Your Tri-Glide Today?

I’m just getting a replacement fan . I’ve got the chrome mighty mites on my 21 TriGlide and am really happy . Replacing the fan takes about a half hour . Don’t know why but this is the second time the same one went out.
I had one go bad on my 17, the fix is pretty easy, my guess is the heat and vibration caused mine to fail after 2 years
 
Pulled the trigger on a Freewire and a pair of Sena 20S EVOs. The Freewire paired easy and sounds great thru the 20s EVOs. Hated the Freewire hanging off the handlebars with the pigtail wire swinging in the breeze. So I came up with a hack. Ordered a 7 pin DIN MxF 5ft cord. Ran it back to the tourpac, added another cigarette lighter socket to power the Freewire up on start. Ran the wires through the excising grommet hole but one with a larger hole so everything fits. Also made a passthru in the tourpac liner insert and ran the connections under my TP organizer and up behind it to the Freewire. Out of the way but still easy to get to. Much cleaner look.freewire1.jpgfirewire6.jpg

Nicely done
 
Didn't like the Sony radio after installing it, sent it back and got JVC, I like it much better, it has better sound and is much more user friendly, I highly recommend Note Cycles for radios, the price is a little higher, but the radios come with the harness prewired and wrapped and the dash kit installed, it's ready to install when you get it, and their customer service and tech support is excellent, they exchanged the radio with no question and even sent a prepaid UPS return label and now, I'm going to attempt to adjust the clutch with a little help from you tube
 
My friend and I spent the day installing 14” Supershox on both of our 2020 Tri-Glides. Mine required an exhaust extension pipe since I still have the stock head pipe. Start to finish it took about 6 hours to complete both bikes. After I put some miles on it, I’ll put up a review for the shocks. I also removed the reverse motor on mine so I can rebuild it. That’s still in work. I’m riding without it until I figure out exactly what I need to do it right the first time.IMG_3732.jpeg
 
Yesterday dropped the tri-glide off at the dealer for the first [ 1000] mile, service and tour pack extender installation. I figured it was going to be there anyway might as well have them do the tour pack also. I do most things myself, but they just charge about an hour for the tour pack so what the hey. I always get the first service done by the dealer. After that they very seldom see it. This is the first bike I've ever owned that the bars actually seemed about right, I haven't decided yet if I'm going to change them. The windshield is about the right Height also, I'll leave it on until I need to change it.
 
Threw in a tour pack organizer and went for a ride out in the country for a couple of hours. I'v got some bars in the garage to put on , just waiting for some extensions to show up. Doubt I'll need them, just depends on if I feel like farting around with the clutch cable or not. Picked up a Fat Baggers EZ Clutch Adjustor while I was at it.

You’ll like the EZ adjuster on the clutch cable. I added that and one of their 4” cable extensions when I changed to the 2+2 bars.
 
It was a little cold (50's) and we got a bit of rain, but Zion National Park is always Fun!
