What did you do to Your Tri-Glide Today?

I rode a couple hundred miles yesterday. Weather was great and the wife took the day off work to go with me. Checked out some old ancestral haunts and man things have changed.
 
Thanks Kevin!
….Today I also just installed the PTM (HOK Kandy Brandywine) on the @DK Custom Products cooling Deflector wings!
(The color is a 100% match, but will take on different shades depending on how the light is reflecting on/off any painted parts).

I also had to double check to make sure I had the correct sides installed correctly, lol!
I think I’m good. 👍🏻

Here’s pics of those installed!

I think you might have CWD's on the wrong sides. Looking at mine, I'm pretty sure actually.

Before I sent them off to paint, I took pics when I unwrapped them…. Maybe DK customs marked them incorrectly??
I’ll have to take another look including pics off their site too. (Possibly I’m looking at them backwards? lol!

Note: I do not have a tank lift, and was ordered correctly (without tank lift).

Kevin @DK Custom Products may want to chime in if possible…IMG_4108.jpegIMG_4107.jpegIMG_4110.jpegIMG_4109.jpegIMG_4105.jpeg

By looking at pics online, mine appear to be installed correctly…. Heres pics (with & without lowers), but the bend, bends towards the front from what I see.
(Including with tank lifts, it appears to be installed the same).
It also looks like there have been some different versions of the cooling deflector wings too.
Some are straight, some have a couple curves at the top side.
Kevin @DK Custom Products , what’s your assessment on the installation on these?
(Mine also looks smaller too). IMG_5425.jpegIMG_5424.jpegIMG_5426.jpegIMG_5427.jpegIMG_5428.jpeg

Thanks,

Installed the black wheel discs on the rear in addition to fender welting (both from RJS originals), and was riding the trike by my indie shop and the cat fell out. Doing Tab Bam Sticks while at Daytona Bike Week in a few weeks.
The BAM sticks are great. I got a tuner also, really helps the low end power.
 
Installed my new to me mufflers on the trike. Garage floor yoga, no lift and the hairy beast dog was my helper, crawls under the trike with me then grabs bolts and tools and runs away. Those hanger bolts are a bit of a fiddle especially when the hairy helper is licking the face! Thankful for my heated little shop as temps are -22 C with light snow. (don't tell our nation's illegitimate leader I have a heated shop, probably think I don't pay enough taxes)

Mine look like the 2nd and 4th picture and I do have a 1.5" deluxe tank lift as well. Ours my just be 2 different designs is why yours didn't look right to me. All good sir. Carry on.

replaced the shifter pegs that were on my trike. nothing ground breaking just that the ones that was on it were small, and my big foot had issues trying to find neutral with them, found some good sized ones that fit great, and looks nice as well, not to mention now I can hit neutral just about everytime. so a nice win-win.20250207_184521.jpg20250207_184528.jpg20250207_184540.jpg

You picked a good mod. I needed to do that right after I installed DK Customs floor board extensions. Just couldn't deal with that stubby little factory shifter peg.

Wow!

Those look really good. If you don't mind, we'd like to use one of those photos on our website!

What brand are these?
JTJersey got it in one, looks like the same ones, good price and a good foot feel, I highly reccomend.


If nstahg8r doesn't see your post or reply I can tell you mine, and I have the chrome one as well, is a Drag Specialties part purchased from eBay.

Today I installed my “Figurati Designs” Magnetic Dipstick.
This ingenious idea that Kerry Cromer (owner) designed not only looks incredible, but is extremely beneficial to help catch any metal particles floating around in our oil pan that our oil filter or magnetic drain plug does not capture.
It contains a 2000 gauss Neodymium magnets in the end of the dipstick.
Many already heard or know about this, but many also do not.
(I’ll post a video soon on this).

Those are correct....on a Trike they can actually be mounted either way, but the configuration in the photos above push more air over the engine than if you swap.
