There are plenty of guys that have over $50K in their TriGlides. A new current model TriGlide with just freight, tax and zero options, accessories, pipes, performance mods or extended warranty is $40K. Have you ever seen a stock Harley or a stock Goldwing? Factor in the Boss Hoss and other V8 trikes, the Rewacos, customs, the average is up there.
I can guarantee you that if the TriGlide owners added up every penny they have spent on their trike, there would be a lot more in the $40K to $50K and over $50K categories. Most of us dont want to think about what we have in our toys because it really doesn't matter as much as being happy and enjoying life.
As a community, we are all closer to the end than the beginning so peace, joy and happiness matters. Most trike and trike conversions are sold due to the wife's descision, I see it all the time.
.........................Wow, Zook pegged me cold! (Have 2016 Harley Triglide bought new last year)....and I didnt think I really could or should afford it. Got it anyway....now the little fatty keeps getting more and more things added constantly! Each time I say "Thats enough spent on this trike!"...... (and then later I visit a Harley Dealer or see a website that has something I just gotta have)
....Zook is correct about all!!!! .....even down to reason for buying the 3 wheeler when I told wife we should get a motorcycle for fun.
.......................= Wife told me "Get the trike or take a hike!" (and she knew I didn't do any hiking)
..... WOW! I've been so exposed!
