Wing to tri-glide

I had just the opposite experience. My dealer had a Trike Day and had the TriGlide, a DFT kit installed on a TG and a mock up of a direct replacement rear end kit(not available at that time). I took test rides on both and decided on the stock TG. The cost for the other two was way too much for me. The only difference in the test ride was on a bad road (they did have one) the IRS was good, but when I thought about it, how often was I going to be on bad roads where the IRS was needed. Not much so I crossed the IRS off my list. I have not looked back and have been happy ever since.

Test ride them all and think about how and where you ride and if the IRS is really needed.

Also think about resale/trade in value, dealer/service locations and factory warranty. I've heard scary stories about who will address any problems.

Good Luck on whatever you decide
 
I went from the TRIGLIDE to a Spyder and am really happy with the ride. The Tank was hot and drove like one too. At the time the compensators were junk and got no oil to the critical areas of the compensator.

Anyway my body has been really happy with the smooth ride.
:D

The tank got to the point I could no longer ride more than a hour at a time on it and felt all beat up after a ride.

That is not the way I want to enjoy my rides.:laugh:
