Beautiful cycle.

If you pull the trigger, here are some customizations to consider:

I thought the side cover was too much paint and needed to be broken up. I placed the script that is on the trunk on each side cover (adhesive backing on script).

I placed a 3M scuff protector and lined it up with the passenger's floorboard as my wife's foot destroyed the paint on a previous cycle.

When I thought I was done, it still didn't look right. I realized that it looked better (balanced) with a 2nd antenna. The stud is there on my 2014. I'm guessing it is there on a 2017

That is absolutely one beauuuuuuuutiful trike! Bonneville Blue/Fathom Blue.


I didn't notice the contrasting colors until you put the three oics up. I really miss that dark green they had for 2016 although I very much like my 2016 Mysterious Red/Sunglo Red trike.

Yeah, it's still there under the pop out plug. I prefer one antenna. And, I ride solo. I removed my passenger floorboards.

Mikey, That is a very different ride than your Tri Glide. Additionally, it seems they are offering you a bit of a low value for your trade-in although I can't remember how many miles you have put on that 2016 TGU?

That is about double the average for a trike rider, let alone one on two wheels.
