I think it stands out. Which I'm sure is the reason he made it that way. To be different and to look different. I see more Tri-Glides out there this year then the past. Which means their catching on. But most of them look the same. Even the chrome add-ons that a lot of the Tri-Glide owners are adding on their trikes. You do that to be different, to fit your tastes. But your all still basically looking the same. Where as this custom trike is different and so is mine and so is Toms to mention a few. Its good to see an OEM machine getting a custom look added to it and not just by chrome store bought doo-dads. Now about the build this guy did. Its way too low for my taste. He will have to be aware of drive-way exits, junk on the road that he may have to straddle. That oil cooler is just waiting on a speed bump.

I was riding Baggers when they were called "Geezer-Glides" . Then the Street Glide came out and the custom builders jumped on the bandwagon and all of a sudden Baggers were cool. I think the same thing is going to happen with the Tri-Glide. Just like the baggers some of the designs were not very practical but it did lead to a lot of new parts development that was a plus for riders I'm glad I have mine and it will be interesting to see what they come up with.

A person can be different and it will appeal to most folks. Your trike is different but it has great appeal. For what it is worth I certainly would be proud to own it. One of the majhor changes I would do to it is PAINT it all one color.

Kind of the way I loook at it is I'm not necessarily looking to be different, just add things that I like. If someone else adds the same bling as I do I just consider that rider to have the same good taste as I do. Everytime someone makes changes to their TG they are just spending more money on an already expensive piece. If someone buys a CVO they are buying one that looks just like all other CVO's.
