Default 2015 Freewheeler.

I am not a trike guy, but WOW, Harley made a beautiful one with this. I saw one and sat on one and this thing is very cool. The one on the floor was vivid black, and I think it outshines the other 2 colors available (this is my opinion based on pictures)

One of my friends is looking at trikes, and is seriously considering one of these. He is hoping to find a demo unit somewhere to ride one.

Up until I saw this, I was very disappointed in the 2015 offerings, especially the redesign on the road glide (catfish).

I looked at one yesterday but not in the market. I liked it as its a roadking looking trike. I liked the fender but not sure about the trunk. I would have made the trunk removable with a cargo bed with visible and clean rear suspension area when removed. Sounds dumb right, not to me.

Not a trike guy either, but the Freewheeler is sharp.

I like it, have been considering a trike, but the price of the Triglide kept me away.
Plus, all the crap, fairing, etc on the bike made it a no deal for me, I prefer a stripped down model, and they finally did it.
The freewheeler is actually reasonably priced compared to the triglide.
I liked the FLHXX streetglide trike, but again, the price kept me away.
I'm still holding out on buying one, got a few more years in me on 2 wheels I hope!

I would be curious how it does performance wise. I know some guys complained the tri-glides were slugs. Being lighter it might be fun
