The brown metallic paint of the 110th Anniv. and the plethora of badges all over the bike didn't do anything for me. I have a "regular" 2013 and I love it.
Plus IMO, only the 100th Anniv. of the brand justified specific models.

Need way more than a Badge & a 107 motor for me to swap over. Still have two more years on the warranty.

I don't know what it is with the H-D designers but we have 4 anniversary year bikes and only my "95th" Heritage Springer is a true AE bike (Midnight Red & Champagne) and this year's color doesn't do anything for me either!

If I was to get a Tri-Glide this year, I think if would either be Tempest Black or the two-tone red model.

I still have 2+ years of warranty left on my bike so I guess I'll just wait and see what they have to offer in '19 or '20.

i have a '14 and for the last 12 years I have been trading every 4 years, not this year.
I was hoping for a Tri-Glide with a 114 or 117 engine standard, I usually add exhaust, stage I and a tuner, I don't want to do a $2500 114 upgrade.
Keep what I got.

But, anyhow, I'm surprized Harley hasn't offered a CVO type of TriGlide. It would be a limited market and pricey. But, it would be nice to have the following from the factory.
- 114 motor
- chrome fork sliders
- chrome hand controls
- chrome wheels

I'm very happy with my '12 with all the stuff I've fine to it, and am not planning to replace it. But, just thinking a CVO would be cool...albeit pricey.

Glad you mentioned that. It's about time for my ritual dump before bedtime ................

Tri Geezer

I mention the black out on the other models....I don't like most of the new models...
Ultra and Tri Glides didn't change much, softail lineup is where most of the changes occurred...they ruined the heritage classic....imo

They could easily increase the sale of the TriGlide by simple items such as a complete revamp of the infotainment. Update lifetime maps and POI, a much better standard stereo.
Then add the 110 motor, a nice seat. Simple things.
