There are a variety of options to get a smoother riding Tri-Glide.

As Coastal mentioned, you can do a minimum of the Convertible Comfort Lift™, along with dialing in your PSI on your rear shocks to get some improvement.

Welcome Johneeze. As was said about tire pressure & air shocks. I run my rear tires around 23 psi and since I am a heavier guy, I ran my shocks around 40 psi. 2 up and loaded, I ran the shocks at about 45 psi. Others here run a # or 2 less in the tires and shock pressure will vary to each person's comfort. My back gives me issues so I just got DK's comfort lift & 14 in trike shocks. Got them installed today, but no chance to ride up here yet this year. I did bounce my foot on the rear bumper and there is a lot more movement now than before. Come on spring!!

With no independent suspension the TG rides like an old 1970 4X4. To be honest I don't really mind how it rides in my home state and numerous other places that we travel to each year. However, we always spend about 2 months south of you in Illinois. During that period of time riding on those roads is when I start thinking about upgrading my suspension. Illinois roads are among the worse in the nation. In the last 18 months while visiting I had the headlight broke on my TG and the windshield cracked on my car.
