A friend of mine just traded his 16 Tri Glide for a 19. I saw it at the dealers. Standard M8 114, ABS,traction control and a dial adjustable rear shocks. That setup is awesome. Didn't check into the other features.

 

 

What kind of deal did he get ?

 

 

I was at my dealer yesterday and looked at a '19 Tri. and noticed a couple of things that make wonder but didn't get a chance to talk to someone. They have moved the reverse switch to the start switch but the switch still shows the hazard switch above the start so I am wondering how does the start/reverse system work. Traction control what is that and how does it work? and no $38k and all the extra costs will make me stay with my '16 till they burn me up on it.

 

Basically it adjusts the power feed into each wheel so that if one starts to slip the power to it drops a little to help it regain traction.
Going around bends, the power is adjusted left-to-right (as the bend goes, of course) to maintain bike-road traction and control.

(super simpled) Wheel slip starts = reduce power to that wheel until slip stops (straight line slip, wheel spin, or cornering slip)

I'm gonna wait a while and see if anyone reports sumping or fluid migration in these new trikes.

 

Keeping mine...its paid for..lol

 

Ya, same here.

 

Same here...at least until the perplexing M8 issues get resolved.

 

Hardheaded. I haven't talked to him directly yet but the salesman told me that is was his when I saw the 19 on the floor. His trade in is on the lot now and I am curious about the deal and will see him soon.

I'm interested in his trade. It is a beauty and well taken care of.
