Frenchbiker was kind enough to provide me with this link, you can get your reverse motor gone over correctly for $350.

I like the reverse it's got now, and I've got another 3 years warranty on my '14 Tri Glide; and if anything happens after that, for the price of a mechanical reverse I can get it fixed three more times. If that doesn't last me for as long as I can ride this thing, I'll just take the hit on doing it again.

Depends what needs to be replaced. The whole replacement set of parts (brushes, solenoid, armature) sell for $125 on eBay and that's without labor.

Congrats on the purchase of the new TriGlide.

Thanks. What you said is true however, if I take my reverse motor to a specialist, I'd rather have him replace all the components at once than try to save a few bucks and have to send it back later due to a failure of another component.

You obviously know more about them than me. I'm done here.

From a wise old starter motor repair shop old friend by the way. Nine out of ten all that is needed are brushes and a good cleaning, water and road debris does a number on them. just sayin... me I don't fix what ain't broke. travel safely Fred

Mine started backing slowly today and now just clicks when you engage reverse. Any suggestions?

Mostly the brushes, I changed them myself Twice, I ride all winter and in the snow, Salt and water corrode the brushes...The third time i took it to a throw-back shop from the 50's...Handed him the motor...After 4 other shops said they wouldn't do it..He said wait here and his man did a full rebuild in a half hour...
95 Dollars, But after a little more than a year, The brushers corroded again..
And thats when i went with a mechanical reverse... Should have did that the first time...
