I do like the new trikes and look forward to seeing them arrive at our local dealerships. In preparation of their arrival, l recommend we add Street Glide 3 (SG 3) to the title of this thread or simply shorten the name of this thread to "Trikes". (I thought I'd be first ;-) )

Yeah I kinda thought that way back. We have a lot of people that have conversions, I had a 03 883 that had a DFT kit on it. Was a great little trike.

I agree with you, my 2022 CVO Tri Glide rides nice with DK shocks and I hardly use reverse.
I also think it looks better (color & fender style) so I will keep mine and the $10K upgrade cost to switch.

I do really like the new trikes but will miss the iconic Harley Davidson full front fender!

A new suspension looks very interesting ,not sure about the new reverse. Disappointed no more Freewheeler, I just don't care for fairings or radios. I love no windshield on the open road, unless it's a rainy day.
Going to take my time on this one.

Just a couple of thoughts. Are the fenders on the SG3 and the RG3 the same? For the SG3, I would prefer the old fenders, on the RG3 I like them. I surprised that they didn’t figure out a way to add a bit more storage for the RG3, maybe reshape the back a bit. Don’t really care for the new batwing though. Puzzled by the drop in fuel mileage according to their website, the 117 vvt touring bike didn’t lose any. Wonder if has to do with the extra gearing for reverse. Anyway looking forward to testing a both.
