Thank you very much for the good advice. I am 65 years old and I am no longer comfortable riding my 2014 H-D ultra classic. I asked my dealer to find me a tri-glide for the future. I am learning a lot about this type of motorcycle watching your videos. Thanks again.
I appreciate you watching Gaetan and it was absolutely the best decision for me. The feeling of security and safety is a wonderful feeling. You take care and ride safe. Respectfully, Ed
You’re never too young for a Triglide friend. I’m 52 and I have one. It’s like riding a lazy boy recliner with wheels. It’s pure comfort going down the road.
You hit the nail right on the head referring to accessories 👏... I have a 2019 HD Tri-Glide Ultra, and any to all accessories I put on are a needed item for long distance riding. Comfort for both my wife & I, no more no less! At 59 (middle age 👊), I prefer both comfort in riding, and timeliness in loading & off loading and the Trike offers both in my opinion. Like you I went from (2) wheels to (3) wheels, & I am sold on it.. which is to say I am sticking with a Tri-Glide. Great tutorial Ed on accessories and how easy it is to handle a (3) wheel motorcycle...👊respect👊
Thank you Steve. Myself and some friends just got home last night from a 3 day ride to the Tail of the Dragon. Great ride but more importantly greater friends! Have fun, ride safe my friend.
Once again great advice Ed. We just picked up our 2021 TriGlide and what a fun ride. No doubt different because I've been riding 2 wheels for 41 years now.
All good upgrades that was useful. The advice you gave priceless!! As I have heard and say, stay in your own pay grade!! Everyone needs to watch out for number 1!! Keep the videos coming. Be good and be safe!!
I'm 76 and bought my first trike this summer. I did the same thing at the first stop sign, put my foot down. A couple of afternoons on the back streets and was comfortable with the steering. Very relaxing at stoplights. I wish i had bought a Tri Glide years ago. 40 some years on 2 wheeled Harleys was fun, but i love this trike. I did put a lift kit on the back so it sits level abd it doesn't scrape my pipes when going over speed bumps or loading it on a trailer. The lift kit lets it steer easier, also.
Thank you very much taking the time to do video and for safety advice, wife and I recently purchased our tri glide waiting for good riding weather... Semperfi Spenc
My wife and I traded both our Harleys in on a brand new 2020 tri glide for the safety reason like you said. I'm 49 and she's 52. For us it's so much more enjoyable now
Added heel shifter, trunk guard, 12” light smoke windshield so far. What phone mount do you have? Ram? Haven’t seen any new videos from you lately. Figured you was polishing bike.
@@rickthompson2768 hey Rick I actually rode to the Salem VA this past Wednesday and did some video of the ride. Rick my audio is TERRIBLE so I’m going to try and do a voiceover. The little cheap Chinese knockoff camera I use has a really bad audio setup. I hope to get something better the future. I hope to do another accessory type video using my iPhone within the next week or so. Don’t give up on me brother. Remember Rick, “Have fun, Ride safe”. Respectfully, Ed
@@TriGlideEd Hey Ed! Hope you are doing well. Haven’t seen any new videos posted in quite a while so I thought I would check on you.Best time of year to ride is near! Wishing you a healthy recovery friend. Take care.Rick
@@rickthompson2768 Hey Rick I'm doing fair. I had back surgery in mid July and still on the "recovery" road. I go back and see my surgeon the end of next week and will see what she has to say. I've been on restrictions since surgery but am gradually coming off some of those. I hope you're doing well. Take care, Ed
Excellent video and comments Ed. Glad you are enjoying your Tri Glide. They sure are nice. I have a 2019 and had no problems getting used to it, even after 50+ years on 2 wheels. Maybe having lots of ATV experience helped. My test ride was in 30° upstate New York weather so was very short. I realized right away it wasn't going to be a problem. I'll be 73 in a couple months and did 4 years (67-71)as a Navy Radioman. Thanks for your service. P.S. I had to take my heel shifter off. Too many years without one.
That's great Harry! I'll be 72 next birthday and I too was Navy 67-71. I did bootcamp in Great Lakes, then back to Great Lakes for BE&E school, then to Bainbridge, MD for RM A school. Take care and ride safe shipmate!
When I bought my TriGlide on Oct. 31 2019 I hadn't been on a motorcycle since 1988, so I had nothing to get used to and I took to the TriGlide like a fish to water with no problems what so ever.
Experienced riders’ advice! All points are excellent that you made. Especially about the deer and about riding your own ride. Hope younger folks take that into account when they ride. I have a 2020 Triglide River rock gray the same as yours. It is my first tri glide. I’m 65 years old. Wish I would’ve bought one when I was 50. I think the Ed means education right! Anyway thanks for doing the video you did an excellent job.
I sure appreciate you kind remarks. This is my first Tri-Glide/Trike also. I'm like you windsurfed1 wish I would have done it about 2-3 years ago. Ride safe young man, but, have fun :-)
Nice video Ed. You tell the people the truth about trikes. I bought a 2020 Tri Glide and have added foam grips due to my arthritis. My hands hurt so bad at night I couldn't sleep and these grips made all the difference. I also added the luggage rack and I changed the rear shocks to a progressive set. WOW what a difference, she rides like a car now. You talked about the steering of a trike and yes it takes a bit of getting use to, but after a week or so my friend tells me I corner better on the trike than I did on my Heritage. I find myself doing like you said, I'm pushing on the opposite side of the handle bar instead of pulling. It seems easier to push than to pull. You said twist your body, maybe that's what I'm doing, I don't know, but it works. I feel a lot safer on the trike because gravel. grooved pavement, wet road, or even tar stripes (I call them tar snakes) doesn't bother the trike like they do a two wheeled bike. My wife and I have rode well over 300,000 miles since the early 90's on two wheelers and now over 19,000 on a trike. I started riding in the early 60's but my wife hated motorcycle back then. It wasn't until I aged a bit and slowed down a LOT before she started riding with me. (we've been together since 1970) We will never ride anything but a HD trike from now on. We are from SE Ohio but we've traveled a lot in the beautiful state of Virginia. Ed, ride safe and enjoy every journey.
Thank you Gene and so glad your bride enjoy riding together. I’m retired but my bride is a young thing at only 63 so we haven’t ridden far...yet. Gene, have fun, ride safe. Ed
Ed, The reason we went to a trike is because my wife has battled cancer seven times. When the cancer went to her brain it caused her to have seizures. She was afraid if she had a seizure on my Heritage it might cause an accident hurting both of us and possibly others. On the trike I should be able to pull over and tend to her needs. Just thought I share why we bought our trike. After riding the trike for a while I don't think we will ever go back to two wheels.
Great video.I'm on Triglide #9.The latest being a 2020 CVO.My next and last one will be a 2023,120th anniversary model if there is one.Backrest on CVO is great,I am a solo rider.Similar age to yourself.
I traded my 2010 TriGlide ultra in on a 2020 TriGlide ultra. Love it. My wife has MS and the leaning causes her vertigo but that is not an issue with the three wheeler. We can still get out face in the wind. I had a stage 2 kit in the 103 on the 2010, and I am seriously considering the stage 2 kit in 114, just for increased performance.. great video...
Rode 2 wheels for years, always ride two up with the wife, about 4 years ago I found myself loosing my confidence and being able to hold the bike when stopped or parking. So then do you quit riding or maybe go to a trike. It took a good while to get used to the three wheel thing and the fact that I bought a "14 tri glide with the old air shocks, the we upgraded to a '19 tri glide with the new shocks, man what a difference! Now when we ride with our friends on the twisty roads we can leave them all behind.
Thank you brother and ride safe! I also subscribed to your channel. Good job on the Hooked cooler. I've never heard of them but that's another good thing about this TH-cam, even us older folk can learn some things :-)
@@TriGlideEd Yes they are great people. My dad was a retired Seabee as I am retired Army plus Federal Employee. Keep the videos coming I am working on one now
Very nice video sir. I currently have a 2019 CVO Road Glide and a 2021 CVO Ultra, but I am considering trading the Ultra for a CVO Tri Glide to take some of the stress off of riding at the age of 76.. I do love 2 wheels but I need to test ride a trike.. Thanks for the info and great video... Larry P.
I love your videos @tri-glide Ed. They make me want to join you...to ride the hills of Virginia and share a cup of coffee. Your videos have the charm and feeling of home accompanied with real life rider wisdom, maturity and knowledge. Keep up the great work my friend. God bless.
Thank you Coach Bob for your kind words. If you’re ever coming up this way just holler and we’ll ride these mountains. If I ever get to Florida I’m going to give you a shout for sure. Take care and ride safe young man.
Ed thanks for sharing your experience. We own the Harley cold weather gear. Short riding season in NE Canada so for us it was worth the investment. Ride safe!
Thank you RS Melvin. Yeah our riding season, for this old man, is usually around 8 months and then every now and then you get a warm day or so during those other 4 months to ride a little. Take care, have fun but ride safe.
Thank you for watching Joseph. Joseph I don’t know anything about the Goldwing trikes. If I ever see one and can talk with the rider I will surely try to get you some info.
Welcome Les! None of us have fender or tank bras. I do have on the bottom of my fenders HD Fender Scuff Guards. Here is the Part Number: 83976-10. And I just have them on my fender. I do plan on getting the other one for the space between bike and fender. Have fun but ride safe Les. Respectfully, Ed
I rode motorcycles for many years when I was young (2 wheelers). Then I gave them up for around 30 years to raise my family. Retired now without the strength to hold up all that weight I bought a 2021 Tri-Glide ultra and within the first week scraped the right fender while attempting to turn LEFT on a guardrail! You cannot ride a three wheeler like it has 2 wheels. Counter steering does not work with these machines and it is hard to change driving styles, it takes time. It is especially hard for those used to two wheels to learn and easier for new riders to learn as they don't have to UNLEARN past practice.
P.S. I should add now that I am used to this 3 wheeler I love it! Going to go cross country with my wife coast to coast this year! Those unretired people can eat their hearts out! LOL
I had all the extended warranty etc on my 2020, but decided to cancel. I financed the total amount but now if you can afford the extended warranty and all the other "stuffs" it would make your service visits a better experience for sure. But to me it is very pricy. This is just my opinion though. Take care and ride safe.
Hey Ed. good advice. I'm in my mid 50's all my life wanting to ride a Harley. I know it's a real personal choice, but I'm really diggin that Tri Glide. Do you think it's a better choice for someone new starting out at my age? Thanks.
Michael I think it’s a great choice! A lot of issue with 2 wheels that you will not have to think about. Mainly dropping the bike and GRAVELS. Gravels can hurt you bad but with the Tri-Glide it reduces your chance of injury tremendously. Of course you still have to be careful for sure. I think you will really feel more safe and comfortable. Michael, have fun, ride safe. Respectfully, Ed
I have the 2019 Tri-Glide Ultra, I added foot pegs off lower fairing to give me the options of where I put my feet. I put the 15" windshield vs the 10" that came with it.

I love my Road King, but want to add a tri-glide to the family so that I can take my wife riding. Now, she would ride with me on the old Road King but I wouldn't be able to enjoy that ride thinking of her safety. Godspeed
Old Bike New Man, a friend and I were talking yesterday about that very thing. If it was just me riding my Electra Glide and I wrecked, that's me. But if my wife was on the back, well that would be tough. True we can still be in an accident on the Tri-Glide but the chances are greatly reduced in my opinion. You take care and remember to have fun but ride safe. Respectfully, Ed

Do you recommend extended warranty I'm getting a new tri Glide
I had all the extended warranty etc on my 2020, but decided to cancel.
