| I purchased the FLHTCUTG in late March of 09. I currently have 2,000 miles on the TG and have enjoyed every mile. The TG is a well engineered and offers a stable platform for long runs. I recently road the bike in heavy wind conditions on a 500 mile round trip and was able to keep up with the rest of the pack of two wheelers as we cruised at 75 and 80 in the Southern California mountains on our way to the Yuma Prison Run. The 103 CI V Twin coupled with the 6 speed transmission provides a quick throttle response for the rider. The engineering efforts that went into frame design especially the angle of neck rake mated with a steering dampener render the bike agile and quick to respond to the riders commands. The ease of access and ability to adjust the rear suspension removes any hard suspension conditions no matter what the weight load is. I have read other reviewers comments which have stated that Tri Glides are and old mans bike or a woman’s bike. I have been ridding for over 45 years all of which has been on one model of a Harley or another. My current daily driver is a 2003 DEUCE! I ride every day no matter what the weather conditions are. This year I will have put over 2 million miles on various Harley models and consider myself as and old saddle tramp and non weekend warrior to be well qualified to make comment on the Tri Glide or any other Harley Model. I have had exceptional service from PROGRESSIVE INSURANCE for all my motorcycle needs. They have been quick to respond to all my questions and have provided superior service during the claim process. |
