I've moved over to the dark side....

Well, just a little...

2015 Harley Freewheeler in Superior Blue. What a blast to ride, and no sore butt! I spent most of this past Sunday riding the backroads of Wisconsin.

No actual Honda's were killed or injured during the filming of this shoot...

Hmmm....3 wheels, is that like getting a ranch house planning for the future?
Also, is something like that hand made custom one-off, or made by a company with others like it?

That's Harley's new three wheeler, right? Looks so much better. How does it do it the curves?

Factory made by Harley. And no, you don't have to be a geezer or incapacitated to enjoy it!

Yes, and I'll let you know about handling the curves when I get to some. (My area of Illinois is pretty flat & straight ).

Congrats, nice looking ride. Love that blue color.

Someone on the forum asked "Why did he do that?" and all the other members replied in unison, "Damned if I know!"

Good on you, mate. Great looking bike. Look forward to more reports about it.

I want to know if it can do a wheelie and I really hope to see this with a wheelie bar even if it can't.

+1 It's very close to Honda's Tahitian Blue on my '93 CB750. I parked at a store on the 750 last week and a Harley in that blue color pulled in right next to me. While both bikes were radically different, we were able to agree that they were definitely the right color

I have to ask...no slur intended...are you in some way not able to ride a 2 wheeler?

No John, fully able, and still do, ride two wheelers. This is just a completely different level of fun.

Different experience riding a 3 wheeler. Different experiences can be fun. Good luck with the new ride. It's a dandy.

 

[ClassicVW_imp]

Congrats and enjoy and ride safe! I just saw a Harkey dresser in that color a few hours ago and I was mesmerized by the beautiful color.

I see a lot of the those Harley three-wheelers in my neighborhood. A bunch of hooligans if you ask me. I was so tired of them racing down my street that I took a photo of them to give to our local PD.



Amazingly, no arrests have been made. I think the cops are in cahoots with them.

It actually looks like it would be a lot of fun to ride. Even though images of big wheels and tractors spring to mind whenever I see one, I admit, yours is really pretty. Congrats! Looking forward to the ride report!

 

[Rick Froscheiser_imp]

Congrats! Very nice looking. Looking forward for ride repot. I have never ridden a Harley trike. I did ride the neighbors Spider and that was a strange feeling.
Ride safe my friend

There's a company doing a 3-wheel conversion for Goldwings, which is hardly new. But what interests me is they put two wheels on the front, with a leaning suspension. Even more interesting is that HD filed patents for what amounted to their own version on the Can Am Spyder about 12 years ago. But theirs was even better IMO, because it too had a fully articulated, leaning suspension. I wish they'd built it.
