Sixth gear is worthless, gas mileage sucks

We just finished a 400+ day on our new trike. We are talking basically flat Texas coast. Sixth gear was worthless and trying to keep the cruise sit while in sixth was impossible. Gas mileage was never better than about 22. At 100 miles the low fuel light came on. I am talking to the dealer on M...onday. This is my fourth Harley but I couldn't recommend the trike.

Some Tips

While I agree with the complaints I read here, there are some ways to help with most of the problems. First, if you will never exceed 68 mph on the highway your fuel consumption will go down by about 15%. If you can resist "Jack-rabbit" starts and stops you'll notice a difference too. If t...his is not enough, the trunk can accomodate a one gallon gas can. Secondly, try riding with your feet on good foot pegs and let your right leg bend outward. This will lessen the heat felt.

I could not be happier with my trike

I have about 400 miles on my 2010 trike. Like others, I have been disappointed in the MPG. I'm hoping that will get better as the trike breaks-in more. The reverse has tripped but was a very easy fix. It is a very comfortable ride. Rides totally different from a two wheeler so take a class. Be...st thing I did and learned a lot. I can't wait to retire and spend more time on the road. Read Full Review

Problems Solved

All the problems I had with my 2010 Tri-Glide magically went away when I sold it and bought a 2012 Road King Classic.
Now I'm back to motorcycling again instead of just herding the thing down the road. Read Full Review

Front rim Size

I'm no expert, but I need to replace the front rim. Of course, I know the tire size and that I need dual disc, but can anyone tell me what rim size other than 16, I need to be looking for. A lot of sites are trying to tell me I need a 21. I'm not that stupid. Read Full Review
