Freewheeler

    Well, after all this time and searching, I finally found one
    I thought after phoning every bike shop in the Southern Hemiphere these past few months and getting bad news, my last desperate call was to Harley Davidson in Moree.
    What great service I had the pleasure of experiencing here, they did not have a Freewheeler in stock but they phoned me back and said they found one, only 2 left in Australia for 2022 apparently.

    I put my money down and now  I am waiting to pick it up in a few weeks

    I  ordered a few extras which may delay delivery, they will fit all the extras for me so I can ride away with the finished bike
    Extras are
    Fan assisted front oil cooler
    Rear cylinder cooling fan
    18" clear windscreen
    Sissy bar for pillion
    Tow hitch
    Looking forward to picking it up

    HaHa....good one guys

    I have never riden a trike either and I am certainly not a balding old lawer type and yes I would feel safer on two wheels just like I always have

    However, being retired now and suffer slighty from virtigo and still have the longing for the open road brings me here

    As a Satellite Technician I never had a fear of heights walking around on 2 and 3 story buildings, why I have slight virtigo now is beyond me, something to do with middle ear issues I am told

    This is my first Harley, a dream purchase really.

    My only worry is I don't roll it at my first roundabout........lol

    They are "different" to ride than a conventional bike but a bit of fun

    Sunny Coast HD have two second hand Tri Glides in stock with low klm.

    I did not want a used bike really. Tri Glides do run a little hotter with all that crap in the way of air flow, I have no use for listening to the stereo whilst riding
    With the ten grand I saved I put extra cooling fans on board, besides, I am so tight when I fart only dogs can hear it.
    Cheers Steve
