Blade76 congrats on the purchased. I guess you will just have to tough it out and do the break in while your wife mends. Good Luck Ted

Check this post from TrikeTalk ......

"Patty and I are traveling in central SC. It was HOT, but we stopped at Thunder Tower HD in Columbia today and they just recieved their first 2010 Tri Glide and it's the new Blue/Silver two tone.

Very sharp trike! I think the two tone really adds a lot to the already solid look.

The salesman said it's for display only and not for sale (yeah...right!). Call me a skeptic, but I figure they will lie about other things too. "

I think it will be a VERY SHARP TRIKE. Of course though there is nothing wrong with Red Hot Sun Glow.

I hope mine comes in tomorrow, it was invoiced on 7/27 and I have the VIN number. When they invoice them they are shipped and normally arrive pretty quickly after that. I told the guys to give me a call once it comes in so I can check it out and take some pictures. I've always had solid colors on my bikes so I decided I may as well go with the 2 tone to change it up a bit. I thought about the red which is a great color but I decided I didn't want to have 2 red bikes. If my present 06 wasn't red I'd have been all over the Red Hot Sunglow, its awesome when the sun hits it.

Portion from another prior post; "...just recieved their first 2010 Tri Glide and it's the new Blue/Silver two tone"...

That's the two tone special order we had in '07 for our Heritage Classic (silver pearl something)... Would have gotten that on our TriGlide but took the first color as didn't want to wait... Know we have picture of when the Softail was delivered in it's crate to Harley dealer...

Guess TriGlides are shipped differently - they didn't notify us as we would have been there to take pictures too... Will be interesting to see how your's is shipped...

Could you do somthing for us please...? Check on what the air pressure is in the tires on your shipped TriGlide...

Thanks and looking forward to seeing your pictures... Sure do love your Dad's...

Just think, he is even going to let me ride it once in awhile. I will be able to have my pick of the litter.
