Is there something special about the 2019's that's not available on the 2018's? (Did they fix the sumping issue yet?)
Yes...On the specials anyway......Now come with the 114 motor and new boom box GTS infotainment system

What did they do to fix the "sumping issues"? Any documentation?

How many 2019 have been on the road long enough to know for sure the problem is truly behind us?

What about the tranny fluid getting into the primary, that verified as fixed to?

If so, maybe I'd be interested in a new bike until then I sitting it out.

Watch it:

1 - the fanbois will say that you are me, dual accounts

2 - you'll be told those things don't exists anyway

3 - you'll be told you're not allowed to talk about them unless you have a HD, specifically an M8.

(But, yeah, I'm on the same page as you, for sure - if the 2019 Tri-Glide is those two flaws free then I'm on one)

Yeah, you shook the bee hive now........!!!

But I feel the same way about the M8s..... Fix the damn engine, and I MAY think about it...

I'm pretty much partly half-way maybe decided (LOL).

If they fix those faults in the '19 then I'll get a '19 Tri-Glide when I get back to Oz - tooling around Oz on a thumping 1800 cc engined trike = mint!
If they haven't then I'll order a custom built fuel injected Ford 2L engined trike (about 200HP in a 1/2 ton trike = 400HP per ton, **** hot!)

We have a dealership in Olathe, Ks that has “dealer suggested retail price” and they start at $5000 to $6000 over list on most bikes and $12000 over list on CVO’s. They have “fitters” then “sales guys” then “sales managers”

Do they actually sell any bikes at those prices .....?

Or is it just a ploy to eventually get to MSRP, and have the customer think they got a deal.....?

yep...just a game they play to get you to think you got a deal. Although many have succumbed to the pitch and paid WAY to much!

I wouldn't even step foot in a "Stealership" who operated under such an outrageous business model.

Of course you could also let them go first and ask $12k over on the new CVO and then demand $13k over on your trade......seems fair right? LOL.
