The Harley-Davidson® Trike platform brings original-equipment design, quality and service to the three-wheel motorcycle segment. Trike models utilize a frame and associated chassis structure and geometry engineered specifically to handle the loads generated by the steering forces and weight of a three-wheel vehicle.
FLSTFB Fat Boy® Lo
2010 Harley-Davidson FLSTFB Fat Boy® Lo
Darker and lower, the Fat Boy® Lo retains the bold presence of the Fat Boy® while offering a fresh interpretation of the motorcycle that still defines the segment. A re-shaped seat and lowered suspension combine to produce the lowest seat height of any Harley-Davidson® model, just 24.25 inches.
The Softail® rear suspension mimics the clean lines of a vintage hardtail frame but offers the comfort of a modern suspension that is hidden under the chassis. The rigid powertrain allows tight packaging of the engine and frame and creates a solid connection between the rider and the power that moves the motorcycle.
FLSTSE CVO™ Softail® Convertible
2010 Harley-Davidson FLSTSE CVO™ Softail® Convertible
The Harley-Davidson® CVO™ Softail® Convertible is a limited-production custom motorcycle that can be configured for all-day touring, two-up cruising or solo profiling by adding or detaching key components, which can be easily removed or installed without tools.

FLTRX Road Glide® Custom
2010 Harley-Davidson FLTRX Road Glide® Custom
The Road Glide® Custom is a tougher, lower vision of the shark-nose Harley-Davidson classic, with a big 18-inch front wheel, a 2-into-1 exhaust, and a smooth tail light assembly. This bagger rolls with new swagger.
The innovative Harley-Davidson® Touring chassis is based on a single-spar, rigid backbone frame and a stout swingarm developed to withstand the demands of long-haul touring riders and today's more-powerful engines.
FXDFSE2 CVO™ Fat Bob®
2010 Harley-Davidson FXDFSE2 CVO™ Fat Bob®
The Harley-Davidson® CVO™ Fat Bob® is a limited-production custom motorcycle that projects an agressive, super-duty presence behind a beefy front wheel, twisted Tommy Gun exhaust, bold paint and innovative custom styling.
The CVO Fat Bob is based on the Harley-Davidson Dyna platform, which pairs Big Twin performance with an extended FX front end, exposed twin rear shock absorbers, and an under-seat battery box.
FXDWG Dyna® Wide Glide®
2010 Harley-Davidson FXDWG Dyna® Wide Glide®
The new Wide Glide® is a Dyna® Big Twin done up old-school chopper style - a low, stretched-out custom with drag bars and forward foot controls that give its rider a real fists-in-the-wind profile. The LED stop/turn/tail light combo and side-mounted license plate keep the chopped rear fender clean.
The Harley-Davidson Dyna family has its roots in the factory-custom revolution of the 1970s, and combines Big Twin performance with an extended FX front end. Dyna models deliver great handling and bold styling.

I see all these guys on here talking and not knowing any thing.I got hom e from nan in 74 it was snowing in Minnesota may be a foot on the ground my father picked me up at the airport.we ate had a few beer and went to sleep.when I woke and we were haveing coffe he ask what I wanted to do and I told him I wanted to hit the harley shop.So we drove over and the guy was all excited because it was winter (no sales in winter in Minnesota) so I looked at em all for a hour my dad just sitting on the stool watching me the guy walks up say you see anything I said ya I will give you 6000 for the black one you have a tag on for 6.500 he said I dont know I quickly said cash he said deal.Then said he would put it in the back for me till spring told the guy I have not been on a bike for 3 years and if he could get it ready to day I would be back after lunch for it ok he says. When we get back he say changed your mind I said no why he says wheres your trailer I said for what he laughed so when I told the guy I was rideing it home going to spend the night with my dad and tomorrow I was leaveing for Califorina on the bike the guy laughed again and then my dad says he is and he will make it then the guy starts giveing me choppers and scarvs choppers are leather mits people in Minnesota wear to keep your hand warm. Any way I left the next day road in the cold and snow till I hit Denver and then it started getting warm and I started taking things off and road all the way to Califorina road out there 3 months and just road all over the states sleeping on the side of the road fishing and swimming a lot and lost of partys with other bikers I would meet up with stayed at there houses for free as long as I wanted worked on my bike and then took of again been doing this ever since and it was great till the baby boomers started buying bikes then the bikes started going up a 1000 to 2000 a year then all this high dollar shirts and jackes and crap you can get lots of places cheeper but the boomer had money and harley wanted it so now a 600 pound pice of steel that all most any one could buy is now out of there reach.the boomers did this for us regular guys then harley davidson finachel came along and did and is still doing what the house market and CEOs and the bankers were all doing you know the things that have runned the united states and the rest of the world for that matter. so you see its all Harley fault they have doug the hole. I can work on my bike and build it over and over top to bottem and all the people I know can do this a biker is not abought how moch my bike cost s a biker is a bough being free and as I see it none of you on these post are even close I guess the rest of you will have high dollar bikes sitting in your gerages with no one to work on em and no one to buy them eather
Baby boomers
Dan,I beg to differ with you.The baby boomers did not screw up the Moco,the unions did.I am not a boomer (54),and I have an expensive bike in my garage,only in winter if its not in Fla. and I can peel that bike like a bannana.Take apart any part and repair rebuild replace any thing on it Again I must say I blame the unions.
Need you to design me a new special edition for a movie star...
He's veeerry particular. And verrrry Special.
boomers
Hello, Fred you are a BOOMER if you were born 1946-1966...I think that it includes yourself...or almost does. Anyway Harley just jacked up the rates like any other company but as Dan says they saw a bunch of people that had some disposable income and the price shot up for everyone.The richer folk that are for the most part(POSERS) screwed it up for the "normal folk", market forces I guess they call it.Big banks in the USA are scruuuuwwed .The unions may have added a bit to the price but not a lot compared to the greedy corporate . Watch for Chinese chop choppers comin' yer way. Ride on brothers!!!!!
