If we were to go back 53 years at what I and 48 years what wife joined me in spending on bikes. The number would be staggering and take a long spread sheet.
That said we followed a program that never but the family at financial risk. Some go on ocean cruises, some fly all over the world. We chose to ride.
That is very cool! 👍
A friend and his wife have the goal to see every National Park in the U.S.. Along the way they visit cool state and local parks/attractions. They figure it will take a life time of adventure to try and complete the goal.

Took the Black one out today for a quick test ride. I had only rode it 1 mile until today. It runs good. I am leaving the engine stock for now.
Installed The WHIM from the wrecked blue RGL on the Tug also . Once installed it has to be enabled in the bikes system. Lucky I have the Centurion that allows me to do it. Also enable the blue tooth phone setting. Something I may never use. Just not into using the phone while riding.
The Centurion gives me the ability to do much of what HD can do.
That's cool. The whole "Right to Repair" thing makes software like the Centurion very valuable. 👍
I'm with you. Prefer not to have phone conversations while riding. The Zumo XT GPS shows text messages, and I need to figure out how to shut it off.
I'm not important enough that any message coming in can't wait for gas/food/rest stop. Life of a minion is a good thing. 😎

@scott-h I agree for sure. I can't help thinking that some riders are turning into car drivers with all the distractions on their handlebars etc. I have a Samsung A7 Lite tablet for a GPS and a couple of earbuds for directions and that's it; phone stays in my top box.

You would not believe how many times I have been told "only HD dealer can do that." The centurion can direct tune and do a lot more than what I venture into.
Designed to be an IDNY shop tool and a DYNO tuning device it really does a lot
The Tug to put sidecar back on is coming along great. I did not want to mess around with sanding and paint the out Faring right now.
Ordered an after market replacement painted factory color. It arrived yesterday. Ordered from Hogwokz.
The 2020RGL was a used bike purchase. So far fixed a minor Connection issue with front turn signal. Selling dealer is shipping me a new head light. That was defective. Some labor cleaning up the black paint. 2 year full warranty on it. I think it will work out well.
Looks like a mirror! Beautiful finish. 👍

Frankly, You may call yourself lucky. Alive and counting bruises is in such a case a very good thing*. Material damage is just that: Material.
The other Part: Suing and lawyers are the reason why your country is in such a sad state. Proportionality, reason-ability and common sense were abducted now some 40 years ago or more by these robbers in suit. (at least from the view as a European foreigner.)
I hope that thump heals fast without remaining damage.
Good luck with the repairs and remember every new day is a present. Start to worry the day you wake up and nothing aches!

*(Just yesterday I paid a medical bill for an antibiotic resistant infection transmitted by a simple tick bite earlier in the year in Illinois. One of the doctors freaked out the moment she realised that the infection was antibiotic resistant and kicked me out of her office ASAP. Myself in 2000 I had a really close call and was about to hand my spoon to Saint Peter because of something similar.)
Stripped Trike kit off the wreck Bike. Need to strap it down and put body back on and it is ready for a road trip to Hannigan.
Pretty cool engineering. 👍

There is quite some work in this contraption. A former neighbour did a much easier job on his 2 to 3 wheel conversion. Good to see that it will live further on in a new bike.

Hannigan has two different versions on the floor of their showroom. Both are...elegant solutions.
Illegitemi non carborundum est!
FLH and Transformer. Either can be had with running boards. The Transformer has some other options like ground effects .
Same running gear on both.
