Overview

Harley-Davidson’s 2024 trike lineup features three ways (appropriately) to add a third wheel: There’s a cruiser, a bagger, and a full-dress tourer. The Freewheeler is the cruiser of the family, highlighted by stripped-back styling elements like bobtail rear fenders, a round headlight, blacked-out finishes, and slash-cut exhausts. Even though it’s the most affordable three-wheeler in the lineup, bare bones it is not: with Harley’s Milwaukee-Eight 114 engine, a host of rider aids, and a reverse gear, the Freewheeler capitalizes on modern technology and performance while bringing the classic Harley experience to the three-wheeled crowd. In fact, even in trike form, we think it has one of the most tried-and-true silhouettes in the entire H-D lineup.

The Freewheeler is available in three colors, all of which feature blacked-out finishes.

Fine to me /if we was looking for the provision for the wife as well. Id make it the green one.👍🏽

just that the wheels could be be more “flashy/standout? also that seat unit looks terrible, uncomfortable and the tank looks too small especially with that crap attached to it.

Everytime I see a trike I just wonder why they don't just drop the windows and sunroof of their car and retain all the benefits of a car considering they choosing all the restrictions of a car whilst also sacrificing all the benefits of a bike apart feeling the wind.

Agree but looking at a wider picture especially when your put in the scene, if the rider or pillion has injury or disability but still would like to ride in some form, it’s a half way house.
one for the books statically they’d be less accidents, and possibly less speeding???🤫
