    Drew, it's too bad we live so far apart as I would gladly sell you the voyager trike kit off of my '99 and save you some coin. Have the bike for sale locally but most people aren't interested in the kit, just the bike. It didn't much matter to me if I rode with or without the kit. The better half won't ride without it so I would install it when she wanted to ride and then just leave it on till I got around to taking it off again. Of course soon after removing she would want to go again. Charlie

    I had a similar problem. Usually when I get a bug I can fix it but this one had me for a few days. Doesn't allow any updates to any software, defender, AVG, Spybot, none of them. Found this through numerous searches and it worked. I was able to do all my updates as soon as the program finished it's operation. Sorry I can't recall the name of the bug it found as I am not at home. Trojan Remover 6.7.5 http://www.simplysup.com/tremover/download.html free 30 day trial Icechip

    CJVenture, Have not ridden a standard trike so I cannot compare the difference in handling. The voyager does require a bit of steering effort in the corners. If you stick with the posted limit for the curve there is no problem. Not sure what you consider rough ground, low speed on a rough gravel road will cause some occilation in the front end, not enough to create any concern. If you concern is rough paved roads at highway speeds there is no problem. We have some of the worst roads in Canada. According to some of the information I read prior to getting mine owners were claiming they could corner faster than when on 2 wheels. I am able to keep up with those I ride with but we aren't racing in the twisties. I am changing to the smaller front tire and hoping that I can experience the same lighter front end that other have gotten on two wheels. If it wasn't for the option of riding on 2 wheels whenever I want I may have gone to the full trike. I believe there is a video on the voyager website that will show some of the handling characteristics. Charlie

    Charlie, have you considered the option of putting on a voyager trike kit. Then you retain the option of a two-wheeler when you are alone and a trike style for 2-up. I have this kit and like the option. Check out my gallery. www.mtcvoyager.com/ Another Charlie

    FYI the posted conversion is for CDN gallons. gallons to litres x4.5461 litres to gallons x.22 For US - 3.785 litres per gallon or 1 litre = .264 US gal

    I can't imagine that the additional weight is causing that big of a difference. When you say you added a bit more air to the shock, what is the pressure? You can run up to 57 PSI if my memory hasn't failed me. Charlie
