  1. I have installed a Tow Pak trike kit on my "99" RSV and have momentary steering "shakes", usually when not missing a bump in the road, and am wondering if one of those rake kits would help reduce this. I have read that Harrigan makes a kit for their conversions but don't know if they would work with a Tow Pak. Does anyone know of any other suppliers of rake kits if the Harrigan kit doesn't work? Does any one have any good or bad experiences with rake kits?
  2. Thanks, Dan and Brian. I checked and do have a good ground. I have not installed a converter/ isolator. I do have a combination of both LED and incandescent lights on my motorcycle and on my trailer. I am considering changing my complete harness to a 5 wire so that I can use my LED, universal light bars' brake light, that I installed on my trailer, and got from signaldynamics.com, along with the standard incandescent tail, turn, brake, and marker lights that came with the harbor freight trailer. Do you think that will do the trick without the motoleather.com universal isolator harness? Thanks again. /Charlie (old salt)
  3. OK fellow riders and electrical experts, I've got a good one for you to solve. I've read the prior posts and still don't have a difinitive answer about the isolators (or whatever is needed) for the trailer wiring. I have a harbor freight trailer which I assembled and installed the provided lights with the flat 4 wire harness. I had my pu truck parked next to my work area so plugged into it to test the lights and all lights (directional, brake, and running) worked great. I then proceded to hook up my connector harness to my 99 VR as DaveDanger did and when done checked it out with my tester and all was fine. I then plugged my trailer into my bike (here is where it goes downhill). My left tail light comes on bright, ALL other lights on very dim, when I turn on either directional, all lights dimly flicker on and off. All of my bikes lights are on and working normally. WHAT DID I DO WRONG? What do I have to do to correct the problem? I guess I could pull the trailer behind my pick up but thats no fun. I know you guys have the answer, you have helped me and a lot of others in the past. Thank you!!!
  4. Don, please sign me up for one Guardian bell. I put postal money order in mail to you today. I know I can't give it to myself but if my wife gave me the money for it does that mean she is giving me the bell???:confused24: Thanks for your time and efforts fo having these made up, they will be very special and unique. Thanks again, Charlie
  5. Can you post a picture or tell me where to look if already posted? Thanks:confused24: I think I might want one if it is what I think it is. Old salt
