  2. Hi Jonesy..Names Carl..I have a t/w kit and was wondering if anyone has come up with a side cover plate set up for the void area between kit and bike? THANKS FOR ANY INFO. CARL...
  3. Hi...I'm thinking about de-triking my rsv and am wondering how the rake will act on 2 wheels???...Has anyone raked out but not triked their rsv and is there any safety issues??...THANKS CARL.....
  4. Yes I just bought a case of FW on base and got a doz 6/6 blue and white micro cleaning rags for $120.00..I have used it before and seems to work very well........Carl:thumbsup2:
  5. Sorry Travelin Man..there is nothing that can be done about the riser's other than have a set machined special which i did for the stratoliner i had..GOOD LUCK...
  6. Wally might I suggest the (AMSOIL) oil removal kit...just for times like this..price is about 12-15 $...Carl:080402gudl_prv:

  8. you will lessen your total distance of travel...went thru this with trike kit...had to lower rear end and raise front to level the tank back up...the gas wouldn't pass over other wise...this may not be of concern....Carl
  9. Thanks Terry....they look workable...I've got a welder..will when I pull the body off soon...Carl
  10. HELP HELP I have a tri-wing trike kit and am having rear end problems..figure it would be cheaper to buy a rebuild than to have this one rebuilt...been on the web looking for one but no luck.....is there any out there anywhere???..Thank You for any advise...
  11. No not the left grip but I have went through 3 throttle grips due to the cable attachment tips breaking off in 2 months. Not a tension problem--- IMHO--- POOR QUALITY ITEM. I called Kuryakyn and they are warrantied..GOOD LUCK...
  12. I have a 09 rsv and had a set of risers and lowering kit installed....but due to being a (Senior)(66) I've went with a trike kit....can't use either now...the risers...no cable change..the lowering kit is about 1-1 1/2"...have Bubs on and no drag problem..e-mail me we can talk...long_black_train@cableone.net......Carl:farmer:
  13. Thanks GunnyButch for the price list....will have to get some of the "moth ball money out":doh:...oh well you can't go without it...but you can't take it with you......Carl
  14. Thanks "footsiebike and camos" your answers were pretty much what I was thinking...I have heard about a narrow auto tire that is supposed to work good but not seen it yet...will look some more...Carl....
  15. Hello BikeDaft2...I haven't got the parts your looking for..but I have all the parts from my trikeout...if you or any of the forum members know of anyone that needs these parts for a rebuild there for sale.......Carl...........
  16. I just triked mine..I wonder how this tire would work with a 5% rake on the front????Has any trikers tried it yet...Have been told the front tire wears a lot more on the sidewall when you trike it out????????????....Thanks...Carl...
  17. Yup...those are what I'm looking for...I have looked on the Hannagan web site but all they list is with the kit only...not individual..but have a dealer a few miles away..I'll call them and check there..Thanks a Lot......Carl:fingers-crossed-emo
  18. Where can I get the Hannagan ground affect running boards?...Have checked with Hannagan site but there is no listings for them...HELP!!!!!!PLEASE......
  19. I had a vibration in my 09 RSV at about 500m..took it to dealer and he found the head space bearing a little loose...tightened it and all is well now...9800m..I noticed it at highway speeds in cruise and a little more noticeable on de-exceleration...Hope this might add to help find the soluation...Carl....Take Care...
  20. Reaney..I looked for over a year for the same thing....Everyone here is quite right....Tri-Wing and Voyager is all there is at this time...I talked to C S C and MotorTrike and they both told me (maybe) next year.....but as i told CSC (maybe) doesn't help us now......On the Tri-Wing I've learned there is a little custom fitment to be done on the upper opening and trunk lid...Good Luck with yours...Carl
  21. Hi all...just reading a few past info's...thought I might toss this in the hat..there is a torque grease called "NEVER SEIGE" civilian term or "ANTI-SEIGE" military term...can pick it up in the "GRAY" mix at wally world...holds the torque applied on a bolt-nut nearly for ever..the composition is not the same a lot-tite...the military uses it on everything that can come loose...I used it for 20 yrs while I was in and ever sinse...4 yammers.650-1100-1900-RSV now..no problems at all...Carl:thumbsup2:
  22. Hello Winesap7...My fiberglass man and I are mulling an idea of making wind deflectors to mount on the front of the trike body so the wind will be deflected outward instead of a blunt face catching the wind...He has 30+ yrs with glass and seems to think it will work..and give the body a more sweeping design...I have the design drawn...now it's his turn to put it in practability with glass...Have a Good Day:rudolf:
  23. what is ballpark price for getting the flywheel balanced and how much of the pumkin pinion would have to be balanced? Thank You
  24. Mr. Andrews Tri-Wing can rake your triple tree...5 degrees...long_black_train
  25. Hi Carbon One...I've just bought a Tri-Wing kit...awaiting shipment...One (MAJOR) concern I have is POWER TO WEIGHT RATIO...Is there any news floating out there as how to pump the power up a bit???...and will the REVERSE project I've read about here on the forum work???...Thank You....long_black_train
