Pull the pads and sand them with 80 or 100 grit sandpaper to remove the glaze. For the rotors use some 120 grit, put the bike in first and let it idle (of course this is while it's on jack stands with the rear wheels off) and sand both sides to remove the glaze. You can also bevel the lead and following edge of the friction material which may help reduce the squeal. Another thing is to use a little anti-squeal silicone between the pad and brake piston, you can get it at any auto parts store. All of this should cure it.

It's still on their web site. A nice looking trike. Take a look at the one George has for sale, it's a beauty. Here's a link to Georges RSV Hannigan. http://www.venturerider.org/classifieds/showproduct.php?product=3933&title=2001-rsv-hannigan-trike&cat=4

He must be safe, he was gonna put her in the other bed. Besides, what harm can an old man do ?

In the strict sense of sober no, an occasional drink every so often. No drugs since the 70's. Those were fun times I don't care to repeat. I do fully support anyone who can lead a clean and sober lifestyle.

No squeal from them yet, don't expect them too. When was your trike built? There were only about 30 trikes affected and they were built within about a 45 day window form 12/09 to 01/10 You might try a different pad compound. Talk with your local Ducati dealer, those rear pads fit several Ducati models and are available in a few different pad materials from EBC and others. The original pads are brembo. I recall the EBC pads as being FA47. Be sure to lightly sand the rotors to remove any glazing when switching pads.

:doh:My garage is 30x48 and I don't have that much clear floor space

They are from Hannigan. I had one of the trikes built between Dec 09 and Jan 10 that were shipped with the wrong pads which caused excessive wear on the rotors. The original rotors were cast but pads for stainless rotors were used causing deep scoring of the rotors. Hannigan replaced them under warranty with the setup both Jeff and I have now. This just goes to show what kind of customer support and care you get when you buy a Hannigan. I'm the second owner of this trike and the original owner wasn't aware of the factory mis-matched parts.

I agree, the 4.0 had great torque and longevity. The jury is still out on the 3.7L

I have an 09 Liberty. Used to have an 81 CJ 5 with 12" lift and 38" Ground Hawgs

I got some years back, but, since then I have discovered that it didn't work well so I returned it. Common sense would tell you that there's got to be some somewhere, if you do run across some, please tell me where so I can get some that works.
-
Yep, works like a charm don't it

The only problem I see in this game is that all the southerners have a much longer riding season than us northerners do . Maybe we should have made it East and West teams, that would even out the weather variable some.

Looking good. According to Hannigan, The brake knuckles are 84-87 Honda CRX so rotors, calipers & bracket should all work. You may have a hard time finding parts that old, most of that vintage stuff was crushed during the Cash for Cars fiasco Your best bet will be to have the scrap yard run a locator on what you need.
-
Well ya may as well put me in the southern team. If'n I'm gonna play, I may as well make it interesting

Could be dirty injectors, low fuel pressure, pressure bleed off while sitting, catalytic converter. Pumping the pedal doesn't do anything, there is no accelerator pump in a fuel injection system (even a TPI).
-
Sounds like a good time was had by all I want to thank Lewis for checking out the headset and also a BIG thank You to Randy, because without your help in checking out the trike for me last fall we would have missed a great deal on an awesome bike that my wife, Jeannie absolutely loves. She's excitedly waiting on that new headset now so she can listen to her new MP3 player.

You're IN trouble, already you can't follow the rules You need to pick a team !
-
And you guy's riding those antiques need every penny you got to keep em running.

I got lucky I only spent $20

Hey Bob, How's the project coming along ?

On my trip to Montana, going over Beartooth, 2 up, pulling a trailer, I had no issues with power loss at all. The bike ran great up there. MPG may have suffered a bit but some of that was the head wind on 4 of the six times we went over the top.
-
I need one of those, that deer i hit in montana twisted mine all up. I'm in.

How about some pic of your bike with the bedliner paint. Must be pretty easy to keep clean eh?
