Thanks RDawson. Im not sure what Im looking for, but Ill see what I can figure out.

2007 Midnight Venture. After an extensive search on the forum, I did not find any posts about a transmission doing nothing when shifted into gear. When I shift mine into all of the gears I get no reaction. Has anyone ever heard of this before? Thanks in advance.

Thanks Marcarl

Sorry, this is a 2007 Midnight Venture.

While riding up a hill in 5th gear doing approx. 70 mph I heard what sounded like an engine backfire pop then lost all transmission power. Engine whined and I limped to the shoulder. I had no gears to hold from rolling back downhill. Clutch lever seems to operate properly, and the shift lever seems to operate properly as well. I trailered it to my destination and hours later had just enough trans power to limp into another trailer. Now at home, after several days I tried it again and with the clutch pulled in and trying to start in gear the bike tries to roll forward. When I shift from neutral to 1st I heard a grinding noise and then back to nothing again. I am nowhere near as mechanically talented as the majority of you are. Any help will be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

I am in need of the left side (kickstand) lower wind deflector with bracket. I would appreciate it if anyone can tell me where to find one. Thanks Mongo

Freebird, All is well on the Mongo front. Still riding my Midnight Venture Trike and loving the info I pull from the forum. Semper Fi Mongo

Thanks for the reply. I found the issue to be the trailer connection wiring to be grounding out. Once I separated them all better that resolved the problem. Now I find that the small blue relay under the left lower fairing, which apparently works the brake lights is malfunctioning. It clicks every time I squeeze the brake lever and some auxilary lights go out. THat is weird. Any suggestions? I figure that relay must be bad.

Hello All, I've got a head scratcher and am hoping ya'll can point me in the right direction. I am working on my 2007 RSMV that has a Hannigan Trike kit on it. I had the left front turn signal bulb not working so I replaced it and it works. Now I noticed that when I put on my hazards, nothing changes. All running lights are illuminated, but not flashing. When I put on my left turn signal, the front turn signal blinks, the rear signal blinks and the auxiliary brake light flashes as well as the two auxiliary strip lights on the trunk flash. When I put on the right turn signal the front signal does not flash, but everything else in the rear is blinking in addition to a couple of front facing running lights I mounted in the trike frame. When I apply the front brake I hear a loud click coming from the lower left fairing. The brake lights work except for the auxiliary strip I added and the auxiliary running lights that go out. I checked the wiring connections in the rear and have not found any issues. I did order and apply another hazard relay next to the coolant reservoir under the right side cover with no change. It clicks just like the old one did. With it came a smaller relay that I think goes under the front fairing, but I have not cracked the fairing to apply it until I rule out some other potential problems. Any recommendations would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

The new bars went on much easier than expected. I rerouted the throttle cables under the triple tree. I was told i would have to reroute the clutch line, but it worked just fine without doing so. THe brake line was a little tight, but once adjusted into position, it worked fine. I really like the additional height and width these bars provide. I will have to see when I ride, but my hands are definitely above and outside of the fairing. Thanks to BK for the info on changing them out. I took pictures, but can't get them to load for some reason. The pics posted below by Condor look much like mine except mine are chrome.

I put the 1 1/2" risers on my RSV trike and liked the improvement, but it just wasn't enough. I ran into another large RSV rider and he put 10" bagger bars on his RSV. I sat on his bike and loved the width and height of the bars. He said he maintained the stock wires and cables by rerouting them around the triple tree. I ordered and received the bars from Amazon and plan to do the install this weekend. More to come.....

How much rise do the flanders bars provide? Did you need to extend the control wires and hoses? Do you have a pic? Thanks

Has anyone put 3.5" or larger risers on a 2nd Gen RSV? The 1 1/2" risers just aren't doing it for me. I am not sure how my plan wll work, but I am considering adding some 3.5" or 4.5" risers turned up toward the dash. I know I will need to replace my hoses and wires. Does anyone have a suggestion on where to find the extended wires and hoses? I am 6'5" and want my arms more level instead of going so far down to the grips. I had planned on keeping the stock bars. Thanks in advance for any and all info.
