Yes, it still stock
It steer hard in fast curves, woobles around 25 if you let go and bumpsteers badly. I can't afford trees now and would like suggestions to get around that. what trees did you get?

I Too have the raked front end on my R S, I jacked up the pressure in the front to 40 psi. That helped, but I still have some wobble, a Dampner would help. No one makes one for our bike, I have tried to make brackets and use a universal Dampner, I just can't get it to fit,, I gave up..

I went with VTXtreme trees ($750) - 3 guys (brothers?) make trees for Hondas - Yamahas - Harleys and possibly others (not sure). they make steering really easy (maybe too easy) the trike tends to try to wonder if the road surface isn't flat and level - not real bad but steady steering would be nice.

Steering dampers restrict the steering too much and can be dangerous (know of 1 guy that died because of the damper not letting him turn quick enough and restricted the amt of turn) he went off road and hit a tree.
Looking to trike my 07 yamaha 650 custom vstar any suggestions I am on long Island

My 06 Venture Midnight with a Hannigan conversion. Bought it three months ago--I love it. It has LA Choppers exhaust pipes--loud.
Here's a few.
I had Baron's Nasty Boy 4-2-4 pipes on my RSTD. I'm not sure if they are going put them on my trike when they do the build. They were going to try to switch them to my RSV during the conversion. Guess I should follow up before they start...
The Nasty Boy were loud enough to let folks know you were there but not too loud for everyday use.
96 Yamaha Royal Star with Trike Mid-Step on.
This is my 01 RSV! It's not home yet (1-2 weeks) depending on weather and scheduling. She looks great! Can't wait!!!
