    Default Hello all

    Hello my name is Sara and this is me and my new to me trike, I call her Black Betty. She is a 2007 Suzuki Boulevard C90 with a Lehman Jackal conversion. I purchased her pretty much so that my son would come riding with me as he refuses to get on my Kawasaki Vulcan. I think he is afraid I will drop him. I must say I've had this trike for a month now and I hate it so far. OK I don't hate it, I hate the way it handles the steering is so hard. I've been told she needs to be raked out so I found a rake kit and I will have that installed next month when I can actually purchase it. I really hope that will help.
    OK well enough blabbering, I hope you all have a wonderful day

    Welcome to TT, Sara.
    Please be patient and allow yourself to get the feel of your new trike, as it takes some minor mental & physical adjustments to get accustomed to riding on 3 vs 2.
    After the rake kit is installed, you'll appreciate the difference in handling.
    Best of luck to you & your new toy, going forward

    If you lend someone $20 and never see that person again, it was probably worth it.

    Hello from East Texas. Sara if you get the right rake deg. it will drive like power steering, give 500 mils after you get you rake and it will all come together for you, that's when the fun beguines you will love it. " trips" you will not get enough of them. you'll make a trike talk gathering and will be hooked for life.
    ride safe and enjoy Jr. said it

    I just wanted to thank you all for the welcome. I know I will like it better once I spend some more time and get the rake kit. I appreciate all the feedback.
