    Default Manuals and Parts Lists

    I'm selling my Motor Trike converted Vulcan Voyager because I cannot get a manual or a parts list because I'm not a vendor. That means that I will not be able to perform my own service and repairs. I will be at the mercy of a dealer and the manufacturer. I'm planning on buying a HD with a different conversion on it. If I need to I can take it to a HD dealer that deals with whatever kit is on it but still I would like to be able to work on it myself. Can anybody tell me what kits I will be able to get parts for easily and a manual for it?

    A used HD TRI-Glide would be the best for what you are looking for. Everything else you are dealing with 2 companies.

    Trike manufacturers are taking examples from Harley-Davidson and are tightening up their parts and service manuals and procedures to protect their own proprietary construction and their dealer network.

    Not to say that you are incapable, but flawed repairs by trike owners that sell their trikes to an unwitting buyer later on, is a major reason for this protection tactic. I sell specific parts for the trikes I represent and install with a guarantee and tutelage.

    To do otherwise is bad for the product name, creates a potential liability for the manufacturer in the future, bad for the product value and bad for the trike business in the future.

    We all love our trikes, but not all of us should be doing mechanical work on them too.

    You have a Ford 7.5 or 8.8 rear axle that is modified to fit your shaft drive trike. It has Mustang drum brakes on it. Any parts supply shop can get you shoes and other Ford rear drum brake parts. I'm at 70k on the brakes and they are not even half worn down.

    The pumpkin is most likey packed full of high temps bearing grease. ( My Harley Trog kit axle is) You won't need to worry about it. Again, Im at 70k on my Trike and the grease is good.

    Beyond that there are heim joint connectors for adjusting the alignment.

    I replaced mine at 50k. Bought them from McMaster Carr online.

    Not much to mamaintenance on the rear axle.

    Thanks Jim. That all makes sense and I can see their point. However, PM can save everyone a lot of trouble and down time. I.have since picked up some info on things to check, when to check them and torque specs. This info could have saved the company some money and me a big headache. I will say they stand behind their warranty and are great to deal with. External torqued and visual checks should help me out a lot. Teardown I can leave for the techs.

    Thanks FLTR2008TRIKE. That's great info but I don't have a Trog kit. Mine is the Challenger with IRS and it's belt driven like yours. I have received info that the half shafts and boots are from VW/Porche. The bolt pattern for the rear wheels is for a Ford. Now to find out about the brakes. In due time someone will report on them. Maybe I should try WikiLeaks! LOL!
