Bought this.
It's a 2008 Premium audio (whatever that means) with 34xxx miles. as you can see lots of extras. He's asking $19,900.
Can anyone identify the conversion from the pic?
Is it worth that?
He's willing to give me more than I paid for tweety, and the color matches my jeep, Kind of.
It looks like a Lehman Manarch. Good luck if you decide to purchase it.
Lehman. Very likely a solid axle conversion...Not saying that is all bad but most prefer the independent....
I wonder who "most" are and how it is known that they prefer the independent axle over the solid. The Lehman Monarch II is a well-built trike and very comfortable to ride.Originally Posted by flyswatter
We have one. We also have a Motortrike Adventure kit which is an independent suspension - both are 2008 GL1800s. There is not a pinch of difference in the feel of the ride. In fact the Lehman handles A little quicker and a tad more stable than the Motortrike.
Fuzzy..do not let "they" decide for you. For your peace of mind go ride it and make your own decision. Send me a PM...I have further info for you. Carla
Very nice. Even has the trailer hitch.

"most" are the huge numbers of people who spend their money purchasing the two most popular trikes by a wide margin, CSC and Roadsmith, both of which are independent suspension. Fuzzy should ride different trikes and then make a decision. Fuzzy should also ask about mfg support. How many Lehman dealers are there around the country?
Look, all trikes have good qualities and to each his own. But just because responders have a different opinion than you doesn't mean they are not valid points.

07 ST 1300 for two-wheeled fun!
Personally, I'd get rid of the Jeep and Tweety too, and get this one with instead ... 840 hp ... the worlds fastest production 1/4 mile car ever, and it does wheelies too ... holly sh**

Please keep in mind that anytime I share or give advice about a motorcycle, unless I state otherwise, I am always referring to GL1800's and no other.
Oh Boy ... that's all I need ... a wallet with no money and a license with lots of points ... if you got that kind of power ... you HAVE to use it right?

Update
Well the dealer I was gonna buy this from called this afternoon and said he just got a pearl white, 2008 Gold Wing Navi trike. Incase you don't know, I love white bikes, especially pearl white. Needless to say, I put a deposit on it and will pick it up Monday the 26th. The dealer is 250 miles away, so, I get a last ride on Tweety, then a maiden voyage on Snow Bird.
Now the hard Part ... waiting.I must say the sale is conditional on how the bike looks in person and how it rides.
Here's some picks.
I think it's a Champion Kit.
You might have noticed it is missing a seat. A seam had torn, so it's being recovered. It will been the bike tomorrow, hence, can't pick it up until Monday.
FANTASTIC Fuzzy!!!
Hope Monday gets here quick for you!
Good looking ride, Should give you years of trouble free fun. I'm like you, love the pearl white.
Me too ... I am so ready to be on three again ...
Nice looking trike.

I'm like an old race horse..... I can still run the race -- Just ache more at the finish line and need more rest between outings.
Good for you, Enjoy your new ride.

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