Pick up the triglide next week. Much talk here - about installing a lift kit. I like the idea, but lifting the rear end, even a little bit - - will that not change the whole "rake" angle & the whole physics of the steering. ?????

Be the Man - your Dog thinks you are.
Our Trike is lifted and will improve handling greatly, raise the back only an 1 1/4" to 1 1/2" depending on which lift you choose. helps keep front tire planted and gets mufflers off the road. There is several different lift kits available now do a little research, will be very pleased with the results. travel safely Fred

I am not trying to talk you out of a lift kit at all.....but if you are thinking of going with a different shock or shock system {Air} I'd suggest you install those upgrades first. When I installed the Progressive shocks on my Trike, not only are they longer, but have less sag....that alone brought my back end up enough for me. Just a thought....nothing more. jc
My lift kit on the 17 has a second location to set the longer shocks at a little different angle so shouldnt be an issue when i upgrade the shocks.
YES it would change the geometry some, but not enough to notice
These trikes can use aLL the help they can get in the rear with that solid (not so forgiving poorly designed) ASS End JMO
