    Default Re: have a question about Ground Effects

    I for one really like the ground effects, they seem to add the finishing touch to the Trike. I'm not to familiar with the Victory conversion so I would check into the addition of Ground Effects to find out if they would have to be removed on certain mntce. jobs, as this would add extra time to the job if you did'nt do the work yourself. But I would add them as they really set a Trike off.....

    I really like them on my Electra Glide with the CSC Daytona. I get lots of compliments. Even from the service writers and mechanics at my Harley dealer.

    I guess I will buck the trend pepper, and say that I prefer the clean look of the trike without the effects .

    Not only do they look good, they also deflect a lot of splash from front wheel and clean up the air flow around the trike. Have them on my Roadsmith and love them.

    I think they would not have to be removed but not being up to date on your trike I cannot advise. What I can advise is get what you really like, it will be well worth it in the long run. I wouldn't do without mine.

    I have a Victory Cross Country Tour with a CSC conversion. I did not get the ground effects because I like the simpler look without them. But, I'm loving the trike and I think you will too.

    Mine is on order for our XC I wouldn't think of triking it without the ground effects...personal choice and it will keep road crap down. Ensure you do the ,3m on them,

    They look great IMO and worth the extra few bucks

    We have a Goldwing with the Aqua shields. Great for riding in the rain, but beware that is the first part of the trike will get a lot of rock chips. Still, I wouldn't be without them.

    Yep,,,have 'em and its a CSC too! Love them to death.

    As to removal...not at all necessary for routine stuff. Easy to get to for fluid changes, primary and cluth adjustments, etc.

    If its something that requires removal of entire primary cover, the boards must be removed. In my case (HD), that entails only four bolts and a little careful handling.

    Those voices in my head may not be real, but they have some really good ideas.

    I think they finish off the bottom of the trike.
    Gives some protection for the fenders and keeps some of the rain off our feet/legs.
