Trike all road worthy now
We do have a rake kit, and also the tapered bearings. The new Avon Cobra AV71 Trike tire on the front did the trick. But.....now when we start her up we see the main screen, but when we push trip to erase a trip, or info, we get no headlight adjustment screen or temperature screen. The steering stem was tightened, could something in there gotten knocked loose or unplugged? Thanks for the help. Liz

We had a GL1500 Motor Trike that did the same thing as you described. If lessened slightly with a new tire, and as mentioned above, a rake kit cured most of the problem. The rest was cured by slightly over torquing the steering head bearings over the stock specs. This is common with trikes. If you do not add a rake kit, replacing the stock ball bearings with a tapered roller bearing kit will help a lot. (Most rake kits do this as part of the kit.) One of the more popular tapered roller bearing kits fron Wings is, paradoxically, from a company called "All Balls"[/QUOTE]
