Champion Trike Kit - Solid Axle or IRS Rear End?
Looking into putting a trike kit on my 2006 GL1800 this spring and I see that Champion offers both a solid rear axle kit and an IRS rear end kit. The IRS kit is just $1K more.
Would appreciate advice from those with experience regarding which kit to go with, solid or IRS.
What are the pros and cons of each?
BTW, I ride in the Smokey Mountains a lot.
Thanks.
Champion solid with rake kit
I live in the smokys and i rode a champion solid axle for the last 10 years. I also have a n 8 degree rake kit and it handles well. I ride the dragon a lot and just got back from newfoundland(6000miles)with no problems.
Campion out of Trike Business
I called Champion to verify.
Their representative on the phone told me that they are phasing out of the trike kit building business. They will still build side cars and reverse gears but after they sell the last in-stock trike kit they are done.
Too bad. They made a good product.
