Hello from Cold Lake Alberta Canada

Found your site today and enjoying some good info allready. We own a Victory Cross Country, Victory Kingpin and Harley Springer Cross bones.

Seriously considering selling off the Springer (sad day when that happens) and the Kingpin, another great bike. My wife is experiencing some shoulder and back problems that make us look at trikes, along with my bad knee.
Just did a 9000km ride from Alberta through parts of Canada and USA to New York State ,Quebec and all over Ontario. My wife was hurting pretty bad but...rode like the trooper she is to home and hasn't been back on her own since, just pillion with me. Anyway it got us to thinking maybe, a trike is in order before we have a more serious issue. I know the GW's are awesome rigs and 2 friends here have them but...not for us. Any of the harleys we have seen are solid axle setups (so far) The Triglides seem to have a couple of issues, like anything mechanical, heat being a big one but with a good stage1 and Power Commander 5 should be ok, I haven seen one of the CSC conversions here for the harlies yet. The triglides dont have the ground affects package, at least that I have seen and like and ....are 39k CDN OTD here stock. Then the conversion.

Now, I have just recently seen the CSC Ventura kit for our Victory Cross Country with their own tour trunk, ground affects, heavier duty brakes etc etc and love the looks, unfortunetly no one to get any feedback from, as yet.

My Cross Country has beautiful military airbrush work on it, so we would lose out on the saddle bags and have to have the rear cargo door painted on a trike kit for it but, would a couple dollars back on selling the rear wheel, pulley backrest and bags I suppose..

Wish we knew someone with this kit but because its a CSC we figure it should be pretty decent, The conversion would run 23K OTD up here by a licenced CSC shop.

Thx for having me and look forward to learning!
