Motor Trike rear end noise!!!
Hi everybody newbie to this forum. Great info. My wife rides an 05 V-Rod with a Motor Trike kit we had installed in 08. She loves it. All summer I have been trying to trace down a noise in the rear of the trike. Finally disassembled rear to find the races of both inner axle bearings have been spinning on the center section which is now trashed. Motor Trike is going to take care of repairs no charge. Except for shipping each way. I'll post some pics this weekend. Just thought I'd put this out there to maybe help someone else.....iowatreepepper

Welcome to TrikeTalk! I also ride a V-rod trike but with a Hannigan kit, and I love it too :).

Wish you could have posted this a couple of months ago - would have saved us a lot of time "diagnosing" the problem on mine!
:laugh: Glad Motor Trike is going to repair it for you!!

MT has a 3 yr. warrenty, should cover shipping also. I would question them on why you have to pay shipping, not your falt it has to be repaired.

welcome aboard glad you joined us.
bullet i believe he said his conversion was done in 08 that makes it 4 years old. sounds like mt is making it right except for shipping even though it is out of warrantee.
