I recently bought a 2003 Harley Ultra Clasic with a champion conversion and it leans to the right, any idea how to adjust this.

Joe......Welcome to Trike-Talk.......:wave4:.....
By leaning do you mean at a stand still/parked......Or riding down the road??...
At the stand still and rolling. In a left hand turn you can really tell it is leaning
Make sure the swingarm is properly tightened where its mounted to the bike.
Thanks Marc, I'll take look at the swing arm attach point
Might take a look at shock mount locations. Take a good look at everything underneath. Swingarm connections are pretty solid my 98, don't see how things could be broke/ bent. Stranger things have happened. I would pull the body, myself to look at everything. 6 bolts/nuts and a little wiring finagling. Only way you can see EVERYTHING. KEN
I pulled the back off and checked everthing and didn't find any issues, with the fenders removed measured the distance from the floor to several place on the frame and it was the same. Shimmed the right side of the body and now the lean is gone. Thanks for all the good suggestions.

So it wasn’t leaning per say’ It was just that the body was on lopsided..?
A few Tri Glides left the factory that way..
Glad you got it sorted Joe.
