front tire trouble on roadhawk
Where can I send the front tire and wheel off my Roadhawk and have a new rim, spokes, have my tire mounted and balanced. I get a vibration from 47 to 55 that definitely is coming from the front tire. I had dyna beads put in it but not really much help. The front rim has a good bit of side run out and a little up and down. I would not mind sending it to someone who knows what they are doig. We have no one here where I live. ( Pineville La.) Any suggestions. Thanks
Man I don't know. I am in Vicksburg and there is no one here either. I do all my own work, just hafta figure it out for myself.
Should be a cycle shop of some sort in Baton Rouge south of you or Monroe north of you.

I had forgot about this guy that does bike work at his house. Alot of people like him and say he does good work. I talked to a guy at bike night tonight that says he does balancing and tire stuff. I am going out to his house Monday and hope he can help me. It is hell living in a town that you can't get anything done. If I can get this straightened out and get my brakes a little better I think I am really going to like the trike. I forgot to tell you I have some wheel cylinders ordered that I hope will help my brakes. They are supposed to have a larger bore than the ones I have. I'll let you know on the tire.

I have some larger bore wheel cylinders ordered for my roadhawk. I am hoping it will help my braking power. I talked to Eric at www.bughaus.com told him my problem and he suggested to use larger bore wheel cylinders. His number is 918-834-4287. I also got a lot of help on here. Hope to get mine working good.
That is awesome news man. Hopefully that helps with your braking issues. I might just put a pair on mine as well.

2002 roadhawk question
Got the front tire issue fixed. New front tire. The tire was bad. Was having a little snifter problem. Was hard to shift and get in reverse. Amazing what a little grease will do. Shifts fine now. Have another motor question but I'll post it under motor questions.
I fitted bug front wheel cylinders to the rear of my Rewaco as they are bigger than the rear wheel cylinders and a straight swap.
That's awesome man!!! Glad you got the tire issue figured out.
