Recently the ladder on my friend's stallion broke as she was driving on a four lane. She heard the break, then said it was like someone jerking the steering wheel from her, pulling hard to the left. She calmly fought the pull and got off the road. She called the only dealer left in Oklahoma and he immediately knew what had happened. Triple A came and picked up the bike and took it to be fixed. It seems that this was a common problem with 09 trikes.
My bike was scheduled to have a 'check up' since I had bought my bike used and needed to make sure everything was OK. The ladder will be replaced as a precaution and hopefully nothing else will go wrong in the future. I enjoy my stallion greatly as it gives me the opportunity to continue riding without affecting my fibromyalgia too much.
