Hello, just getting ready for my first ride. Two questions. How do you change out the gear oil from a Lehman setup? And my front tire says psi 41#'s and Lehman says front should be 29. Please set me straight on what it should be for a trike bike.

Thanks

The 41# on the tire is the max as per the tire manufacturer.
Try what Lehman recommends and and go from there.
 
With only 29 pounds in the front tire, you have probably decreased the weight capacity by about half. The front tire is probably overloaded. Too much sidewall flex, a disaster in the making.
 
tire pressure also depends on the bike gw are heavy front end my kawie runs at32 so lehman should have a good idea what there unit need.

I have a Suzuki C90 Boulevard Lehman Jackal. I run 38 # in the front, which I got from two different Suzuki owner's websites. I run 20# in the rear tires, which is the dealer recommendation. I have the original OEM Bridgestone tire on the front and just turned over 28,500 miles on the trike. The front tire still has good tread on it. I'm guessing there's still a few thousand miles to go. <img src="images/smilies/thumbup.gif" border="0" alt="" title="ThumbUp" class="inlineimg" />
