Thats counter steering, Can't do that on a trike..... If you wanted to turn left....What you should of have done was ;

PUSH UP WITH THE LEFT HAND AND DOWN WITH THE RIGHT HAND..' IE; Turn bars in the direction you want to go...Like turning a steering wheel on a car...

Not for a left hand turn - push up (out) with my right hand and pull down (in) with my left hand - this steers me to the left.

I like what the other guy said - check left turning while sitting still and see if something is caught up. Also, try some low speed maneuvers in a parking lot.

Ok let me Splane it more better….Turn the handle bars in the direction you want to go…And that’s the opposite of counter steering..Counter steering is for a two wheeler..

If I am understanding this right it sounds like the bike may have set up and rust formed in the steering bearings therefore making it hard to turn and it may not prevent turning every time. I would raise the front wheel off the ground and turn the handle bars back and forth listening and feeling for a grinding sound or feeling for binding and flat spots.

Got an Ultra Ride kit on a 2003 Electra Glide. Rear Tires have negative camber and are wearing on the inside. I am the second owner so I do not know if the shocks have been adjusted. Called the factory twice and have not gotten a response yet. Does anyone know how to adjust the camber on this particular kit? Thanks.

If it’s IRS , bring it ti an alignment shop and let them align it to zero with you on it . Most use lazer machines .

Hey ‘Champ Welcome to Trike Talk 👍👍..

Thanks for the welcome. It is IRS just not sure if local automotive shops would know how to adjust this kit.

Got a call back from Doug with Roadsmith. Apparently there’s no adjustment for the camber on this bike. He said to just adjust the preload on the shocks more. That’s what we’ll do.
