I have a 2012 Gold Wing with the RoadSmith trike kit(love it) Notice that both rear tires are wearing on the inside. Is there a fix?

I ordered my Roadsmith Kit last week, what's the wait time generally speaking?

[tourman]

I know Rotors are made by Roadsmith. Give them a call about the hubs

[tourman]

Why not ask them when you ordered?

I had asked a question about shoot'n grease into the rear driveshaft, via the grease jurks located under there, and never received an answer..

How often should I shoot (apply) grease into the rear drive shaft????????????

Roadsmith told me the drive shaft doesn't need to be greased

My first thought would be to check the condition of your shocks. Looking from the rear, do tires look splayed out on the bottom vs the top?? Might need new shocks or adjust the preload.

I think I read that you put 1 pump of grease in driveshaft every spring.

Doug at Roadsmith told me the drive shaft does not require greasing

How do you remove the LP holder on the trunk? Been turning those Allen wrench screws but they won’t loosen anything. Need help replacing my LP. Do you go into the trunk or what?

Just a shot in the dark here.......By any chance were you trying to countersteer? like you do on a Two wheeler......You can't do that with a Trike....You have to turn the bars in the direction you want to go....

7-16-23 I was Pushing up or to left with right hand and pulling down with left hand as hard as I could. Either time it wouldn’t go to left .

1st time on 2 lane slight curve to left : crashed thru a wood mailbox post .

2nd time on a straight highway road: semi passed with wind pushing against us , Up and down thru a deep ditch stopping on a side off road

Just to add to Rodney’s issue , it’s a push - pull on the bars . It’s a natural as wear you look is wear you will go . Sightseeing is not advised on any twisties …

If your just sitting on the trike not running or moving do the handle bars move right to left with no binding ? maybe you have wires, a brake hose or clutch cable binding up the steering ?

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...
