    Default Shocks

    What part number shock and spring did you use. We are also having air bag issues. Have already replaced air bags once. Same problem with another leak. Thinking there is another problem

    I replaced my 2007 gl1800 motor trike Spyder 2+2 (solid axle) bags myself and it took about 2 hrs. purchased them from motor trike dealer in Wyoming. great service. Still leak proof after 3 years. You can do it.

    Air bags were replaced less than a year ago. Evidently dealer didn't fix the issue causing the issue. They will be getting a call Monday. Thinking different shocks could be a remedy.

    No argument, but my Lehman wears a little more on the insides of the tires and it's a shortened solid axle … road crown is the cause I think. .

    I have seen some IRS trikes eat the inside tread out fast, due to steeply cambered rear suspension.

    Which is why you always check ride height before aligning the wheels.

    Also checking PSI and wear on tires. Excessive wear on tires not only tells you what is going on, it also can( in extreme wear patterns) throw toe and camber readings off marginally

    I am new to this but was wondering how many inches the body of my trike should raise when air is empty to when 40 lbs is reached. My ride is a 2005. GW.. Thank for any info you can give me. I certainly enjoy all the info on this site.

    Default HELP! Shocks No Longer Available - Need Alternative Shocks that Fit

    MotorTrike no longer offers shocks for their solid axle trike.

    Anyone have a different shock that you used on your 1800 GoldWing Trike?

    Default Need new shocks and air bags

    I just bought a 2003 GL1800 Honda GoldWing Solid Axle MotorTrike.

    It needs new Shocks and Air Bags.

    I'm going to go with the recommended air bags talked about here.

    .

    * Shocks Question please:

    For those of you that have put a lot of miles on your GL1800 GoldWing Solid Axle MotorTrike, do you think the Original Shocks were a great ride? Or should they have been a little more heavy duty??

    I can buy the exact same shocks, but can get a little heavier spring.

    The original springs are 120/170.

    I can get the shocks with 140/200 springs... or get them with the original 120/170 springs.

    What are your thoughts about getting the 140/200 springs?

    Or should I stick with the original 120/170 springs?

    .
