Just bought a 02 Roadhawk and have questions about the brakes. It doesn't have a brake on the front wheel just the rear. It has a very hard pedal and to me the brakes don't work very good. As far as I know everything is stock. I adjusted the brakes the way the VW manual says and it might have helped a little but still not good brakes. I read a few articles on the forum about piston cylinder size of the master cylinder but didn't understand if that helped. Could my master cylinder not be working properly? I talked to the company that sells the Roadhawk. I told them about the brakes and told the guy I don't see how they could sell the trike with inferior brakes and he agreed. He told me to start by readjusting the brakes and agreed I have something wrong. I will keep checking until I get better brakes hopefully. I don't feel safe at any speed. If anyone has any suggestions I would appreciate it.
Also at around 42 to 46 mph I get a vibration from the front then after I get past that it's fine. There are no wheel weights on the rim. I think I will take it off and have dyna beads put in and hopefully that helps. Does anyone else when owns a Roadhawk have any problem with vibration.
If I can get these two things straightened out I believe I will be really happy. Thanks
