Leading links

[Johnlyn]

Hi all, been having problems with the handling of my Harley Switchback trike as I have posted. Couldn't get a triple tree rake kit within a reasonable time which would give me any riding on my trike this summer, so I decided to go down the leading link route. It's with the company who build them at the moment and I'm hoping that I get it back in time to get to Hamburg in June. I have never ridden with leading links, and I would welcome comments form any members on this forum as to the way they ride and handle. I am a member of a few trike forums here in the UK and I have asked on them for any comments on handling and whilst I only got a small response (under 10) all were positive. So I thought I'd throw it out on the biggest trike forum in the world.

John the UK is much more into modifying the front suspension with leading link then the US. Some of our VW trike builders may pickup on this. Leading link is a very successful method and does work well. Good luck on your modification.

Should have read "can't wait to try it."

Johnlyn, FYI. Post you questions to your bike specific forum and to the General Motorcycle forum. Posting to all the forums just jams up the system. When you click on New Post, you will see the new questions from ALL the forms. Keeps things simple that way.
