Lehman Trike Parts & Info Thread

[Lee H. Mann]

I have been trying with apparently no success in getting them to post.

Anyone will to let me email them to you and possibly you can post.

I am lost.

Go to www.mjtrikes.com and email them to me from my email address there. Request that I post them on the thread and I will.

Howdy I have what I am pretty sure is a Lehman strike kit on my 87 goldwing.

What I am looking for is where the mounting bolts are?

I found 2 steel angles that touch front by where passengers foot rest are.

The each have 2 holes drilled into steel but nothing into the fiberglass of the fender.

Any ideas of where the attaching points are?

George, I believe you have a Motortrike and not a Lehman.

The bracket looks to have been added later and not original.

In the early 1990's Lehman and Motortrike aesthetically had similar body designs.

The links that connect the rear axle to the motorcycle are typically Motortrike.

I have contacted Lehman and have been told they no longer carry these. They are chrome grills that cover the lens on the Monarch II rear light bar. I need one set which I believe they came in sets of two. Some how one of mine got broken

If anyone knows where I can buy them, any help would be greatly appreciated!

Wayne, I will look and see if I have a set. You need both a left and right grill ?

Wayne, All sources have been exhausted and they have been discontinued for several years now. I have a set (contains left and right chromed grill) I will sell for $20.00.

I just put my hands on a limited amount of disc brake calipers that can replace the old TBM calipers that are no longer supported by TBM and the soon-to-be-obsolete disc brake pads that they use.

These calipers are fully loaded and virtually are bolt-on replacements that I am changing the pistons on. The pair are just about as expensive as 1 TBM caliper and must be used in pairs.

The Wilwood disc brake pad is not as dusty or as abrasive as the TBM pads were so you should get better life from the rotors too.

Attachment 62752

The TBM disc brake system was used from 1996-2005 on Lehman Harley-Davidson models before they used select Wilwood brake systems. The TBM calipers were used in conjunction with the LR1013 rotor and a spot parking brake caliper. The Wilwood is a bolt-on direct replacement and you can still maintain your spot parking brake caliper too.

We are rapidly closing in on Winter and putting our Trikes away for the season in most of the US.

Due to numerous requests and persistence to manufacturers, I have gathered some items that were, until now, unavailable to me or other Lehman Trike Owners.

LS0626 Auxiliary Shock Absorber for Lehman Monarch II Straight Axle 2004 - 2012

GB1099 Parking Brake Lever used on Lehman Trikes after 2003 to current. I have 10 of these on order from the original manufacturer and should be seeing them in December 2018. Information for the lever is not yet up on my website until I have the parts in hand.

Justin,

I just discovered your post, must have missed it earlier.

I am pretty sure it is covered in this section of the forum, but I will try to explain what you asking and will provide you with some helpful tips.

The rear axle used on the Lehman Trikes with shaft drive since 2001 have been a recreation of the 1972-1978 Ford Pinto.

Lehman had these axles manufactured overseas to those specifications. Lehman also had a specific gear set manufactured as well. Since Lehman changed hands and now Champion Trikes has substituted their own rear axles to Lehman Trikes manufactured after 2013.

Since 2013, the gear set began to dwindle and there are no new gear sets available.

I am working feverishly to find suitable gear ratios in used parts.

I have exhausted all existing NOS gear parts in the US.

Ironically, very few bearings and seals are available in Canada where Lehman originated.

These bearings, seals and brake parts can still be obtained from jobbers in the US, but are somewhat limited in supply.

I try to keep wear items in stock for Lehman owners.

The one single overlooked service item is gear oil.

If you develop a leak in the rear axle, keep the fluid level in check until the leak can be fixed.

Occasionally the rear brakes need adjusting (5-10K).

The u-joint needs grease every 5K with an oil change.

Rear tire pressure should be 20psi.

I hope this helps.

I have a 2003 Suzuki C50 with a Lehman Romani conversion. I have part numbers and breakdowns for the rear brakes, also the installation instruction manual for the conversion kit with part numbers, and rear wheel and tire dimension diagrams. If anyone needs these let me know, I'll be happy to share the info.*

I would like that disc brake info. I have a 97 vt 1100 Lenman(don't know the model! has a trunk lid on top,not the rear.) Thanks al smith in Seguin,Tx (832-948-3682)

[Montana Lee]

Jim, I have a 2010 Monarch II , 25th anniversary model. As I understand, it has drum brakes . Do you have any idea what these brakes are? I am assuming they are on off the shelf for some particular vehicle.

Have you looked?

Easy to see through wheel openings between spokes unless wheel centers are solid.

Likely 9" diameter Ford as used on many Ford autos and small PUs over wide range of years. Most of the stuff like shoes, springs, adjusters, hold down hardware, are the same but there are several different wheel cylinder sizes available (I can't tell you what size WCs yours are, but I could tell you mine). Drums have either 4 or 5 lug holes depending on if used in Pinto or Granada or Ranger PU or etc. I expect yours are 4 lug, like Pintos, Mustang-IIs, '80's T-birds, etc.

Jim will be along soon but I wasn't sure if you needed the info faster?

[Montana Lee]

First off, thanks for all the info. I am temporarily handicapped and not supposed to be walking. I did hobble out to the garage to try to find out what I have . It's a 4 bolt wheel and it does after all have disc brakes. I don't need them, right now as the trike combo only has 6000 total miles on it. But trying to build a data base for what I will likely need some day. It's shame that the trike manufacturer doesn't provide that info. Every single trike out there is going to need parts of some type someday. BTW, that hubcap is quite a deal to get off. Looks like I'll need special tools on board to get it off if I'm on the road somewhere.

Understand all too well then hobbling. Jim should be abler to help on disc brake parts. I was lucky when bought our trike, got everything, takeoffs, records, install manual, invoices, everything.

Later …. Take Care!

I forgot to compliment you on a beauitful GL1500 trike. I've had a few 1500's but never had one triked.

[R Brown]

I have hitch that came off a Harley Renegade, don't know it they are similar, but it is a hitch that bolts to the trunk floor supports

Do you know what year, I have a 2011 Lehmen renage , an looking for one, how much

Congratulation on the Tee Shirt win !

The wheel hub (2 piece) would have to be machined to accept your speedometer drive and bearings. The hub might be a couple hundred dollars and would need a donor wheel doing the machining.

They make a nice dressup kit for the GL1500 front wheel that I have used that closely matches the GN (9 spoke) wheel.

Well, that'll teach me not to look at links …. might have to get a set now.
