    Default Lehman Monarch II help

    I have a 2012 GL 1800 with a Lehman Monarch II Kit.

    Would like to know at what point on the Kit or Bikes frame would be the best place to jack the rig up so that the solid axle rear end would hang down to the lowest point.

    Also, what to do with the Kits Aux. Shock as well as the GL's shock



    It looks like placing a jack on the Kits frame up under as close to the center of the Trike would be the best place. However, I'm not sure where. I've read that some use the trailer hitch bar but I have concerns as it looks like it would create a long moment arm resulting in significant stress on the welds.

    What I have to work with are (2) 8" high ramps, (2) table platform jacks, 2 jack stands, and a Pit Bull motorcycle lift

    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    For one thing, I want to replace the Standard weight Aux. Shock with a heavy duty. I have a complete heavy duty assembly.

    Place a jack beneath the rear axle housing differential.

    Raise the rear axle enough to put jack stands on either side.

    I usually remove the wheels and place the stands under the brake rotor. Not on the edge of the rotor but on the flat of the rotor.

    Lower the jack until the rotors are just resting on the stands. If your trike has efx boards and they were installed with an additional support bracket, you can place the flat jack beneath that support bracket and raise the motorcycle. If there is no support bracket where the center stand was mounted, you can take a small 2x4 and place it beneath where the old center stand was and raise the motorcycle from that point.

    It will be necessary to disconnect dog-bone-link, or as honda refers to it “rod-sub-assembly” at the arm-sub-assembly.

    Break loose the bolt and nut and remove the nut.

    Using your paddle jack you can now raise the motorcycle slowly until you can rotate the bolt and remove it.

    Now you can raise the motorcycle enough to easily remove the aux shock.

    If you need more lift, you can adjust it with the paddle jack.

    I suggest installing the shock on the lowest preload and adjusting the preload after the shock is installed.
