Voyager Trike Kit | Recent Installations

[MTC Voyager]

Hey everyone!

Just wanted to post pics of our recent installations. A huge thanks to our customers who decided to make their bikes look this good! Not always easy to get such picturesque opportunities.

If you're in Illinois... GET OUT AND RIDE! It's too beautiful not to on such a perfect day in late November.

Here's a 2003 Honda GL1800 with the Voyager Classic:

Here's a 2012 Harley-Davidson FLH-series with a Voyager Classic:

Here's a 2017 Kawasaki Vulcan 1700 Classic with a Voyager Custom:

WOW, Austin, I have to say that the new MTC Voyager kits for the Gl1800s and Harleys are most impressive. ThumbUp

Those are great photos of the finished product. The kits are truly an eye catcher with great body lines.

:goodjob:

By the way, are the kits a recent new design?

 

[MTC Voyager]

We're glad you like our style! The Voyager Classic style (with the rear body cover) has been around for just over a decade. The newest addition to the Voyager cosmetics are the fiberglass fender options. You can see the Rounded fender on the Kawasaki, the Flared fender on the Honda and Harley, and there's an addition Ridged fender option, as you can see in the images below:

Here's a Triumph Rocket III with the Voyager Custom (Ridged fenders):

Sharp looking trikes, Austin.ThumbUp

Do you have any photos of the "build process"?

Here are some videos of the installations on different motorcycles:

I assume you meant the installation, not the factory build. Is that correct?

I like the looks of the new units, they've really changed. On my GL1500 Goldwing I had one of the older units with the dual shocks. Very nice.

Hey Val,

Do you have any photos of your older unit by chance?

It would be neat to compare the two for the technological enhancements.

ThanksThumbUp

Yes. I believe this is a second generation.

on the last picture it looks like shocks are on outside of frame. Has anyone just left shocks off of an old kit I just removed a leaf spring from each side to make it less stiff

Problems with voyager trike conversion

I purchased a used bike a 2001 Harley Road King with a voyager trike kit installed. I had no installation instructions but found videos on U-tube quite handy. The kit does exactly what is supposed to do.

The problem that I found was were the kit slides into the bracket that is attached to the lower shock mounts it was coming loose, allowing the kit to come out of the mount. Of course this changed the pre-load.

I modified the bracket so that it wasn't able to move or come loose. Then noticed that the bolt that it slides on was waring away and making the bracket that slides onto it was getting larger.

I wrote a letter to voyager and sent pictures of it but got no response. I would like installation instructions for this kit so I can tell if the design is wrong or the person who installed it did it wrong.

I since fixed that problem too. The kit works much better and doesn't require constant reset of preload or grease. Anyone else have these problems?
