1994 Genuine Lehman Trike Build

[pcombe]

I believe the 1989 to 2001 FLH-FLT take the same Trike swingarm.

As I stated above, the same pivot pin, trans/swingarm bushings and trans mount bushings. I know it will work back to 1989.

It may even fit back to 1985 with slight modifications.

Just curious, I had to beef up the top motor mounts on my 1989 Tour glide, Did you do the same or is it strong enough as the newer ones are?

The frame is very similar to the 2007 and earlier FL and the swingarm attachment points are the same as well. I was concerned with the lightweight backbone of the FX and possibly braking the transmission tail housing, so I used solid pivot bushings and nylon fillers for the rear engine/transmission mount. The down side will be extra vibration, but the upside will be very limited lateral twisting of the engine/transmission assembly.

That is my goal and no I didn't beef up the upper stabilizer bracket. I have the velvet links in the front and on top. I have an upper link reinforcement bracket if I need one later.

Only put less than 10 miles on it basically to see if it had any rubbing or rattles. Still have the stock fork clamp but will see how it does.

It feels like a big Sportster in handling. I had a Dyna trike that somehow felt bigger and heavier.

Time will tell the 'rest' of the story !!!!
