Bought a 2014 Wing with a 2015 HTS trike kit.
Went to check the lug nut torque and it looks like I need a special socket.
Anyone have info on what I need to get?

Might try searching all the storage compartments for the specialized socket for lug nuts or contacting the PO. He may have forgot about the socket.
Those are spline security lug nuts made by Gorrila
You can find them sold @ Oriellys and Auto Zone
I used to hate it when customers lost their locking key
I have an old beat to death set of sockets I use to drive on these type of nuts
Once I take them Off I let the customer decide on what to put back on
Sometimes you get lucky some times not so much
Good Luck in your search

Found the last one in town at an AutoZone.
Goofy thing that will now find a home in the tool bag!
I bought a 2017 this year with a brand new Roadsmith. Apparently they didn't torque the nuts correctly and one fell off. Called the out of state dealer and he was very apologetic. He said the special sockets were not sent with the Roadsmith kits and sent me one of his used ones along with several new nuts. He also ordered a new one and sent that when it came in. I don't understand why Roadsmith sees the need to install anti-theft nuts on their kits. Has there been a rash of cases where people are jacking up trikes to steal the tires that I didn't hear about?
No it wasn't them. I know you and Doug are "best friends." LOL I had my last wing triked there. The initial work was very good. Glenn was working there at the time and he's the one who did it. When I had some problems with my '97, not trike related, I called him and tried to make an appointment and he kept just blowing me off. Too busy, too busy. This went on for about 3 weeks until I finally talked to people for advice and fixed it myself. Took 1/2 hour. Guess he didn't have time for that. My '17 was triked in Alabama. Other than the torqueing issue I would highly recommend them for a purchase. I had an issue with a faulty bearing in the triple tree and they had me bring it to my dealer of choice, Nault's of Windham N.H., and he paid for the whole thing. No questions asked.
