I ordered a kit through a local dealer in September. We laid down about ten grand. So far the dealer knows nothing and there is no response from Roadsmith after repeated emails. Did I just lose my money ?

Did you ask for it back ? If you used a Credit Card, call the card company and dispute the charge. Good LuckOriginally Posted by GeorgeB

If you lend someone $20 and never see that person again, it was probably worth it.
I would call instead of e-mailing.
Here's their number from the website. (800)331-0705

Roadsmith is a sponsor here at Trike-Talk......Maybe one of the moderators can help you to get in touch with them......

Since September?? WOW! That’s a long time not to have SOME kind of response from SOMEBODY!! Did you pay the 10 Grand to the dealer himself or direct to Roadsmith?
Maybe try a polite, stern letter of inquiry via registered mail to Roadsmith? That MIGHT get someone’s attention since they will have to sign for it.
Keep us informed... so that others can be aware of the crux of the problem.. Thanks.

Not the first time this has come up this year. Roadsmith has been running behind.I would say your money is safe.Your dealer is only telling you what they know and at this point is in the middle.
Do not argue with an idiot.He will drag you down to his level and beat you with experience.

Hey George - saw your post last night. I looked into the orders on-hand and I believe you ordered your kit through Ken's Custom? If so, we are starting the paint process later this week. So we are close to shipping. Sorry about the unusually long lead-time. It's been an extremely busy year. Shoot me an email to jim@roadsmithtrikes.com and I can keep you updated on progress.I ordered a kit through a local dealer in September. We laid down about ten grand.

Hi Ronnie, you had issues with an installer, has it been resolved? and if not Has Roadsmith helped, I know you've contacted them. I'm guessing they did because you mentioned that's the reason you chose Roadsmith as your trike providerI'm also "totally impress".............

Glad you got the answer you wanted, that installer you were dealing with should be removed as a Roadsmith installer. Talk soon for get together. Happy New Year!

here are some shots of the '97 Valkyrie, Roadsmith conversion. I finished it in four days and was very straightforward. Simple machine, simple conversion. I don't think I would have done a new GW 1800.
