Did it always wander, Or is this something new.....Wandering a ''little'' to the right is somewhat normal do to the slope in the road [Crown]...

long story

Never really got to ride it much because of the shaking problem.

every trike iv'e ever ridden you need to keep alittle pressure on the right side because of the slope in the road. hop on an interstate that you can get in the left lane. if the left lane is sloped to the outside the trike will wanna go to the left following the slope. also it is worse if you are running the stock triple tree. gets less the more rake you have.

if it continues to want to go right on a left slope then i would say your trike isn't level. take a look at the front tire. measure out from the center of the tire to the edge of the wear pattern. is it the same on the left as it is on the right. if its farther out on the right then your trike is leaning. that would make it pull to the right. another thing that will make it pull is the wheels running stagger. measure from the rear footpeg mount to the front of the rear. see if they measure the same distance.

Thanks , bikes not leaning, i think its a stagger problem, will check it out.
