2016 Roadsmith Goldwing needs rebuilt rear CV shafts - pumpkin seal also leaking

Hi, everyone - my first real post. Recently picked up a 2016 Goldwing trike with Roadsmith kit. Dealer says I need a rebuild on rear CV shafts - and that there is a leak at the "Pumpkin seal" - at the gearbox where the CV shafts go into. I don't know what all of this means. The dealer doesn't do that work, so they asked me to find someone who does. How big of a deal is this?? Dealer says that otherwise, the Trike is great - they looked it over thoroughly. Thanks!
 
If you have all the tools, a jack and stands it is not a bad job to do if you have the proper skills
 
I wish you live just a tad closer (I'm from Massachusetts) I would love to help you if close'rrr ................Maybe someone in Las Vegas, would volunteer to help you

Another option is to contact D&D Discount Motorcycles in Tempe, AZ, about 275 miles from you. They are owners of Champion Trikes and work/convert all major trike brands. It's an easy day ride, overnight in AZ and ride home with a fixed trike. Make it an adventure!!!!! Good luck..... Jim
