    Hi Xarneco, and welcome to TrikeTalk. It is a great place --- you'll find a lot of great people with a wide variety of trikes represented and loved. ALL of them are wonderful in their own way, and most everyone is totally happy with the one they have found for themselves. And guess what: they are all right, because their ride is the right fit for their body, their taste, and their heart. But, you are doing the right thing to ask questions. Some of the answers you get will really connect with you and you will soon find exactly the right trike for you. I have a Fat Boy I rode for several years before adding a Champion kit, and I absolutely loved as 2 wheels and still do as 3.

    Hi welcome aboard. I know Motor Trike makes a VTX 1800 conversion. Great company. Try calling Zook (he's a sponsor on this forum) He is a MT dealer plus a Champion dealer, and a mighty fine guy. I only know him from here, but he has a great rep. Ted

    Great advice Ted! But you won't find him listed as Zook.... try finding Bazooka and send him a message.

    Welcome xarneco! (interesting handle, BTW) Don't know where you're from, but the installer can make or break a trike. A good knowledgeable one (like Bazooka) will stand behind his install because he does it right the first time. There are many very good trike kit makers - ride as many as you can based on the bike you want to trike before you decide. Some differences would be solid axle vs. independant rear suspension, style of the kit, accessories and options. Cost, too. Ask questions, get confused, ask more questions, decide and anticipate! (the anticipation is the worst!) Have fun with it!

    That 1800 makes a sweet looking trike. Go to Bazooka Web page and click on customers rides.

    Check out the kit made by Champion. Bazooka installed one on my 03 Honda 1800 C and I love it.

    Bazooka, What is the link to your shop in Houston? Didn't realize you were a "local Texan". Bought my Roadsmith conversion from a KD Cycles in Alabama but if I get another, may not want to drive as far to pick it up...

    Default 2002 Honda VTX-1800 Trike

    I have a bad vibration issue with my Trike. As I shift gears which is usually rough, it gets bad whenever I reach around 65 and if I shift into fifth gear it vibrates really bad until I reach about 75 then it seems to smooth out somewhat. Would it be in the transmission and what is the best way to check it?

    Paul welcome to Trike Talk…👍👍

    Sounds like a out of balance tire… check your tires for any unusual signs of wear..

    I have a 2006 VTX 1800, motortrike kit, and had a similar problem. Except it was so bad at 65, I never went faster to see if it smoothed out...

    Are the driveshaft U-joints in alignment? Mine were NOT when I got it, and the vibration was crazy.

    Good Luck!!
