Haven't purchased a trike as yet but have settled on a Roadsmith by The Trike Shop. Here's our dilemma.
We live in the Seattle area and there is only one conversion shop and they only do Lehmans. They do excellent work but we want an independant axel trike. So the conversion shop is about 850 miles away, give or take.
The bigger problem is the voiding of the warranty on a Harley if you trike it. I have talked to every H-D shop from Tacoma to Bellevue and the answer is almost word for word the same. If you trike a Harley you void the warranty.
Since I was entertaining the idea of an 09 Ultra I wouldn't feel real great sitting on three wheels with no warranty.
Here's my question. What are other trikers experiencing from their H-D dealers on the subject of waranties on triked Harleys? I know there are some dealers that will work under the table with some folks. But that doesn't seem to be the case in the PNW.
Appreciate any input. Really hate to invest close to $40,000.00 and be sitting in the dark on warranties.
Regards,
Long Rider
