    Road Star Trike Front Tire

    Not quite there yet but, probably by the end of this riding season I will be needing a new front tire. Was wondering which tire the Road Star trikers are using. Right now have a Dunlop on it of unknown mileage. On another note. Which seat are you using? Thinking seriously of replacing the stock...

    Another Champion Brake Question

    As I'm sure y'all know I recently switched my stock Yamaha mufflers for a set of Cobra slash tip slip ons. Doing this required me to fabricated extension pipes from the Champion kit extensions to make this work. Now, for my dilema. First off, I did nothing to the brake system. After getting...

    Road Star/Champion Exhaust Mod

    After about 3 weeks of searching for ways to do this and overthinking it many times, I think I finally came up with the KISS solution. First picture shows the difference in length between the stock Yamaha pipes and the Cobra Slash tips that I have gotten. My initial thoughts were to use the...

    Road Star Exhaust ??

    Have any of you replaced the stock Yamaha exhaust wit something different? Where did you find piping to extend from the Champion extension pipes? So far auto parts stores are a bust as the only thing the local places have are short adapter pipes. Looks like I may have to talk to an exhaust shop.

    Question for my fellow Road Star Trikers

    Reflections,,,,,,,

    Of my first 1,000 miles on 3 wheels. Actually, almost 1100 about now. But, who's counting right? I should have done this YEARS ago!! Remembering how relaxing a ride is. Even going to work, am totally relaxed to start my day. Going home gets me relaxed from whatever BS came up during the day...

    First month and a half,,,,,

    Since I got the Road Star/Champion tagged. Just got to the 750 mile mark for me. Probably would have been closer to double that but, only put maybe 100 on it from Mar 21 thru Apr 6 or so. This was supposed to be mine and the wife's re-entry into riding. Unfortunately, she passed from the brain...

    This Close,,,,

    to owning our first trike. After an almost 4 month search, one fell almost right into my lap. This past Sunday night was perusing CL and a very affordable trike showed up. Turns out it is located just 6 miles down the road from me. 2005 Yamaha Road Star Silverado w/ Champion conversion, just...

    Question For Valkyrie Trike Owners

    Still looking for our first trike. Have only looked at one as not many show up for sale in my area. Have recently started considering a Valkyrie as an alternative to a Gold Wing. I have found an Interstate fairly close to us. For those of you that own one (or have owned one), What are your...

    Windshield Question

    Getting close to getting my first trike. The one I'm looking at has a few stickers on the windshield. What is the best way to remove these without damaging the windsheld? Petty sure using a razor blade like I would on a car would not be the way to go.

    Trike Search

    Tomorrow the wife and I are going to look at the first in our search for our first trike. It's an '02 Goldwing with a Lehman conversion. What type of things should I be looking for? TIA
