    Roadhawk air pressure

    This sheet I have from when we had a Tikeshop Runabout and, later, a Roadhawk may be of use:

    Road Hawk literature

    Been away from the board for a while, just check in here and there and missed a lot on Trike Talk. Our black Raodhawk was traded in for a Can Am Spyder, and the one you have sure sounds like the mods I did to it. Check under the seat on the right side near the battery. I installed a fuse box...

    What type of phone mount do you have on your TriGlide?

    Not in agreement with the in the pocket/trunk crowd. Phone is not just a phone these days, it is a music player, weather warning, traffic tracker and GPS on short trips. (Have a stand-alone Garmin for longer jaunts.) When I ride I don't answer the phone, calls go to voice mail. My favorite mount...

    Missouri to most likely jto be helmet choice in August

    The Missouri General Assembly has passed a large transportation bill which includes helmet modification and will go to Governor Mike Parson. He will have 45 days to veto it (At this point this seems to be not likely, the bill is clean, and the Governor has said he will support helmet...

    Champion Vin #

    The Campion kit was added to the 2004 GL1800 we have in 2006 according to the sticker on the left swingarm. It has what Champion calls the VIN, it is the number used if some bureaucrat needs the serial number of the trike kit. The picture shows the swingarm right side up - the sticker was...

    Belly pan

    May be late to the party, but a few tips on belly pans - The 2 piece pan advantage has been mentioned, but I found it easier to remove/replace the front piece if they use dzus fasteners. I had one on our old 1500 trike that had a captured nut on the larger part and, other than losing a bolt...

    Communication ports

    Don't know what happened to the link, so here is a diagram of the fusebox and solenoid as I put it in the Road Hawk. The diagram is the basic set up I have used in the last 7 or 8 bikes/trikes. I put it under the passenger seat in front of the rear fender (which you don't have on the Tri Glide)...

    Road Hawk Odometer

    I'm guessing that the odometer isn't visible. The Roadhawk has a LCD odometer/tripmeter display on an analog speedometer. Here is a picture of the speedo on the 2007 Roadhawk we had: The odometer may not be getting power so it's not visible to inspectors. If the speedometer portion works there...

    need 12 volt switched supply

    I have installed a 6 place fuse block powered by the battery through a solenoid so it comes on with the ignition on all my bikes for the last 15 years. I have run heated gear, extra lights, power taps and such without worrying about overloading the wire harness. To energise the solenoid I have...

    Post Your Can Am Spyder Trike Pics

    Finally got a few pics of the Spyder. (Please ignore the messy garage) And here is Gloria practicing in a casino parking lot. She said it was a lot of fun, 1 more practice session and she'll try hitting the road. She hasn't done the pilot seat thing in many years, since about '04 when we sold...

    New to Spyder world

    Hello folks! Long time triker and Trike Talk member but new to the Spyder world. We sold a Roadsmith Roadhawk with the automatic tranny and got a 2018 Spyder RT Limited. Gloria wanted something that she could ride herself (she never got the hang of shifting a motorcycle, the Roadhawk and her old...

    Change happens - new ride in the garage

    Once upon a time in ancient Greece it was said "The only constant is change." A decade or so ago we sold Gloria's Trike Shop (as Roadsmith was at that time) Runabout to get a Goldwing GL1500 Motor Trike, as touring and 700 mile days were in the plans. The 1500 bit the dust and we got a GL1800...

    telephone mount

    Love me the RAM mounts. I have them for drink holders I made for the Bubba bottles, the GPS and the phone holder. For some reason I never did quite trust the X-Mount, even with the rubber piece to keep things attached. I got the Quick Grip, phone is very secure. It goes on the handlebar mount on...

    Missouri defines autocycle

    The Missouri governor signed a bill into law June 1 that will take effect Aug. 28 defining an autocycle. From the full text, new portions are in bold: (2) "Autocycle", a three-wheeled motor vehicle which the drivers and passengers ride in a partially or completely enclosed nonstraddle...

    "soiled" Fingers

    I have a leather wrap on the levers of my Harley. They are like the picture below but without the laces hanging down. Been on the bike for 23 years. There is something called Iron Braid - they cover your levers with braided leather, comes in all kinds of colors, with or without fringe.
