I have a 2017 Goldwing with a Roadsmith trike kit. When I take it on a trailer I use a BigTex 10’ landscape trailer. Because the Roadsmith is so long I can’t use the ramp that comes with the trailer because it will bottom out as it goes onto the trailer. I have to remove the ramp/tailgate and...

I have a 2017 wing with a Roadsmith kit. I noticed that my grips and the seat heaters aren’t working. It’s possible that the seat may be working but I have a Hartco custom lamb skin seat cover so sometimes it’s hard to tell if it’s working or not. It doesn’t appear to be. Is there a fuse that...

I have a 2017 wing with a Roadsmith kit. I believe it says in the manual that it should have the valves adjusted at 30,000 miles. It currently has 27,000. This may be a stupid question but what is the purpose of having the valves adjusted and what happens if you don’t have it done? I traded in...

I have a 2017 Wing with a Roadsmith conversion. 25,000 miles. Recently I noticed that when my front tire hits a hole in the road it makes a very loud plastic to plastic sound. Do you think maybe I have a bad fork seal? Is it possible that maybe the fluid just needs to be replaced? I’ll be the...

I’m able to navigate triketalk with my iPad but not my phone. I have an android phone and the website doesn’t work. I read about people using iPhones all the time. Is there an app that I can install on my android phone?

I have a 2017 Goldwing with a Roadsmith kit. I’ve read that some trike kits have tie down points near the rear shocks for trailering the bike. Does Roadsmith have any hooks for tying down the rear of the trike? It would be great if you could include pictures.

Has anyone ever used the Stinger trike hauler? https://stingertrailer.com/product/stinger-for-trike/ I was wondering about the quality and if it will work on a 2017 Goldwing with a Roadsmith kit. Roadsmith is longer and wider than a Triglide.

I was watching a video where I saw that Harley triglide has towing hooks mounted to the frame to provide tie down connections for tow straps. I have a 2017 Goldwing with a Roadsmith kit. Does Roadsmith have any tie down hooks?

I have a 2017 Goldwing. I went for a ride today and ran across quite a few bumpy roads. When I got back I realized the plastic piece directly below the headlight was loose. I checked and on the right side is a clip built into the plastic piece goes into a slot. I put the clip back in but now I’m...

I took my wing out for about a 2 hour ride with no issues. Temperature was about 45 degrees . I stopped at a gas station a mile from my house to fill up and on the way home the bike just died while going up a steep hill. I pulled to the side of the road and it wouldn’t start in gear. Not even a...

I have a 2017 wing with a Roadsmith kit. The Tire Pressure Monitoring System light came on and won’t shut off. I assume there aren’t any pressure sensors on the rear tires. I did have the front tire replaced about 2 months ago and haven’t had any problems up until now. I checked all the tire...

I’ve had 2 Roadsmith trikes now. A 1997 and a 2017. Both Goldwings. The trunk leaked water on both of them. Any suggestions for how to fix the problem? Both bikes were separate builders. Any advice on how to fix the problem?

I just received an Avon front tire for my Goldwing trike. It says cobra chrome (63v), 130/70vr18, av91. They told me it is for a trike but my old one said “trike” right on the side and this one doesn’t. Did Avon change that? Is this tire for a trike?

I'm planning on going to Savannah, Ga. this August and possibly renting a Tri-Glide while I'm there for a day or two. I believe the average temperature is around 90 degrees that time of year. My question is about the bike possibly over-heating. I've never owned an air cooled bike and would like...

I bought my trike last June, 2019. The trike kit and tires were new. There is an Avon trike tire on the front that now has 10,000 miles on it. I don't see any signs of "cupping" and the bike rides great. How many miles do you get out of your front tires? Should I just replace it based on miles...

I was wondering if anyone has ever tried to apply window tinting on the inside of their windshield. In the fall the sun is very low and blinding around 4 o'clock or so. I have an F4 windshield and would hate to ruin it if I wanted to remove the film later. My prescription sunglasses aren't...

I recently got my renewal notice from Progressive. $979 if I paid in installments, $856 if I paid in full. I looked into it and by the time I was done I had a policy with Geico for $460 paid in full. I kept all my coverages high but increased my deductibles on collision and comprehensive fro...

Just curious to get some feedback from anyone who has bought a 2018 wing or newer Goldwing. If you've owned a GL1800 2017 or older, Do you like the new one better? I've seen posts where people have had electrical issues. Whether that is trike kit install related or not is that true for you? Any...

I recently had a bad experience with the local Honda dealer. Completely mis-diagnosed my bike apparently because they didn't want to take the time to work on a 22 year old Goldwing. I ended up ordering a new trike to be built thinking mine needed thousands of dollars of work and Honda doesn't...

I just bought a 2017 Goldwing with a Roadsmith kit. Absolutely love it. The problem is I installed my GPS with my Ram mounting lit and need to run the power cord into the compartment on the left hand side compartment where the 12 volt auxilliary plug is installed. There really isn't a cut-out to...
