    Passenger hip pain

    My wife has joined me on several longer rides on my 1500 SE with the Roadsmith conversion. She absolutely loves coming along but has the same complaint every trip, her hips get sore from riding. The wing has passenger foot rests that raise and lower. She says that at it's lowest setting it is...

    More foot options

    On long rides I am finding it would be nice to have a few options for foot placement. I have the Roadsmith conversion on my 1500 SE, and use the factory foot pegs for general placement. I have always found the wide peg comfortable so never looked to change them. On the engine guard I have a pair...

    Loose side covers

    I have never had any problems with loose side covers on my 1500. Recently I bought new grommets and replaced the originals. Twice since then, while riding in windy weather, the right cover pulled out and luckily I was able to pull over before it flew off. Is there anything I can do with the...

    comp-u-fire alternator

    I have a stock alternator on my 99 Goldwing. I am contemplating upgrading to a Comp-u-fire alternator and a new AGM battery. I have all stock lights and the only extra that I want to run is a heated liner. I have heard that the stock alternators are poor at best so just trying to head off...

    Gas smell and flooding

    I just picked up my Roadsmith conversion a couple of weeks ago. Yesterday we were blessed with mid 70's weather and I took the trike for a 300 mile ride. I used the main tank first and then eventually switched over to the auxiliary tank. Eventually we stopped at a station and I filled the main...

    Just like you said!

    The wife and I spent Saturday trying out a couple of trikes. We traveled a couple of hours from home to give a Hannigan a spin and then came back home and took a Roadsmith out for a ride. I had ridden the Roadsmith solo but frankly at the time I didn't want her aboard being it was my first...

    Place To Park

    I am contemplating taking a trip this winter. I am thinking about traveling from Minnesota to Texas to visit a relative. I would have to do this in January-February so I need to trailer my bike far enough to be out of the snow and possible ice storms. I was wondering if anyone could help with...

    First Trike Ride

    The wife and I went to the Trike Shop in White Bear MN yesterday. I took a 1500 Wing trike for a ride and was blown away. I am contemplating having them do my 1500 however the cost really cuts deep. When I had inquired I was told that the average person sticks about $12,000 - $15,000 into the...

    Goldwing 1500 stereo

    Has anyone replaced their stock stereo on a Goldwing 1500 finally getting rid of the cassette player? I have hit nothing but dead ends and it is a shame because an mp3 player would be so nice. Just thought I would ask. WS

    Roadsmiith Conversion

    Hello! I have a 99 1500 SE that I purchased new. I only have 15,000 miles on it and am considering getting it converted. Any advice on going through with the conversion on this old of a bike?
