Motor Trike Goldwing rear suspension & brake problems

[AndyCapp666]

Hi all. New member - great forum.

Need assist please with 2008 Motor Trike Goldwing GL1800 issues. Just bought the machine and rear air suspension does not work - the electric controls/switches on left side of fairing do nothing and I cannot for the life of me locate the compressor or any fuses that work with it to test (never got any manuals or handbooks with the trike) - can anyone help?

2nd issue - I have a front brake and emergency/parking brake but no rear footbrake. I assume somehow MT tied in the rear brakes to the front brake and handlebar resevoir - is this right? If so does the handlebar resevoir hold all the brake fluid for both front and rear calipers? or is there another, hidden, resevoir?

What is the brake bleeding sequence?

Here is the website for Motor Trike: About Our Company, Motor Trike

There are three Motor Trike dealers in Oregon: 1 Eugene, 2 Grants Pass and 3 (Near you in Portland) in Forest Grove at 8440 NW Gales Creek RD, Phone 503 357-8081. Probably not going to get much from Motor Trike because they don't give out much to their customers only to their dealers.
