hawkeye the problem isn't stopping power its locking up after first use of the day. If you please have you worked on the rear break system or taken it apart on the renagade? I have a guestion... the valve in the rear that the brake lines connect to... Is this a proportioning valve or a junction block? Thanks

Thanks very grateful for any responses thanks
Replaced the rear brake wheel cylinders, cleaned out junction block, bled brakes. The number for the rear cylinders on a Lehman) HD is as follows if any one needs the parts for their Trike...

I will keep you posted as to the progress after l finish my spring maintenance, and can test drive it...

A list of parts that Lehman used would be very helpful to me for the conversion from drum as installed on your ultra with disk break system thanks

Anyone know where to find replacement pads for my rear brakes and emergency brake too. It’s at 2006 Lehman trike conversion.

Sorry for all the questions but I'm knew to the trike world and living in California there is only one dealer and not much info. Thanks in advance!
Ask the political geniuses on the trike talk forum.

The scoop you're getting on the registration of trikes in California is incorrect. All three of mine are licensed on California paper as motorcycles and not subject to emissions testing. In the six years I've been on three, all in California, I've never had to have any of them emissions tested.

My first trike (one of the three I still have) is a 2002 FLHT with a Lehman Renegade kit. It has drum rear brakes as does my wife's 2004 FXSTS with Lehman Bandit kit. Both have stop-on-a-dime braking power. My 2007 Ultra with Champion kit has rear discs, will stop on a dime and give you change back.

I love to talk trikes. If you'd like more info or would like to get together sometime shoot me an email and we'll hook up.
Hello. Since you have a few Leman trikes did any of them develop rear end noise?. I just bought one, a Harley renegade conversion with drum brakes and can't find any documentation on these. Thank You for any information.
