It's amazing that with all the bullshit you've just gone thru, that all he can come up with is punctuation? Why bother reading at all if that is all YOU have to say.

 

well if you see the trike we have built the diff is out where it is seen not covered by a huge pile of fiberglass. so can a leeman or champion kit stand naked in the wind and still look good. sorry if my spelling is in correct I spent 2 yrs. researching every available kit. most require a trunk to hide the diff. not the look we wanted. Also in all the phone calls to the manufacturer it sounded like a good product and the price was doable

 

I have my late father's American Trike converted 09 Heritage Softail.


I just got it from my step mom last weekend. It was done in a rush, and she said the guy that did the work swore to her that all the removed parts could be reinstalled.

I really like the trike, but I have some bad slop in the drive train. Also, it's very difficult to get it into reverse without a lot of crashing of gears.

 

Try putting it in first gear before you go to reverse to stop all the gear crunching.

 

I was told that you can tighten up the kit by adjusting the bolts and pulling back on the diff but ours is the other way very tight also the way the kit was done there is no way to put it back to a bike without buying a swing arm. the Reverse issue we have no problem with our reverse kit as it has to be in neutral too work. But there is the whole thing with finding neutral on a Harley but she is getting pretty good at it. Nice looking trike

 

Regardless of it's issues - Your Dad built a very cool Trike!

Y`know, I`m pretty good at grammar and punctuation, but I find it annoying that some people find it necessary to criticize those who don`t have or use good skills. This is a forum for the purpose of exchanging ideas and input from ALL people on it, whether they have those grammar skills or not. I fail to see the importance of making issue of it. Screw all of you grammar *****.

 

Thanks jcsshane. It was built specifically to attract pretty girls at Fantasy Fest in Key West. It performed flawlessly in that regard. Going from Heritage to trike has not diminished its capabilities.

I found the go to first first trick the other day.

 

LOL - Ya mean like this?

 

I mean like this:

Smokin hottie: "I really like your bike."
Dad: "thanks."
Smokin hottie: "I like the colors. If I get my body paint in those colors, can I get a picture on your bike?"
Dad: "yup."
