    What trailer do you use to haul your trike?

    I put them in the bed of my truck. I stack them up sideways by the tailgate so I still have use of the rest of the bed. I also strap them together so they don’t fly around and damage my other cargo. Works well but it’s really a pain in the arse setting up and taking down the ramps. They’re...

    Was that the same year they came out with the Model A? Lol.

    Cobra trike tire

    I have around 10,000 miles on the front tire of my 2017 wing. It currently seems to have a lot of tread but it’s flat in front. Rides fine. When I bought this tire there weren’t any Cobra trike tires available so I put a regular Cobra tire on it. Does the fact that it’s shaped flat mean that I...

    Indecision on buying trike

    I’ve never driven an Indian but they make awesome looking trikes. That may be your lowest price to have yours converted. I tried the gen 6 wings and didn’t find the seat to be as comfortable as the 2017 I bought. The DCT does seem like a good feature though.

    How much did your MPG drop after the CSC conversion?

    I know that I don’t have one of the newer bikes, mine is a 2017, but I have had experience riding with overinflated rear tires. I run 22 psi in the left tire and 24 in the right. I run higher in the right to help level the bike because the roads tilt to the right for drainage. I brought my trike...

    What trailer do you use to haul your trike?

    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...

    Heated grips and seats not working

    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...

    Valve adjustment

    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...

    Fork oil change?

    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...

    Android app?

    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?

    Rear tie down points

    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.

    Stinger trike hauler

    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.

    Tow hooks

    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?

    Front plastic question

    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...
