Anyone try making little louder than stock Pipes on 1500 trike?
Extractor stainless steel collector after header pipes, not that big empty chamber, stock mufflers, sounds great.- CrystalPistol

U joint
Honda "what"? If a Gold Wing, it'll use a Moog rear U-joint, and a Honda Valkyrie front U-joint (last I heard, that's the one Honda sells now) That 1800 U-joint is a modified one that was used at one period.- CrystalPistol

New Brake Shoes Locking Up 2004 Lehman Goldwing
Why are you wanting new backing plates? That video is about the 9" Ford axle. I looked at your pictures, you have an early 6.75" integral type carrier Ford axle. Used in some Pintos, Mustang IIs, even some early Bronco IIs, Fairmonts, etc. Lehman either shortened the axles or had new axles...- CrystalPistol

How Do You Jack Up Your No Lean Susp. Solid Axle for Tire Change?
I had added a long piece under the rear axle that ran from hitch reciever to center stand mount lugs. It stiffened the rear frame too. With the block in place, it jacked it all up as one. Without the block, it let the axle drop. A trike is like a triangle tripod, so if I just needed one side...- CrystalPistol

Wife and I drove up the road for a long drive, gorgeous day too. Due to some issues with lymphoma, brain cancer, etc ... I gave up on the bikes and the trike, sold the trike to the original owner's son in 2020 as neither of us felt safe on it, my vision left of dead center was FUBAR .... but...- CrystalPistol

Cargo Tray for CSC trailer hitch
Mine did not have a receiver until I built one, then I built a carrier that I could stand on, included running and brake lights too ... for those times I left the trailer home. I built the receiver to replace a stock springy flat bar, and added a long lever type piece that attached to where...- CrystalPistol

AR
Used to have a M4 issued, got a lot of training on it. Dept did that after 911. Since retirement, been thinking I might get another AR base ... for some reason Dept wanted me to turn that issue one in back in 2010, soon 13 years ago. Was at the inlaw's, and POTUS was talking on the boob...- CrystalPistol

2006 lehman goldwing
Are you sure it is a 7.25" ... not a 6.75" which is what all I've seen under a Lehman trike? Think like 1980 Pintos. Ford 9" drum brakes. Not to scale, but to show the bolt patterns. If you have 8 bolts holding the rear cover on, you have a 6.75" rear like other Lehmans.- CrystalPistol

Back Savers ....or cranes.
I am getting the MAXXTOW #70238 1/2 ton hitch secured hydraulic crane. It looks easy to set up & use. (https://www.etrailer.com/Truck-Bed-A...w/MT70238.html) I just wondered if anyone here has used one, and if so, any thoughts? Looks like a "back saver" to me. :) It would have been nice...- CrystalPistol

Just thinking out loud now, no plans .....
Well, some of my chapter's participants ("friends" they are) are still getting together for rides I see, but they generally all live in a cluster about an hour or two north of me. Truth is not as many ride as used to, but still a half dozen or so. I'll admit, been thinking that if Spring...- CrystalPistol

Brake pedal is in awkward possession
With Floorboards, a brake pedal always worked best with a "heel rest" I found. You ride with feet on the floor board, you can still jump on the brake if need be in a hurry, but if anticipating a slow down or stop and wanting to better control application pressure, placing the heel on a higher...- CrystalPistol
