    Left High Beam Not Working 09 GL1800

    If you do not find any corrosion on the wire connectors and the left bulb has a good ground, you could install a jumper wire from the right light wire to the left light wire at the bulb connector.

    H7 Low Beam Bulb

    Mike, as long as the front is apart you should think about installing a LED turn signal flasher. Because if and when you install rear Leds the bike will be ready for them. Plus, they also work with stock bulbs.

    H7 Low Beam Bulb

    I agree on Electrical Connection Leds. I have installed them in 3 of my Gl1800's. Here is a photo of them turned on in my current trike. Along with Pathfinder Leds in the back and front fog/running lights. :)

    Floor boards

    I just purchased the Champion Accent Panels for my 2012 and there is a square metal tube support that bolts to the frame where the main stand was attached that has mounting pads that are fastened to the inside of the boards when they are installed.

    Mid engine trike info

    Not sure on a trike but I have built a couple of mid engine sand rails and did not care for the engine noise or heat and went back to rear engine design. A trike woukd be hard to build unless it is 16-20 feet long. :)

    Progressive Or Traxxion Fork Springs

    I would not worry about max because their springs are far superior to progressive springs as they give a great ride and you can dissable the anti-dive valve with them. The progressive and stock have the same weak design.

    Using the reverse motor

    I use the reverse often and have never had any problems with it. The only problem a few quys have had was reverse would stop working when backing up a steep hill. This is because after many miles of operation using reverse the cable will stretch and it will not engage it all the way. This is a...

    Progressive Or Traxxion Fork Springs

    The harsh ride was most likely the springs bottoming out, But is you had the front brakes applies this will lock the fork tube which will ne like riding on a jack hammer. Your best bet is to get a set of Traxxion springs and diss able the anti-dive valve.

    Progressive Or Traxxion Fork Springs

    I tried Progressive springs, and they are almost the same as the stock springs. They did not add any additional lift to the bike and would bottom out as quick as the stock springs which are also a style design. I took them out a week later and installed the Traxxion springs and the ride height...

    Champion IRS Banging Noise on Bumps

    Sounds like the bar froze up and twisted the brackets off from it.

    Champion IRS Banging Noise on Bumps

    Check the anti-sway bar and end links. These bars have been known to freeze up and break the end links. I replaced my bar two years ago with a new one from Champion with the new style that comes with grease fittings to fix this problem. Also check the shock settings to make sure they are not...
