Air shocks

[ksynetrike]

I have a 2004 GW with a motor trike kit. The air pressure in the air shocks will go up and down without me ever touching the up and down button. Anybody know whats going on? Thanks in advance.

Constantly or randomly? If randomly, how often?

Karl, I am sure someone will come along and try to help you answer your questions soon that is familiar with your brand of trike.

Mine go up and down 3~4lbs just depending on the outside heat. No worry.

Funny you should ask... I dropped my 2008 GL1800 trike (MotorTrike Adventure kit) off at the shop yesterday morning and asked the tech this very same thing.... he said it was perfectly normal... the nature of the beast. He told me in tech terms why it does this but my brain summarized it as being the system is compensating for the variables of the ride...road surface, air, weight....

After I set it, the gauge MIGHT jump UP another 3 points while out riding but never drops below the number I set it at.

Mine is random, I can set it at 14 later I look and it might be 25. Then I push the down button and it might drop to 13 instantly. It seem very strange and can go up or down by 8 or 10 when I look away.

MotorTrike’s contact info.... ask for Richard for best consulting. He is a pretty busy guy so give him some time to respond if you can’t talk with him immediately and have to leave a message.

There's your problem, you keep changing it. Set it and leave it. Read post #5. It's and automatic system compensating for variable conditions.
