CSC Retro Kit Install

[rhino65]

Took my 02 with 09 CSC conversion to Neihaus Cycles in Litchfield IL. for the retro kit from CSC. Install went good. They found that the rear fenders were actually lose. Installed bushings that apparently were never installed originally with kit. They said side panels now line up perfectly along with several other improvements. Bad part is they also found my steering head bearings are bad. Actually the bearing is notched. I felt this but thought it was in design of the rake kit since it would catch with handlebars straight ahead.

So they will have it another few days more to replace them as well. In guessing the worn bearings is why it seemed hard to keep turned at highway speeds in corners. Can't wait to get it back

Are you getting the tapered bearings?

I've got the 6.5 degree EZ steer kit which was installed at time of kit. Don't know if dealer is installing tapered or not. They have built over 1200 trikes. I assume they will install what's best. This is my 1st trike. Bought it last November
