It sure hurts to admit it

Well like the title says i hate it when im wrong.<br />
Here is the story. The local dealership puts on this hog leg they call a steering dampener on. You can see that thing from 50 ft away. <br />
Terrible as it may seem i took it out thursday my god it shook like a dog #$%&$%# peach seeds and they told me i need a new front tire. After a bit of arm wrestling i agreed on a bridgestone battle axe bt014<br />
a massive tire once i loose this weight i can probably be buried in it.<br />
They put it on spin balance it then the hour long process to assemble the front end. Its done 50 mph i take hands of the bars and it tracks like a slot car. I guess i will leave that ugly sob on there <br />
the bike never rode this good.

I think it had something to do with the extra thrust those six pipes put out. They lift the front end a bit and throw off the front wheel trail-variance vector attitude...thingy. Just ask UB...

Sometimes we have to say that we learned something today. I try to keep an open mind most of the time, but everyonce in awhile we have to say boy thats not what I expected. Congrats on the smooth ride.

 

[JJTRIKER]

Hey zook do you think i should point them down to correct that downward thrust lol

 

[Papa Zook]

I would....then Id flip em 180 degrees and wheelie the thing when you get bored.

 

[JJTRIKER]

But ub you said i already had to much hangin out or were you talking about my belly lol

[JJTRIKER]

Who did your trike and what brand of conversion is your trike.
It's a beauty!!
Is the front end raked?

 

[JJTRIKER]

Lady triker it is a champion kit. The guy that built it has passed on to 3 wheel heaven. He was quite a master builder. I bought the trike from ca's trikes in lebanon mo and he says he can build one and probably can he also is a master.

Hey ub those are good shots. I think i was still about to wet myself winning those two awards.

Those pictures are GREAT, UB! the graphics show up beautifully, and obviously it is a good thing JJ was standing behind the trike--based on his comments above

 

[JJTRIKER]
