Just bought a 2008 Road Glide/Lehman Trike.

I've been riding motorcycles since I was in my 20's. Now I'm in my 60's and trying to get used to 3 wheels. Steering is rough though. I think I need a Steering Damper.

Got our 05 with Lehman the first week of July. It will take some getting used to. The best advice I found on steering is to lock your elbow of the arm pushing out. It REALLY helps. Also, the bike will shake it's head at every opportunity. A damper may help, but you will get used to it.

good luck with the new Trike , I had to put a rake kit and a super brace on my wing just to be able to stear it. Now thinking maybe should have sprung for the IRS set up.

Hello Bock and welcome to the website from the U P of Michigan.

>>>I think I need a Steering Damper<<<I've always thought the RG would make a great Trike Conversion since it has the frame mounted fairing. I do know those that started without a 'rake kit' and then added one, said it was like adding power steering.

EVERY trike should have a rake kit.
