I started riding my Tri Glide in July, so I’m still rather new to trikes. Do trike conversions such as Lehman, Hannigan and others require the same steering effort as the Tri Glide? Does the Gold Wing, BMW LT and others have more rake for lighter steering?
 
Most of your aftermarket trike kits come with more rake than the stock Tri Glide, now you can ride down to Papa Zooks shop and have him install a different set of trees to make it steer better. One of the local riders here Posse Rider has a set and swears by them.

I am running Papa Zook's raked trees also. And I swear by them.
 
BikerG, there are several threads pinned to the top of the TriGlide forum with multiple reviews on my rake kit. Also my Cut N Shoot Customs eBay page has 744 positive reviews most of which are for rake kits.
