Welcome to Trike-Talk-....Greg, With 3 wheels on the ground there isn't many pot holes your gonna miss...With 2 wheels you can glide around them.... Like every thing in life there are compromises to be made...

Welcome to Trike Talk

Trikes are not as forgiving as 2 wheels, However there are mods u can do

What is your ride?

+1 on the coil over spring shocks makes a big difference. I went with the Bitbu Shocks. Also 22-25lbs in the rear and 40lbs in the front. At least that has what worked for me.

DK Custom is a great place to start. I have a comfort lift kit on the 14 triglide. I run 22 lbs in the rear tires, 36 in the front, and 30 in the shocks with 2 up. Jim
