Suspension?

[Gunsmoke06]

Howdy, I recently bought a 96 Goldwing 1500 SE Trike with a Champion kit. Any idea what type suspension it has, independent or straight axle? I can't get down to look because can't get back up.

I would bet straight but don't know for sure.

I'm going to say it has a straight axle. One way to check would be with a truck inspection mirror if you know anyone who has one. I know how that feels when you get down to check something and have one heck of a time trying to get back up.

I thank ya'll for your replies, I'm betting that's right. Figured it's straight, hoping it's independent. I just started riding a trike so its all new to me.

Hey Gunsmoke,
Your Champion Trike is for sure a straight axle, but it is still a very well-built trike. Good to have you join us here!

I had a 1500 Goldwing with a Champion kit for years.The ride isn't bad at all the handling is great.
