Has anyone fitted one of these to their Trike???, Did it make any difference.

I believe these are more for the 2 wheelers not trikes..

I understand that, I figure it can't hurt.

I understand that, I figure it can't hurt.

The rear suspension on the Triglide is a whole different ball game vs its 2 wheel brothers. I'm a pretty agressive rider at times and never once did the 2010 Triglide I used to own do anything that would indicate I needed a suspension bandaid like mentioned above.

Now my 06 Ultra which is 2 wheels is a whole nother story. I applied some power exiting a corner and it got a little loose. I installed a product called the missing link which tightened the rear suspension right up, it solved the loose feeling I had experienced before.

I am running a Frankenstein Kit, It uses a modified swingarm so I am assuming that there would still be some flex.

I figure it cant do any harm.

Im using the Progressive link on my 08 Roadglide trike. It really helps take the added forces from the trike rear end that push forward onto the front motor mount on the 08 and older touring models with the single motor mount.

09 HD changed the front motor mount bushing setup to 2 bushing and with that change it added more stiffness to the front motor mount so there was less movement from the torque forces from the rear.

To answer your question, would the link would be a benefit to a 09 or newer trike? The only way to know would be to install one and report back if your bike is a 09 or newer. I think it would be a much smaller benefit for the 09 and up models to keep the transmission and engine from moving due to the torque forces from the rear

Mine is an 07 So this should make a difference then.

Yes it will. Make sure to check both the front engine mount bushing and rear isolator bushings. It works best if all of them are new and your alignment is correct

I am having new mouts fitted tomorrow so all should be good, Hopefully I will motice a difference.

You'll have to let us know how well it works once you have had time to put on some miles.

Will do, I have a trip planned for the end of next month so will definitly be able to see what a differenc it makes.

The most noticeable improvement will be steering response.
