Tomorrow morning !

Way to go Snake. Congratulations, I bet you'll be on pins and needles tell it comes in. Where are you getting it from? I know there is Trikes by Dennis around Mattoon, but I actually think He's in Sullivan. Well any way good luck.ThumbUp
 
Snake, I know how you feel. Orderd my XL kit last month. It is due to ship on 1-17. Now I just have to get the trailer out from under 2 foot of snow to get the wing to the dealer. Because I sure am not riding it in this crap.
 
It's official !!!!!!pepper I just about passed out this morning when they said they had one in STOCK ! They told me to bring my bike over ASAP . I have to wait until this snow melts . Hopefully I can get it there next week ???:)

</div>Congratulations! I'm new to Trikes, but when I made up my mind it was time, I didn't even consider a Harley, and I've been a Harley nut for a long time. I still have my 2003 Sportster. I was told the CSC conversion was one of the best and it just so happened that I ended up with a pristine 2003 Goldwing CSC with only 16,000 miles. I still get a big smile every time I go into the garage and lay eyes on it.<img src="images/smilies/thumbup.gif" border="0" alt="" title="ThumbUp" class="inlineimg" />
 
Forgot to mention....I went with the 6 deg rake.

Snake you are going to think you screwed up by going with 6 degree instead of 4.5 degree when you first ride it. I had my 2010 GL 1800 triked in april 2013 with the CSC Cobra XL and also went with the 6 degree rake. I rode it 110 miles, from the dealership home and for the first 50 or so miles i kicked my butt for going with the 6 degree because it seemed squirrely to me. By the time I got home I had gotten used to it and and glad I did go with 6 degree. I can ride all day in the twisty's and my shoulders never bother me from steering it. You're going to wonder why you waited so long before triking it.

I've been on a few 4 1/2 rake kits up & down the hwy but not the 6. Rode a 6 rake in a jc penny parking lot once. Yep it's going to be interesting to see how this all pans out for me !!
 
I had my 2004 Wing triked a couple of years ago with a CSC Cobra XL kit and love it. I considered which rake to get and decided on the 6 degree and am very glad I did. I love the design of the CSC kit and especially like the very large trunk. I had it installed by Bob Morton in Louisville and he did a great job. CSC has great customer support. I also am fortunate enough to own a 2007 Ultra, but since I've converted my Wing to a trike, I hardly ride the Harley because I just stay off the trike. You will love it

I do recommend that you purchase the upgraded braking system. It looks great and stops you on a dime. Have fun.
 
The snow is just about gone here. I'm planning on taking the wing to the honda shop in the morning so they can start on her new face lift !!
 
Snake: You got some really accurate comments Hog Wild a few replies back in this thread about at first it will probably feel a little squirrely when you start to ride it. About 6 months ago I had the CSC Cobra XL with a 6 degree rake installed my 2001 GL1800. Because it was evening rush hour when I picked my new trike up from the installer, I never thought about it having a super quick steering response and immediately shot out into the adjoining highway with traffic going at least 60 MPH. Man, I was all over the place and thought I had really messed up triking my bike. After I calmed down and put my heart back inside my chest, I smartened up and took it easy going home. After about 300 miles I got really relaxed and comfortable. Today, all I can say is take it easy until you get used to it and you'll love it as much as I do. Have fun! ;)
