trike or no?

[steelman0933]

Have an 08 goldwing that had a new roadtrike kit installed when the bike was new. Would like to hear from some owners on the advantage of raking this bike and what degree would I need ? thanks very much for the info in advance

In my opinion the rake is a must. I have a 4 and 1/2 degree on mine but some are going with a option of a 6 degree. I was told that the 6 degree rake will give you finger tip turning. But was also told that you loose some of the feel of the road.

My 4 and 1/2 still turns good but will take effort but I feel the road very well. There is a lot of people on here that has a lot more experence than I and are very helpful.JMO

I am assuming that you mean Motor Trike Kit,,, A 4.5 rake is more than enough for it as it is a short coupled kit.
