I really like the trike. I have looked at the 1800 VTX, and they won't sit right for me, but, I could do miles on the Wing!  |

I miss my Valkyrie, but within the next 2 years got to have both knees replaced. So the trike and the little Suzuki M50 does me well. I've modded the M50 and pretty peppy for a 805 cc.

Hey Brother, good to hear from ya!!
Nice lookin' rides Bro
(I've always liked the look of the 1500 trikes better than the 1800.)
Hope y'all are doin' well. Send us some pics of GOOD ridin' weather if ya got any. 3+ inches of snow here in the valley  Nice hearing from you. It already had the 6 degree rake on it. Took all the smog stuff off it, hanged the timing belts, added a 4 degree trigger wheel and a bunch more. Runs like a dream. I got to change out the ICM sensor on the intake manifold on the water side. No big deal. Kinda surges sometimes when it idles. The Valkyrie has the same sensor and when you have adjusted all the carbs and it still surges it is possible the sensor is bad. David |

Not looking good out here in the water. David |

I noticed you have the wind wings on the mirrors do they do a good job and are they worth the money? Also why the tire size change,how did it change handling? I wanted rear wheels like those but I have the 4 lug wheels and couldn't find any to fit ! My trike is very similar to yours . I like that red ,mine is black so it is never clean just dusty. Hope this posts I've already typed it once and when I posted it it vanished into thin air !

They do very well on the mirrors. I had 235/60/15 and went to a 205/65/15. On mine the run a Ford rearend that is cut down. The wide tires seems to dance back and forth on back roads. Even rode better with the narrower tires. Doesn't fight each other now. I had BF Goodrich and the new tires are Dunlop signature series. David |
