  1. Steering head torque check

    Had a Motor Trike conversion done on my 2016 Rocket and getting a terrible front-end wobble when accelerating. Motor Trike says I need to check the torque on the steering head top bolt and lower bolt. How big a job is it to do and is there any special tool needed?

    Steering Head Bearing Check/Adjustment

    I was feeling a click when I'd come to a stop and then let off the front brake. I wasn't sure if it was a sticky caliper or the steering head bearing/adjustment.

    Steering Damper Report

    NHK ODM 3000 E is the family of Damper I'm playing around with. I finally had a chance to get out and ride since my exhaust came back. I wish I could say... WOW WHAT A DIFFERENCE. I rode with set at full tight, 4 clicks in, and 0 clicks in (7 total positions, 6 clicks). Full loose to full...

    Tyre Profile

    Hi has anyone tried a 140 profile on the front of their Rocket instead of the standard 150 profile? Just wondering if there is any improvement in the steering without affecting high speed stability. Cheers Marco
