Mystery fuse

The Triking started to show an ignition light and the battery was running low which it hasn't before. I have an alternator tester and this was not showing any charge coming through so I thought I had found the issue BUT..... Whilst revving the engine to do the test I noticed sparks coming from an in...

Re: Fitting seats

I did just raise the front of the seats with wood, fixed by screwing up through the floorpan. I left the seats resting on the wood and they don't move. I did screw studs into the seat bases to stop any forward movement, but I'm not sure I needed to. I left them removable as I wanted to store the ton...

Re: It's TT time again! 3 Wheeling in Worcestershire/Shropshire.

I'll be there Paul!

Do we need to register with anyone? Do you know where the stops are this year yet?

Cheers

Rear brake disc

New tyres all fitted and wheels back on. Great to have the Triking back on the road for this spectacular weather!! Whilst re-fitting the back wheel I noticed that the rear brake pads are only connecting to part of the disc. There is no adjustment on the caliper holding plate to correct this. Any ide...

Grease type

I am finally getting around to putting the Triking back on the road after the broken spoke incident last year and decided to treat myself to 3 new tyres. Whilst I have all 3 wheels off I thought I might as well re grease the front wheel bearings and the rear shaft drive splines. The "manual" just sa...

Re: Tyres

Thanks but already investigated that and spoked wheels can't be done. I'm stuck with using bike tyres unless I can fit a slim car tyre to a bike rim - is that possible?

Re: Tyres

I agree guys that going for a car rear wheel would be sensible but unfortunately the cost is prohibitive. I have a spoked Guzzi wheel which can't be exchanged and my swing arm has insufficient clearance (maybe because a Jackal was the donor bike?) and the cost of all this is huge! Also I am totally ...

Tyres

After some more advice please....... Had a spoke break on my last outing and as I need wheel and tyre off to fix the spoke, I thought I would treat myself to new tyres. On the front I have shortlisted Avon Safety Milage Mk2's or Metzler Block Ks - comments please. The back is proving very difficult....
