My first trike

Post by Trike the road »

Hi everyone I'm a new to trikes,
I bought my VMax from a good friend
It's been off the road since 2013.
I've just got it on the road,and it's got a shocking front wheel wobble.
And I'm not alone reading some of the posts
On the form.
When I took it for the MOT I didn't have any problems, with wobble at all, I checked the tyre pressure it was very low on the back tyre's so I upped the pressure probably put too much in so at the moment I'm letting air out hopefully I will get to the right pressure.
I'll keep you updated.

Don't run with the factory tyre pressures, try lowering them front and rear.
Dose it only do it at low speed, most do.
I tried to be normal once, worst two minutes of my life.

Also pop along to the new members section and do a intro about yourself. It's good manners even if we don't have any

I would call it a 'building'! Some are made to live in, make things in or store things LOL!
