New Traxxion believer

[Slygrin]

Just got the Traxxion full Monty installed yesterday. I was a little apprehensive with the cost, but after just a few mile I knew I made the right decision. Huge improvement from low speed figure eights to high speed smoothness. It's what it should have came from the factory like. I kind of wish now I would have done it right after I bought the bike.

Did mine at 1000 miles. Best money I spent on the wing.

After 30K I up-graded a few years back. The difference is unbelieveable!

[Slygrin]

I only have about 120 miles on it since the upgrade, most of it freeway. Looking forward to getting it out in some twisties as soon as I can.

I am probably going to have to do the same soon. Paul Bihm let me ride his in the parking lot at the last get together, and I went across the parking lot fairly quick and was gonna turn at a light pole, it turned so quick I thought I was gonna hit the pole! It turned very fast and input was almost effortless. You can definately feel those smooth bearings and triple tree. I wish I wouldn't have rode it, there goes 3K!

Congrats on the new suspension. Here is my two cents. While it is a nice suspension " I have had it on Two 1800's" a person can get real close to having what it is, for about a third of the money, with Buckskins or Rockys lower tree, Monotubes or different springs, all balls and work on the back shock as well with either a progressive or have racetech rear shock. I have had two wings with such components in them as well. And for MY OPINION and MY MONEY the later is the way to go, a third of the cost and I would say 90 to 95% of the performance of Traxxion. So it is up to a guy to decide. I hope you enjoy your new suspension, it sure does make a BIG difference on this HEAVY COUCH BIKE! Any improvement in the suspensions helps a lot!

with Rick, the way I ride the Rocky setup is all I need, so I am removing my AK20's, and going back to stock forks with the Monotubes, and a fork brace, and a new rear shock/spring off a 2014 .

Having been around Traxxion for some time, I suppose I never fully appreciated it until I Triked my bike. Now I see how well it does work in smoothing out the ride. I do remember even Traxxion stating at first it was of no use on a Trike, but that did change with time and experience, now that it is on mine and the bike is now a Trike, I do enjoy the smoother ride. Just seems to work very well in this application.

I wish I could afford it. But like others, I have done the rocky tree, tapered bearings and a fork brace. The results are outstanding. I may go with monotubes, but I will try springs first. As for the shock - Traxx seems to be best/cheapest replacement ATM. Just need to save my pennies...

I recently had to go back to a stock bike. I totaled my old one. While it's a great bike it's almost unrideable I have yet to put the components on the new bike. I have the full Rocky setup and before that race tech. Any upgrade is an improvement but you don't really fully appreciate it till it's gone

[OhioWinger]

Slygrin, congrats on the new setup! I wouldn't want a Wing without Traxxion.
