The picture below left, shows the wheel holders set up for touring bikes with full length shocks
(Electra Glides etc.) The one at right is set up for lowered bikes (Street Glide and others).
Notice how the curve of the left one is toward the front of the leg, and the curve on the right one
is toward the back? This small change can make a big difference in how stable the bike may be.
If you are having trouble getting the stability you need, you can remove the 2 small and the one
large bolt that connects the wheel holders to the legs, and swap them from one side of the bike
to the other. This will reverse the direction of the wheel holders and keep the wheels aligned
properly.
Again, this is only needed if you are not getting the stability we describe above.
Below is a picture that shows the angle of the actuator when the wheels are set properly. Notice
the bottom of the cylinder (silver, inside the black legs) is further forward than the top! Yours
should look like something like this. Also
notice that the floorboard is level. We have
seen one bike that had floorboards that leaned
forward, which would RUIN the geometry
required here. Please verify that your
floorboards are level!
If you are still not getting the stability we
describe here, please call us, and we will try to
determine why not (407-834-5007).
