Ive watched your build videos 3 times now. Im so impressed with this DNA kit, my swingarm and axle is due here in Leduc Alberta Monday and Im putting it on a 2019 Sportster 48 Special. Thanks for the play by play. 👍
Hey Dan I have the Frankenstein trike kit on my electraglide and I love it it is completely stable ! I have been riding for 5 years no problems just my experience I recommend Frankenstein
I am glad to hear that. Sometimes I regretted selling it but I had 2 and my wife said one had to go. So remind her to occasionally grease the differential. There are 2 grease zerts one on the outside of it and the other accesses through one off the slots on the hub. Anyway I am glad she still loves it. Tell her to ride safe...
@@danharrell6200 I had it painted a deep red last year,added a fork dampner, and put some wider handlebars on it. I have all the parts to put it back to two wheels as well. Thanks for the info on the differential
I recently built this DNA trike conversion on my 2019 Sportster 48. Gotta say your video series was invaluable. The only thing I'm having problems with is getting the brakes to work. I ordered the smaller callipers as you suggested but Would like to hear any secrets or tips you have for that.
Hi Dan. I'm doing the same conversion on my 1998 sporty. Looks like I will need to swap sides on the rear diff like you did to center the axels properly. How did you get the center section off the axle tubes? Any help is greatly appreciated!
You know at first I didn't like the front wheel shake that i noticed under 15mph. Not dangerous but concerning. I aired down the rear tires to 15psi and it rode smoother and the shake was gone. Handles great. I am about to convert a triumph America and will post the videos of the convention. I am sold on the DNA trike kite. Order from Rebecca and let her know i referred her. Her information is at the end of the video. Good luck
Hey Dan what problems did you have with your brakes I put one of them conversion kits on and I can’t get the bike to stop even with the two cylinder pistons Or do you have stopping problems that the breakdown grab that well
Sure, remove the hex screws that hold the hub together. Separate the hub then Remove the pulley, axle and inner differential gear assembly. Near the narrow end of the hub is a hex screw. Remove it. Then I stood up the hub and used a rubber mallet and hammered the press fit hub off the axle covering. You can also use a dead blow hammer or a large ball peon hammer and a block of wood. Work your way around it to work it off. Once both are removed, switch hubs, line up the hex screw hole on the hub with the axle cover. Hammer it back on and line up the screw and hole. Reassemble. If you are doing this because of the left wheel hub is too far to the left when the pulley and belt are lined up, you can always add a wheel spacer to the right side to equal both sides. Try that first and if you are happy with it, it will save you the work of switching the hub around. Let me know how it works
@@danharrell6200 thanks for your help dan,I done what you said,quite hard going doing it myself but got it done quicker than I thought,now everything is sitting absolutely perfect,well worth the effort,
@@bobbycarson5574 I am so glad to hear this, the only other problem that caused me grief was the brakes. I received a beautiful chrome brake caliper with 4 pistons. Did not work because there is not enough pressure to work on them. If this is what you got, do not install them. If you do you can’t rerun them. Call your sales person and get the 2 piston calipers instead.
@@danharrell6200 when my kit arrived one of the callipers was damaged,they are just gineric copys anyway,so I got another pair,slightly different design,but they are 2 pot and they fit,the only other issue i have is the exhaust,I've got the originals on with mids,I might just add a section into the rear header to bring the muffler under the axle
