The effects you describe are perfectly normal for a trike ie ploughing when powering around corners you won't get rid of that ever. Just use the biggest tyre you can find to get the biggest amount of rubber on the road. |

Once you get used to it you don't even notice it! And it will be much less marked at higher speeds.

thanks for all you comments.i know i will get use to it in time.but it don't fill right compared to my old 550. witch you could ride one handed in to bends. i have checked the trail and its about 5 1/2".when checking other sites they say.alter the head stock by about 5degrees. or alter the forks by making them longer ie springer/girder or fit leading link.some say alter the triple trees.to give about a 2" trail. i will still ride it but will be looking at different alterations. terry
