I have been told I can move the trunk back so there is more room for the passenger seating. I couldn't find it in the archives. Is this possible and where would I find the info on how to do it. I have a 98 wing.

When I had my 94 triked I had them move the trunk back 2 inches. They used 2 1/4 x 1 inch flat stock which bolted to the original rails and then bolted the trunk to the new rails.

One problem you will have is there will now be a big gap behind the seat. While my bike was being triked I took my seat in to a local upholster and had them add 2 inches to the rear of the seat and recover it.

John Stucky of Three Wheel Int. Has brackets for this. You do loose the use of the helmet locks though. John installs Lehman trike kits In Grand Rapids MI. (616-453-0588) His brackets are like mentioned above.
Note Chris Chrome does not have them. I live about 20 miles from Chris Chrome.

Helmet holders can also be extended.
