Casarva Harley Dyna Low Rider FXDL IRS trike
We were commissioned to built this Casarva Harley Davidson Dyna trike by a retired disabled Firefighter.
The conversion has the Casarva Belt drive independent rear suspension bolt on trike conversion fitted with Casarva differential mated to the original pulley and custom half shafts.
Mudguards painted in the same livery as the bike.
Silver 5 spoke alloys match the original front wheel nicely. They have 225 50 17 tyres. And we fitted the mudguards with LED stop tail and indicators at the back and marker lights to the front. The trike has all new suspension with the correctly rated springs on 12 inch adjustable coil overs and a Casarva anti-roll bar in EN43 spring steel.
The cradle was fitted up and aligned by laser and then once fabrication was complete removed, blasted, zinc primed and powder coated to match the bikes’ frame.
New rear disk brakes perform the braking duties and a stainless trigger handbrake is fitted for parking up.
Front forks were raked to make the much steering lighter.
The new Casarva stainless steel dual exhaust system exit either side underneath with mirror polished heatshield and an engine mounted mechanical reverse gearbox with electronic cut-out was fitted to the offside of the engine.
As a bike the engine is totally rubber mounted. we need to calm this down also we make and fit a solid rear engine mount.
The customer specified a tall sissy bar so we made a tall “top pocketed” sissy bar in stainless steel which is fitted with a supportive mid-back pad for the the pillion. Then new Kuryakyn mini footboards were fitted front and back
What is Independent Rear Suspension (IRS) on a trike?
Casarva IRS (independent Rear Suspension) trikes handle better and and are more comfortable to ride than those with a solid axles. The tyres stay planted in the road surface giving you maximum control if the road gets a little tricky because each side has its own suspension system which are connected by an anti-roll bar made in spring steel. This assists the shock absorbers in keeping the rear end planted, reduces rider shock and assists with steering.
The drive line, irrespective of being shaft, chain or belt driven, has a differential which allows the wheels to turn independently of each other via half shafts which have been tailor made to each trike and there are options on the track width and wheelbase length to make sure that the trike is set up to be the best it can be. Tyres and wheel size are selected to works best with each trike – one size definitively does not fit all not fit all.
