Goldwing GL1100 '83 Aspencade Trike Rear Suspension

[steelhorseangel]

Hi riders & wrenchers!

I've recently bought GL1100 '83 Aspencade Trike, here in the UK.
The PO has actually dressed this 1100 up with full 1200 plastics!

Sadly the rear Showa air shocks are leaking and hard to find here in the UK.

* There is a dangerous part on the trike, the frame is 'bottoming out'
and hitting the swing arm!

I'm buying some progressives and don't know what length of shocks
I should use for the trike? The local shock absorber maker Hagon
is confused at the correct size for comfort/safe rebound without 'bottoming out!'

Any advice greatly appreciated Wingers!


Regards and sincere thanks!

Angie
