  The Epiphany of the Trikes. Words and Photos by Jim Foreman   During a beautiful and warm SoCal afternoon, tragedy was bound to strike.  While sending volleyballs over the net for my daughter’s team to return, a long, high ball was on a trajectory several feet above my head.  Not being one to let it go I jumped high to return it.  The return was successful, but the return to Terra Firma was not.  That moment began a six week recovery of a broken foot and an eye-opening epiphany on motorbikes, trikes and what riding means to me.

We have received numerous reports of severely damaged ’06 and newer Harley-Davidson 6-speed transmissions. In each case the main bearing was worn out ...
