D. INSTALLING THE LEHMAN SWINGARM

1. Stick a straight rod through the swingarm pivot on the motorcycle frame. Use a spiritlevel on the rod between the frame rails on the bike and shim under the center standuntil level. Locate a place on the frame under the seat to use as a reference point thatis the same as the (level reading) at the swingarm pivot. Place shims between theframe and the level if needed to match it to the pivot reading.

2. Install the rubber drive shaft cover on the front of the swingarm.3. Start the Lehman swingarm pins into the motorcycle frame. Use anti-seize compound

or a light film of grease on the threads and on the end of the bearings.4. Install the Lehman swingarm and use Snap On A26 Drag Link Socket or similar to

tighten the pins. Center the swingarm in the motorcycle frame. Make sure the pins arefully seated in the bearings.

5. Move the swingarm up and down several times to make sure it is free. Check theclearance to the sides and tighten the pivot bolts so there is no lateral play in the ballbearings.

** CAUTION ** CARE MUST BE TAKEN NOT TO OVER TIGHTEN THE PIVOT BOLTS. THE

FRAME MAY BE DISTORTED AND STRESSED. TIGHTEN THE BOLTSENOUGH TO SEAT THEM IN THE BEARINGS, THEN ADJUST TO ELIMINATESIDE PLAY.

7. Remove the rubber grommets (2 on

each side) from the frame above theswingarm pivot bolts. Clean the paintfrom the motorcycle frame around theswingarm pins. Clean an area largeenough for the frame support washers tocontact bare metal.

8. Loosely install the frame supportwashers, cups and lock nuts. The bevelon the washer is next to the lower frametube. Check the clearance between thewasher and the frame.

Page 8: Gl1500 LI1062 Mar14, 03 PARK BRAKE 25. Honda Goldwing GL1500 GTL - 14 Mar. 03 Lehman Trikes Inc. - 3-Instruction Part # LI1062 ... Honda Goldwing GL1500 GTL ...

Honda Goldwing GL1500 GTL - 14 Mar. 03

Lehman Trikes Inc. - 8 - Instruction Part # LI1062

9. It will vary (usually more at the bottom). There must be at least 0.002" and nomore than 0.030" clearance all aroundthe washer when the lock nut pushes thecup against the washer. If there is noclearance, use a thin shim between thesmall end of the cup and the frame. Machine, file, or lap the small end of thecup if the clearance is too great.

10. In some cases the Gold Wing frame is not flat enough to achieve the minimumclearance of 0.002" to the support washer without exceeding the maximum of 0.030"somewhere else around the washer. In these situations the adhesive will not bridgethe wider clearance and still provide a strong bond.

11. It is essential that minimum/maximum clearances are achieved with the supportwasher wedged out flat against the cup. The washers may be hand fitted as follows.

12. Mark the washer at 12:00 o'clock with the chamfered edge located over the lowerframe tube.

13. Install the cup and use the Honda nut to hold the cup against the washer.14. Wedge the washer away from the frame so it is flat against the cup.15. Measure and record the

clearance to the frame at 12, 3,6, and 9 o'clock.

16. Remove the nut, cup, and washer. Machine, file orcarefully grind the washer onthe frame side to achieve thesame clearance all around.

** NOTE **

IF THE CLEARANCE IS AS FOLLOWS: TAKE OFF

12 O'CLOCK 0.010" 0.060" AT 12 O'CLOCK3 O'CLOCK 0.030" 0.030" AT 3 O'CLOCK6 O'CLOCK 0.060" NONE AT 6 O’CLOCK9 O’CLOCK 0.030" 0.030 AT 9 O'CLOCK17. If the clearance exceeds 0.030”, machine, file or lap the small end of the cup to

achieve clearance between 0.002” and 0.030” all the way around the washer.

Page 9: Gl1500 LI1062 Mar14, 03 PARK BRAKE 25. Honda Goldwing GL1500 GTL - 14 Mar. 03 Lehman Trikes Inc. - 3-Instruction Part # LI1062 ... Honda Goldwing GL1500 GTL ...

Honda Goldwing GL1500 GTL - 14 Mar. 03

Lehman Trikes Inc. - 9 - Instruction Part # LI1062

18. When the clearance is within limits, use LOCTITE 330 adhesive to bond the washer tothe motorcycle frame. Apply the adhesive and install the washer, cup and lock nut.

19. Use small screwdrivers or similar aswedges to hold the washer away from theframe against the cup.

20. Let the adhesive cure 24 hours with thewedges in place as you continue theconversion.

21. When the adhesive is cured, remove thewedges and check again for full contact. Remove the cups. Identify them so they goback on the same side.

Lehman Trikes Inc. - 10 - Instruction Part # LI1062

22. Machine, file or lap 0.002" to 0.005”from the small end of the cups toachieve proper crush.

23. Use LOCTITE 242 Thread Locker onthe lock nuts. Hold the pivot bolts while tightening the lock nuts to 150 foot pounds (useHonda Pivot Lock Nut Wrench 07908-469001.) The torque on this wrench is multipliedso torque value from the 3/8 square is 135 foot pounds.)

24. Touch up any areas around the washers where the paint was taken off. The cup andwasher must also be painted to prevent rust.

25. Install the rubber grommets back in the frame.

If MIG welding equipment and qualified personnel are available, the washers may bewelded to the Gold Wing frame.

** WARNING **WHEN WELDING IN THE SWINGARM AREA, REMEMBER THAT THE FUEL TANKON THE GOLDWING IS BELOW THE RIDER SEAT. ENSURE THAT THE BATTERY

IS DISCONNECTED.

** CAUTION **THE MATERIAL IN THE MOTORCYCLE FRAME IS VERY THIN IN THIS AREA ANDCAN BE EASILY BURNED THROUGH. MIG WELDING IS RECOMMENDED FOR

LOWEST HEAT AND BEST CONTROL.

1. Make sure the frame is free of paint and clean.2. Wedge the washer against the cup.3. Weld about five 3/4" beads, evenly spaced around the washer. We do not recommend

welding all around the washer.

**WARNING**To meet DOT and MOT requirements one of the following must be installed on all Lehman Trikes

(stock grab handles, stock grab strap or Lehman supplied grab handles). Product liability will notbe available for dealers not installing passenger grab handles. Please contact Lehman Trikes if

you require replacement grab handles.

** NOTE **WE RECOMMEND THAT YOU FIT THE GTL BODY (STEPS 9 TO 17) PRIOR TO

PAINTING.1. Identify the wires to the tail/brake lights on the original wiring harness. Plug extension

harnesses into the originals.2. Remove the inner panels at the back of each wheel well (5 screws)3. Feed the extension harnesses into the light pockets through the drilled hole in the

bottom of the pocket. You will have to remove the plug off the harness first.4. Install the taillights from inside the fender. Put the flat end into the recess at the side of

the inner trunk and rock the curved end into the cavity. Position the light in the bodyopening.

5. Reinstall the plug on the harness and connect the electrical plugs. Neatly coil theexcess harness under the tour pack and fasten away from any heat sources or movingparts that could cause damage to the harness. Fasten harnesses to the tabs attachedto the side of the trunk to keep them from getting damaged.

6. Align the inner panel over the studs on the light. Install the original nuts and 5 screwsand solder in the license plate light wires where most convenient in the harness.

7. Connect the wires in the trunk on the right side to the wires in the trunk door. Connectthe wires off of the license light to the wires in the trunk door. Solder and insulate theconnections and install the light with 2 screws. With the fibreglass body it does notmatter which way you connect the wires.

8. Position the holder covers and passenger footrests and start the bolts into the bikeframe.

9. Mark and cut out the top lip of the holder cover to clear the frame cup. Trim off thebosses on the inside front to clear the cup and frame support washer.

10. Temporarily install the holder covers and passenger footrests. 11. Place the body on the frame.12. Install the rear side covers. Snap the rear tabs into the grommets on the Lehman

brackets.13. Check the fit at the joint of the body and the side covers. The wheel openings should
