Another great build. One question the Cargo Rack is rated for 44 lbs, how will mounting the trike kit to it increase or decrease the weight limit of the cargo rack?

Okay, I did a lot of research before I decided to go to the cargo rack. So the bike is rated for a rider weighing 265 lb. When I looked up the total weight that the bike can handle, the US models said 309 lb. The pulling/towing capacity is 331 lb. So the reason why they're rated at 44 lb on the rack is because if you are at the top end 265 lb then there's only 44 more pounds the suspension can hold. As far as when we trike it, there is no weight added to the bike. It actually allows the bike to handle over 734 lb due to the 425 lb suspensions we added. Now it's still just rated at 331 lb for pulling but the trike kit only adds 5 lb resistant weight so now it can handle 326 lb. That's getting it up to full speed. And going up steep hills. I am 250 lb and I rode this thing before I put the rear end on and it would get to 45 mph. Once I put the rear end on and took it for a test spin. It would still get up to 45 mph on me. If you're heavier then it might not get to that speed. But I seen no diminishing power for pulling after we put the rear end on. Thank you for the question and God bless.

@@bictrikes I was just asking. I am having a wonderful time on the 2023 Kawasaki Vulcan 900 LT that you did for me 7 months ago.
