Disadvantages of the live axle are constantly varying camber castor angle during pre-load and rebound affecting the plane of the vehicle leading to a shaking at the headstock. This is hugely offset however by the stability of the vehicle during cornering making high cornering speeds a real possibility whilst not compromising weight or ride comfort Designed sensibly, as in the popular Rhino trike range, a live axle set up can be the optimum arrangement for a motorcycle trike. Very important with a live axle trike is choice of front tyre and tyre pressure with a flat section wide front tyre running relatively low tyre pressure being the optimum choice.
