11) Install the shock bracket to solid suspension fork with 1/2”-13 x 2” bolts, 1/2” flat washers, and 1/2” lock washers and 1/2”-13 nuts. Note: Shock brackets are marked L for left and R for right. (Do not tighten at this time.)

12) Roll the motorcycle rear tire onto the 1/4” or 1/2” pre-load plate or recommended pre-load for your motorcycle.

13) Torque the U-bolt nuts to 35 ft. lb. After Torquing U-bolt nuts make sure to paint all U-bolt nuts black each time you torque. This prevents rusting of nuts.

Continuous pre-loading and torquing of the suspension bolts could flatten rear frame tubing.

14) Tighten the bolts and lock nuts on the suspension lock.

15) Install rubber shock mounts to the shock mount plate and shock bracket with 5/16” flat washers, 5/16” lock washers, and 5/16”-18 hex nuts. Tighten the rubber shock mounts and shock brackets. (Note: Do not stretch or compress the rubber shock mount. Install as close to natural position as possible.) (See fig. 1)

16) If installing Voyager Rear Assembly proceed to Rear Assembly instruction insert.

17) MOUNTING FENDERS TO VOYAGER FRAME (See pg. 4) 18) INSTALLING LOW STYLE REAR MUD GUARD (See pg. 4a). 19) Torque lug nuts on tires to 70 ft. lb.

20) Voyager tire pressure should be at 20 p.s.i.

21) Review your work. Make sure all of the suspension parts clear all parts of

the motorcycle such as the muffler, fender, rear tire etc. so that the suspension and motorcycle do not collide with each other. Paint all suspension U-bolt nuts after preload tightening.

When to re-preload your Voyager Conversion Kit

If you replace the rear tire on your motorcycle or have any service work done on the rear of your motorcycle you need to re-preload the Voyager Kit to your motorcycle. Voyager Conversion Kit may need to be re-preloaded before each driving season. Refer to Section 2 page 1 part C or Section 7 for preload instructions.

8) Slide the suspension forks and leaf springs under the Voyager, on each side. Slide the suspension forks over the k.prene bearings. (k.prene bearings are attached to Bearing Receivers, See page 6) Note: k.prene bearings should move freely.

9) Install (4) U-bolts 1/2”-20 x 1 3/4” x 4 3/8” over the Voyager frame - two on each side of the trailer ball.

10) Next, loosen the suspension lock bar bolts and nuts. Raise and support the suspension so that the leaf springs are touching the bottom of the suspension lock bar in between the U- bolts. Place one suspension U-bolt plate on the U-bolts under the leaf springs, then place one shock mount plate on the U-bolts under the leaf springs and suspension U-bolt plate with the 1/2” lock washers and 1/2” nuts. (Do not tighten at this time.) Note: Make

sure the shock plate bend is facing downward. (See Fig. 1) Note: The shock mount plate bend can go outside or inside of solid suspension fork.

(See Fig. 1 for outside setup. See pg. 8 for inside setup)

Next, slide the suspension forks back until the receiver bearings are 3/16”- 1/2” back of the tapered end of the solid suspension fork. ( Refer to Fig. 2 & ,also, page 6)

It is important to have your k.prene bearing set 3/16” to 1/2”. Incorrect placement could cause noises while riding or damage to the bearing receiver.

Note: Make sure the shock mount plate bend is facing

downward.

RE-PRELOAD THE VOYAGER KIT

RE-PRELOAD INSTRUCTIONS

Only 20 psi on Voyager tires. Make sure that motorcycle rear air shocks are at 80% capacity. Normal tire pressure on both motorcycle tires.

1. Tools needed: 3/4”, 7/16”sockets or wrenches and a torque wrench.

2. Loosen the (8) 1/2” U-bolt nuts. (If you have the old style suspension lock bar you will, also, need to loosen the (2) 3/8” lock nuts on the suspension lock bar using a 9/16” socket or

wrench.)

3. Roll motorcycle rear tire onto 1/4”, 1/2”, or 3/4” preload plate. (See pg. 15) (Preload plate can be wood, metal, or plastic.)

(Make sure motorcycle is in first gear when tire is on top of preload plate.)

The more preload the less lean you will have with the motorcycle inside the Voyager Kit.

4. Now tighten (8) U-bolts nuts to 35 ft. lbs. (torque wrench is needed) (If you have the old style suspension lock bar you will, also, need to tighten the (2) 3/8” lock nuts.)

5. Now you are ready to ride again.

SECTION 6

THE RIDE OF THE VOYAGER

READ CAREFULLY

5. The Voyager system makes braking safer. We have tested the Voyager attached to a number of motorcycles and have found when braking abruptly at 70 mph or lower speeds, the motorcycle tracks straight down the road.

6. The Voyager will steer much like a trike. You have to push and pull the front handlebars of your motorcycle. By leaning into the turns (both the driver and passenger) makes the steering of the Voyager easier. It also keeps the driver and passenger from feeling that they are being pushed to the outside of the turn.

You may experience front-end shake on the motorcycle handle bars, same as a trike or sidecar conversion. You are the steering dampener of your motorcycle with the Voyager unit attached. Remember to hang on to the handlebars and use the braking power of your motorcycle. The shake will dissipate rapidly, braking and/or slowing down will help if this situation occurs. Keep your hands on the handlebars at all

times.

7. You need to have your two wheel motorcycle drivers license in most states, to be able to drive your motorcycle with the Voyager unit attached, because it can be easily and

quickly unattached. In some states you can use the Voyager to attain your trike drivers license. Because we are so new to the motorcycle market place, some insurance companies will not insure the Voyager. We have a listing of insurance companies that will take care of your insurance needs. In most cases involving the Voyager it is considered an add-on to your motorcycle. We are presently involved in changing the vehicle identification code for motorcycles in the United States through the U.S. Department of Transportation. Since we make a two-wheel motorcycle safer

and we are being pulled like a trailer we fit into other areas of the Vehicle Identification Codes of the United States and the individual states with differing codes.

8. Many of the Motorcycle Tour Conversion, Inc. customers purchase the Voyager Kit for the stabilization of their two-wheel motorcycle. The Voyager Convertible Kit attached to your motorcycle does not improve your motorcycle riding ability. If you feel that physical limitations and/or limited riding experience are why you purchased the

Voyager Kit then you need to be extremely careful while riding for the first 2000 miles. PRACTICE, PRACTICE, PRACTICE. A large parking lot with very little

obstructions is the place to PRACTICE.

SECTION 6

THE RIDE OF THE VOYAGER

READ CAREFULLY

Thank you for your recent purchase of your Voyager system. We at Motorcycle Tour Conversion, Inc. would like to share the following information with you.

The Voyager is not a trike. It is a unique attachment that is designed to improve the stability of your motorcycle by adding two outrigger wheels to your stock motorcycle.

Some unique characteristics of the Voyager are as follows.

1. When the belly bracket is installed on your motorcycle, the motorcycle will lose considerable ground clearance. Be sure to check your motorcycle for the clearance change after the belly bracket is installed. Speed bumps, angle of pavement changes need to be watched. The loss of ground clearance will reduce the ability to lean into turns on some motorcycles when the Voyager is removed.

Your motorcycle’s ground clearance may require you to remove the belly bracket to return to normal two-wheel leaning and use. Remove the bolts and /or u-bolts holding the belly bracket securely to the motorcycle frame.

NOTE: If possible, mark the location of the belly bracket on the motorcycle frame before removal for correct reinstallation.

2. When cornering, the inside wheel on the Voyager may rise off the ground. This is a perfectly normal function and will cause no difficulty. For the Voyager to function properly this must occur.

3. When on rough road you will experience some bouncing of the Voyager. This is a normal function. This will not alter the normal function of your Voyager. The bounce you may experience on your Voyager may appear worse than it is because the fenders are attached rigidly on the Voyager and move with the wheels. Remember you are the dampener. Hold on to the handlebars and slow the motorcycle with Voyager Kit down and the bouncing will go away rapidly.

NOTE: The fenders on your car are independent of the wheels therefore do not reflect the bounce of the wheels. However the wheels are bouncing.

4. When pulling a trailer the tongue weight limit is 450 lbs. Your trailer is being pulled by the center of your motorcycle and not the rear end of the motorcycle. This makes towing safer on the highway.

SECTION 5

TROUBLE SHOOTING

YOUR VOYAGER

1. Things just don’t go together Read and follow instructions the way you think they should. carefully.

2. Bike leans to the right or left. Place shims in between frame and belly bracket (for one piece brackets) or in between the 2 pieces of the belly bracket.

3. Bike pulls to the right or left. Bike and Voyager are not aligned. Loosen Belly Bracket and align unit.

4. Bike has front end shake. Check tire pressure. Voyager tires 20 lbs. Motorcycle tires should have normal air pressure.

Check air pressure on shocks of motorcycle - front should have from 5-10lbs. Rear should be almost at max. air pressure. Front tire could be worn or cupped or out of balance.

Motorcycle front springs could be worn.

Front Fork Bearings are loose on

your motorcycle.

Make sure all hub bolts are tight. Due to a light front end on some H-D Sportsters and Dynas and some other motorcycle makes you may experience more front end shake. Motorcycle Tour Conversion, Inc. recommends wider handle bars (buckhorn style) and a steering damper or stabilizer. 5. Voyager unit is making noise. Check and tighten all bolts.

Tighten jam nuts.

6. Voyager ride seems too loose. Make sure main mounting bolts & lock washers are tight. Check pre-load.

(Refer to page 1 of Section 2

Part C for preload instructions)

3) Remove portable kickstand from rear of Voyager. Slide suspension forks over the k.prene bearing on bearing receiver attached to axle brackets. Attach 3/4”-10 x 3 3/4” bolt to belly bracket on both sides with 1 1/8” socket, (second 3/4”-10 x 3 3/4” bolt will need some adjusting to attach, use jack stand to adjust). Make sure that both 3 3/4” bolts are tightened on belly bracket as firm as possible. Remove jack stands and you are ready to ride.

5 Min. Off:

1) Make sure the motorcycle is on a flat level surface. Install the jack stands into the belly bracket, one on each side. (Refer to step 2 above.) Adjust jack stands to touch the floor.

2) Remove the left 3/4”-10 x 3 3/4” bolt with a 1 1/8” socket, then remove the right bolt. With the main bolts and spacers removed, walk to the back of the Voyager Kit. At this point you will take hold of the hitch ball and slide the Voyager frame off the k.prene bearings. Then pull the Voyager frame back until the cross bar of the Voyager frame hits the rear tire of the motorcycle.

3) Place portable kickstand in position at the rear of Voyager frame. (Insert

portable kickstand into the holes on both sides of the hitch ball. Ref. page 8)

Portable kickstand should be in an upright position and tight with surface.

4) Lower side kick stand of your motorcycle in the down position. Remove the left side jack stand and let your motorcycle rest on its kickstand. Then remove the right jack stand. Roll motorcycle over cross bar of Voyager frame.

WARNING

Any after market products that hang below side bags or rear of motorcycle

(ex: light bars, long muffler extensions, tow bars, or mud flaps) must be removed or they might be in danger of colliding with suspension or frame of Voyager.

Rear suspension of motorcycle will need to be set at maximum travel height and in good condition. If there is play in the rear of the motorcycle then your suspension needs to be adjusted. Lift up the rear of your motorcycle, if it travels more than 2 in., your motorcycle suspension needs to be adjusted.

SECTION 2

INSTALLATION OF FRAME, AND

RUBBER SHOCK MOUNT SUSPENSION

A) Assembly

1) Remove all hardware, tires, and frame from crate. 2) Install tires, tighten lug nuts and air up tires to 20 psi.

B) Jack Stands

1) For ease of installation, remove the rear mud guard. Place the portable kickstand in position at the rear of theVoyager frame. (Insert the portable kickstand into the holes on both sides of the hitch ball. (See pg. 8) The portable kickstand should be in an upright position, and tight with the surface of the ground.

2) With the motorcycle in neutral, push backwards over the cross bar and rest the motorcycle on its kickstand. NOTE: You may need to hold motorcycle tightly and give it a hard push over the crossbar.

3) Locate the jack stand receiver nuts at the front of the belly bracket. (See pg. 6)

Screw one jack stand into the side opposite the kickstand. While holding the motorcycle upright adjust the jack stand so it touches level with the ground. Then place motorcycle back on the motorcycle’s side kickstand.

4) To screw in the second jack stand, hold the motorcycle upright resting the weight on the first installed jack stand. Screw in the second jack stand and adjust until level on the ground. Make sure the motorcycle is properly balanced on the jack stands.

5) Raise the motorcycle’s kickstand. The jack stands should be completely supporting the motorcycle’s weight.

C) Frame and Rear Suspension (Suspension Preload Instructions) 1) Remove the Voyager portable kickstand.

2) You can now bring the motorcycle and Voyager into alignment.

3) Line up the Voyager heim joints with the main shaft of the belly bracket, jack stand adjustment may be necessary. (Note: Start screwing the main bolt in by hand to keep from cross threading.) To install the main attachment bolts (3/4”-10 x 3 3/4”), slide the lock washer onto the main bolt, insert the main bolt through the heim joint, slide the spacer onto the bolt, and screw the main bolt into the belly bracket. Adjust the jack stand to align the second main bolt. Tighten both bolts completely. Torque main attachment bolts to 80 ft. lbs. (See pg. 1b)

4) Remove the jack stands. After having installed the mounting hardware and attaching the Voyager frame to the belly bracket you may need a shim(s) to make the motorcycle stand straight up and down. Go back to “Description of Parts” page for instructions on shimming.

PICTURE OF THE FRONT ATTACHMENT

FOR HEIM JOINT (BALL JOINT) SET UP

The instructions for attaching the Voyager frame to the belly bracket are as follows. NOTE: On “C” or “D” frames the heim joints may not be installed on the frame. Attach the heim joints and jam nuts into the frame by screwing them in tightly as shown in picture above. (Antiseize Lubricant has already been added to inside of frame where heim joint screws in.)

1. Make sure the heim joint (ball joint) hole and the main shaft of the belly bracket are in line with each other.

2. Make sure the heim joint (ball joint) is straight up and down. Adjust the heim joint with the main bolt by moving it into place.

3. Slide the lock washer onto the main bolt and insert the main bolt through the heim joint. Then, slide the spacer onto the main bolt and screw the main bolt into the belly bracket.

Note: Spacer needs to be between belly bracket main shaft and heim joint (ball joint).

Tighten completely.Torque the main bolts to 80ft. lbs. We recommend that you check the torque on these bolts every 500 miles.

Warning:

Make sure the belly bracket spacers are in the correct position when tightening main bolts. Tightening the main bolts with the belly bracket spacers not in the correct position could result in crimping the front of the Voyager frame.

NOTE FOR ALL KITS THAT RECEIVE A NEW

CASTLE NUT AND COTTER PIN:

RIDE OF THE VOYAGER

IMPORTANT

ADIVSORY

For Dynas, Sportsters, and other motorcycles with a lighter front end.

Please read through the following information and

recommendations thoroughly and completely from

Motorcycles Tour Conversions, Inc.

When converting motorcycles with a lighter front end, including but not limited to, Harley-Davidson Sportster, Dyna, Honda Shadow, Rebel, Reflex, CB, Kawasaki Vulcan, KZ, Yamaha Virago, V-Star, Suzuki Intruder, Marauder, etc., it is important to take note of the following precautions for the best ride and handling possible:

1. When converting any motorcycle to a trike or trike-like setup, the rider uses push-pull steering to control the direction of the unit. Often Dynas, Sportsters, and other

motorcycles with a lighter front end, com stock with narrow handlebars. Narrow handlebars will make a trike or trike-like setup more difficult to steer due to a lack of leverage. To add leverage, change the handlebars to a wider option (i.e., Buckhorn or Wide Boy handlebars).

Motorcycle Tour Conversions, Inc.

RIDING DISCLAIMER

READ CAREFULLY BEFORE OPERATING

dangerous. Any motorcycle rider, with or without a Voyager attached, should use extreme

caution while riding, and only ride when mentally and physically able to make quick decisions and react appropriately to the necessary decisions.

We want to thank you for purchasing the Voyager Convertible Kit. Most of our

customers purchase the Voyager because they need help with stabilizing their motorcycle. The Voyager is going to keep your motorcycle in an upright position. The Voyager, when installed properly on your motorcycle, makes the entire unit one of the fastest stopping or braking

motorcycle units on the road today. When applying both the front and rear brakes on flat surface road, under safe operating conditions, the full unit will track straight, stopping in 3 seconds or 30 ft when traveling 30 mph, and 6 seconds or 60 ft when traveling 60 mph.

DO NOT attach any aftermarket products to the frame, fenders, or guards of the

Voyager. These products may interfere with the normal, intended movement of the Voyager around the motorcycle. Check for any possible interferences between the motorcycle and Voyager Convertible Kit natural movement.

If you feel the ride, while the Voyager is attached, at any time feels out-of-control or hazardous for any reason (road conditions, animals, wind, going too fast for conditions, drive error, etc.) all you have to do is:

HANG ON TO THE HANDLE BARS

(while releasing the throttle)

APPLY BOTH FRONT AND REAR BRAKES

(as needed)

DO NOT PANIC & STAY IN CONTROL
