Power steering questions

#1 Post by riplipper » Tue Jun 04, 2024 9:45 am

I have a Harris 220 Sunliner with 200 Vrod.
The steering on this thing has always been horribly stiff.
Trimming up helps some but still just too stiff.
Are everyone else's toons tough to steer??
For those that have added power steering, how much easier does it steer.

thanks.

Mine has power steering and I can use 1 finger to turn it.
I love it.

I do not have power steering on my little 115 HP because I don't need it. I have NEVER heard anyone say that they were sorry for spending the money on it. People love it once they have it!
