A conventional trike kit and a Voyager motorcycle conversion handle and ride similarly.  Both use push-pull steering and give you great stability in traffic and at stops.

The major difference is that Voyager is not permanent–it leaves you the option to go back to two-wheels. You can move your Voyager from motorcycle to motorcycle (of similar size) with the purchase of new mounting hardware and suspension parts, if needed. You do not have to permanently modify a your motorcycle.

There’s no need to pay 3 times the money for the same ride!  Why not take a few vacations instead?

Quality. We have the strongest frame and attachment points in the industry for important reasons. The Voyager has been strenuously tested for stress levels by an independent engineering firm.

The Voyager Convertible Kit is the original convertible kit since 1998. We have more satisfied customers on the road today than any other convertible kit company. We constantly improve the Voyager and have been for 23 years. We have the largest and most committed dealership network.

Built to last. We have multiple customers that have put 300,000+ miles on a single Voyager using 3+ different motorcycle.

Trust the experts. Trust the track record. Trust the superior product.

Heck yeah!  The Reverse by Voyager is an option for old and new Voyagers alike.  Check out our reverse page.

Each style Voyager functions equally giving you the same great ride and stability no matter the kit style you choose. When you order your Voyager for your motorcycle, no matter if it is the Standard, Custom, or Classic, you will receive the same heavy-duty mounting and suspension hardware.

The difference is in the cosmetic options. The Standard includes metal fenders and a metal rear guard. The Custom includes your choice of premium fiberglass fenders and a metal rear guard. The Classic included your choice of premium fiberglass fenders, your choice of fender tail lights, a wiring harness, and a premium fiberglass rear assembly (which includes two H-D style tail lights).

NOTE: Everything is bolt on. No drilling, no welding.

The Voyager is mounted via receiver brackets (mounting hardware) installed on the motorcycle. Once these brackets are installed, the Voyager frame will bolt on and bolt off in minutes. The receiver brackets are not permanent, but for most bikes, can stay on while riding your two-wheel motorcycle.

Installing the Voyager yourself requires basic mechanical knowledge. NOTE: Everything is bolt-on. No drilling, no welding. Generally, we say, that if you can change your own rear tire, you will have no problem installing the Voyager.

Necessary Tools:

1. SAE Wrenches (7/16”; 9/16”; 1/2”; 3/4”, 1-1/8”) OR Metric Wrenches (8mm–19mm)
2. Phillips Screwdrivers
3. 32mm Axle Bolt Wrench (usually comes with motorcycle)
4. Torque Wrench

It takes our experienced installers between 1.5 and 4 hours to complete an installation depending on the motorcycle, Voyager style, and Voyager options.

For an inexperienced installer, expect 3-8 hours depending on the motorcycle, Voyager style, and Voyager options.

After your Voyager installation, taking the Voyager off of your motorcycle is simple and quick. First, stabilize your motorcycle. Second, remove the main attachment bolts. Third, unplug your electrical, pull the Voyager off the rear receiver brackets and install your portable kickstand. Forth, roll or drive you motorcycle over the crossbar and off of the Voyager. This process generally takes 5-10 minutes.

To put the Voyager back on just reverse the steps: Back the motorcycle into the Voyager, line up the rear receiver brackets with the suspension forks, plug your electrical and bolt in the main attachment bolts. This process generally takes 10-20 minutes.

The more you practice, the faster the on-and-off process.

You have the choice of either a finished gloss black or primer gray. For a charge, we will custom paint your Voyagers. However, we do not guarantee an exact match to your motorcycle, the process generally take up to 4 weeks and it costs $450-650. Specialty colors may cost more, call for details.

WARNING: Motorcycle Tour Conversions, Inc. cannot guarantee a match due to, but not limited to, (a) changes in color, due to wear from sun or weather exposure or regular use, or (b) incorrect or insufficient information provided about the motorcycle or paint color. Paint completion times are subject to change without notice.

During the slow season (October through February) your Voyager will ship in 1-2 business days. During the busy season (March through September) your Voyager will ship in 5-10 business days. After being shipped, the package generally takes 5-7 business days to arrive.

Your Voyager sits in a 66” x 66” x 28” box. It weighs 360 lbs. You will need to get it off of the truck via man-power or lift. If you have neither available, you can request lift gate service for an additional fee.

The Voyager’s suspension is independent of the motorcycle. The Voyager wheels move independently of the motorcycle reducing front-end shake. Front-end shake is also reduced by shock absorbing leaf springs and rubber shock mounts.

Becoming high-centered is physically possible, but rare. The Voyager wheels and the rear wheel of the motorcycle work independently of each other and therefore allow each other to move to different heights on an uneven road. The Voyager wheels are also preloaded to push the center wheel down to the ground lowering the chance of traction loss.

Not in the sense of leaning a two-wheel motorcycle, not for control. However, there is a slight amount of flexibility allowing the motorcycle to lean/tilt approximately six to twelve (6-12) degrees inside of the Voyager delivering a less rigid ride. Despite the lean, with the Voyager-attached motorcycle must be steered like a trike (using a simple push-pull system).

Your new Voyager carries a warranty on all parts and labor for a period of one year from the date of original purchase. This warranty covers the repair or replacement of all parts on Voyager or attachment hardware defective due to manufacturing. Any damage due to abuse, road hazard, or collision is not covered under this warranty.

Warning

The installation of the Voyager kit is critical. Failure to follow the installation manual cancels all factory warranties. Liabilities are with the installer if not properly installed. The owner is responsible for normal maintenance. Make sure all bolts are tightened before each riding season.

An independent engineering firm (Datasyst – WI) tested the Voyager for stress levels on its frame and hardware parts.

Tests performed: Ultimate Load Test; Stress Coat Testing; Strain Gage Data Acquisition; Cyclic Load Test; Fatigue Analysis.

These tests helped improve and assure the Voyager’s strength and safety.

Questions exist about the Voyager’s legality based on motorcycle vehicle identification codes generally reading, “…a motorcycle is every motor vehicle designed not to travel on more than three wheels in contact with the ground.” The Voyager’s legality is not found here.

The Voyager is legal under motorcycle trailer law, which states, “a non-motorized vehicle carrying persons or property being drawn or pulled by a motorized vehicle.” The Voyager is drawn from the motorcycle, carries persons (the rider and passenger) and property (the motorcycle).

Doesn’t a motorcycle trailer require a tag? Yes, if it is an extension of the motorcycle. The Voyager is not an extension of the motorcycle, therefore does not require a tag.

Also, the Voyager is legal under the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990. This act states that any product or modification that allows people to operate a vehicle or system in a way that makes it safer for the operator and the public is legal. Disabilities include both height and strength, which are major causes for needing stability.

If there is ever a question, call us.  If you’re ever threatened that you’re riding an illegal vehicle, say that is incorrect and if ticketed, call us.  We will assist with full force upon any confusion.  We’ve had the motorcycle identification changed or outrigger stabilizing wheels identified in Iowa and Washington.

Every style of mounting hardware is unique to each year/model motorcycle. Different size Voyager suspension forks and/or leaf springs are required to accommodate different motorcycles.

A mounting hardware kit includes all receiver brackets (belly bracket, etc.), bearing receivers, hardware, installation manual, replacement axle bolt (if necessary), portable kickstand, shims, and jack stands.

Typical cost: $950.00-1790.00.

The tall shocks on the back of the Voyager prevent the use of the lowered rear guards. Therefore, first, you need to purchase a retrofit suspension kit. These kits cost $132.00-$145.00 and include the rubber dampers & hardware.

After you have changed your suspension the lowered rear guards can be used. There are two (2) choices: Standard metal rear guard – $275.00; or, Classic fiberglass rear assembly with Harley-Davidson style lights – $730.00 (wiring not included).
