I saw one of these motorcycles over the weekend and was impressed. Got me to thinking... "I can handle that baby" .
Give me your input. I'm a virgin driver....but broken in rider . :D BTW: Is that thing a stick? ;)
Thanks

I am sure they are foot shift as they are just conversion kits installed on two wheeled bikes, So I guess you could have one put on any brand Harley, honda, ect.... looks like it will cost over 9K but should be safer lol still would get run over by any car except maybe a yugo hehehe

MotorTrike http://www.motortrike.com was my web client for years. They have trike kits to fit most popular touring bikes and one complete pre-built trike that you don't have to convert.
Kits go for 6K+ unassembled
Their competitor is Lehman Trikes ... http://www.lehmantrikes.com/
Motortrike is a Troup, Texas based company and Lehman is in BC Canada.
They are all stable and reliable. Only problems come with sharp turns at slow speeds.

I wouldn't be able to take the curbs slowly? :eek:
All of sudden I'm getting flashbacks of the curbs I took on full speed with my first training wheels bicycle. :eek: I do see your point. :D
Thanks
