Thanks Dan, took me twelve months to get the Vulcan right, originally
Had 13 x5 tyres, too much body roll and after talking to another tike builder upgraded to the larger wheels. Big difference.
Built a steel body and guards then aliminium body and guards before finally going for fiberglass.
The Yamaha took two weeks to turn around, both the customer and myself are over the moon with the end result.:D
At present I am working on eLectric brakes, safer for towing if it works.ThumbUp
 
There a kit l built myself, as far as l know Trigg kits are not available in Australia.
These are mounted direct to the frame and have a torsion axle either side. Takes about 10 minutes to install or remove.
Torsion axles are similar to the dexter or northern tool units l believe.
 
Not sure I understand good buddy? My caption: New rear end, was a bit of a joke and didn't really mean a new differential on my Wing. I was just showing off the new look of the ass end of the bike.;)
 
Duh? I must be getting old and retarded. The GW boxes (saddlebags) are mounted to bike. BTW, checked mileage today. As a 2 wheeler I average 36 mpg and with Tow Pac; 34. I'll take that. :Excited:
 
Rode my Wing this weekend for 500 miles with a group of riders down in the Texas Hillcountry. The lead guy rode a GL 1800 Motortrike and who is a spirited rider and had no problem keeping up with him. I now have nearly 1000 miles on my Tow Pac.
 
Re: Outrigger Trike Pics

That is a good lookin rig. You should sell them, looks very strong.
 
Dan B. I posted a Q on this forum concerning exactly what you have build. I have a GL1500 Goldwing and want to trike it. As someone has mentioned the kit you build are almost the same as what is available on the market in the US but also not in Namibia so I will have to build one myself. In this kit the original rearwheel is kept and two side wheels are added. How does the trike handles and ride. If you could email me and give more info I will be overjoyed. A "normal" kit, without the centre wheel,will have to be imported and will cost me around namibian dollars 100 000.00

It seems that you have the same sort of setup. Ons with the original rearwheel kept and two sidewheels added. Please let me hear your advise on this one.

Could save me thousands of N$ in trking my bike.
 
Here's a few of the Tow Pac Insta Trike kit I just bought... I haven't had time to have it painted yet to match the bike, but that is next on the list...
