Having had a spinal injury and arthritic back and leg problems,i was having problems stopping the Goldwing trike with the standard brakes.Being a member of the National association bikers with disability NABD i was aware of the Kliktronic K Twin levers that they allow grants for there members...
Earlier this year i was lucky enough to have a grant excepted and fitted the twin k brake levers and boy!! what a difference its made to stopping the trike.:10:

I have since had the top short lever that operates the front brakes changed for a long lever,same as the lower rear brake lever...Has suffer arthritus in hand also and could,nt get enough brake leverage stopping the trike and teardrop trailer that i now tow
 
Wow great to have something like this available to those who need it.
 
The original brakes were on the limit and was having issues in heavy braking situations...Now it comfortably hauls up the trike and 250kg RV TrailerThumbUp
 
Nice set-up. Good to see that there are folks with the creativity to stay in the wind and not just give up an activity that is loved. ThumbUp
