frankenstein trike conversion

[gerald martin]

Anyone out there in the process of doing a Frankenstein trike conversion. If so what are you converting and how's it going? Also those with a Frankenstein already, what's the most mileage accumulated so far and have you had any problems with it at all?

There are several Frankenstein conversions on this forum. I bet most members are still in the Holiday mode. It may take a few days for them to see the post.

My wife has a 2006 Softail that we converted with a Frankenstein Kit. The kit is top notch and so is there customer support. We have had no problems with anything. It has quite a few miles on it and is one of the best I have ever ridden.

How many miles. did you do the conversion yourself? Was it easy to do? Did you use the racked trees and if not how is the steering?

 

[monks]

We did the conversion ourselves. Very ez to install. We added the ez steer triple trees and it steer's good. A little more effort but you get used to it. Mileage is around 1000.

Trike looks great. I have a freewheeler right now but I wish I would have gone with the Frankenstein really looks like an old school hot rod and I bet you don't have the heat from the motor as much

Its running a stock 88TC with a 5 speed. I installed a Power Vision with a map from Fuel Moto. If we keep the speed to a max of 65. We get about 34 MPG, Sometimes I would rather ride it than my Ultra Classic.

08 1200 Sportster, installed in my garage. Top quality kit, customer service.( and cool t shirts.) Have not had any problem, over 9000 mi!es. Rode without raked trees just to compare before I installed them.Yes install the raked trees, it makes it easier to handle.

frankenstein trikes

I really thought there would be a lot more Frankenstein trike owners that would like to talk about their bikes but thanks to those that responded. I am trying to decide weather or not to build a trike but I want to make sure I pick a product that can go at least 75ooo miles without problems

Sorry you didn't get more feed back. IMHO they have a quality product, nothing made today is 100% failproof, but I think you would be satisfied if you purchased a Frankenstein Kit.
