</div>it has a jack shaft that has 3 sprockets two drive the wheels 1 gets power from trans....<br />
they look koool but way to narrow to be stable in a corner an no suspension... to me its hardly a bar hopper your opinion may vary <img src="images/smilies/smile.gif" border="0" alt="" title="Smile" class="inlineimg" />
YUP, wouldn't be a daily driver for sure but I have to admit it looks NICE!!! <img src="images/smilies/poof.gif" border="0" alt="" title="poof" class="inlineimg" /><img src="images/smilies/poof.gif" border="0" alt="" title="poof" class="inlineimg" />
Truth be told I never saw him start it or ride away....
dont know why I can't edit that photobucket that won't work. I tried to post from my phone
when I asked hoe he set it up, he said only one side is live or they would fight. Said can't have ind suspension because of the chain. I was confuse y 2 chains if only one wheel drives ? The tires are 12" wide t least.
if it has 2 chains.to the wheels .like others i have seen (cant tell for sure in pic.)
i did build a trike yrs ago that had a solid axle and ratchets in the wheels from a two wheel garden tractor, so the inside wheel could lag a bit on the corners... but when you let off you have no braking action cuz it just ratchets,,, just hadda try it, wanted to ride in the snow and that is what got me hooked on trikes
the growth of the first one not in order
deffinately 2 wheel drive
an yes they will fight and want to go straight
have seen these guys go up on 2 without trying... kinda like a hard right on a sidecar.... at least we can add some weight in a sidecar if required
<font size="4">Just saw a HD with 2 wheels in front, was at light across from my room. Don't know my HD's so don't know the model, kinda older one though. Suspect home built, going down street will keep eye out for it, and get a pic. </font><br />

<font size="4">On that chopper trike, saw one a while ago that had 2 swing arms, one for each wheel, chain for each wheel, chain for a center pivot point, thus enabling each back wheel to have a suspension of a sort. That's best way I can explain it. Must have had a ratcehing thing to allow for corners, can't remember. </font>
