Motor Trike Kit Question

My 2011 Aero is being triked and should be ready next week. I have been trying to find out if triking the Aero with the Motor Trike kit will change the seat height. The dealer triking the bike didn't know, and I emailed Motor Trike company and they won't respond. Does anyone have an Aero triked with this kit? I am hoping the seat height remains low so it will be easier to back up (I'm short).

My Wife's 750 Aero Motor Trike was exactly 1 1/4" taller in the seat pocket than my 750 Aero 2-wheeler (we measured) that I still owned when She bought the Trike. ***

*** If your worry is pushing it backwards, She could push it back much easier than Her 750 Aero 2-wheeler because You only have to concentrate on pushing, not pushing/balancing.....My Wife is only 5'2" and never had a place She couldn't back it out of while She owned it...ThumbUp
 
Rebel I think you will be real happy with how easy it will be to move around when you get it back.I have a Goldwing/Motortrike with reverse that I seldom use because it is so easy to just push it backwards.RIDE SAFE
 
I push and pull mine all over the place . It rolls so easy the hardest part is stopping it. I sometimes I push it in gear by pulling in the clutch so it won't get away. .I have actually started it rolling back wards( motor off ) and hopped on for the ride. BTW I have rev but seldom use it . In 11 years maybe 15 times.Think when you park. Think like you are pulling a trailer always park backed into the curb. Always park in parking lots either nose up with nothing behind you or on the flat in a spot that you can pull ahead ( not in a spot that can be blocked in front of u. ) don't forget you can now push with one foot .
