Now the waiting begins

[robandlyn]

Rob I have that option on mine. Takes awhile to install but work great. I have a ski on the front. How do u drive the front one ??:yes:

I was too lazy to look for a pic of a bike with a ski on it

The pic of the tracks I used to crop it from was an ATV with the front & rear track setup.

Rob .....

 

[spiritdream]

Yes she did !
She got a job doing per diem over in Leominster at an Assisted Living place.
Her certification is now good for 2 more years. She may look into home
health care now that she got her certification.
Rob .....

Oh, good for her!! I kept meaning to ask - I'm so glad it's worked out for her! Hope it isn't too hard on her elbows.

[robandlyn]

WOOPEEEE!!! I at first thought you meant the Stork took the baby back!!!

When I called Lynn and said that, she thought the same thing .... LOL....
Rob ....

 

[spiritdream]

Fairly mild tonight....did Lyn get to go for a ride to christen the new baby?

 

[Nana]

We are all waiting with bated breath!!!!! We need information and pictures. Guess we are almost as excited as you guys .

 

[robandlyn]

Well it will be ready tomorrow so I am taking the day off from work
and Lynn will be riding it home ;-)
Here is a picture of it in their service area.
All the prep work is done and 1st thing tomorrow morning they will
put on the heated grips and the bumper.
I also took a picture of the SG Trike they have ...
Sorry it is now SOLD along with the next 2 trikes they are getting !

And?? Has she been able to stop smiling yet??

 

[robandlyn]

The guy with the tattoo's is the Mechanic at the Dealer that works
on our bikes. The non-bearded guy is the Owner of the Dealership
and the ONLY reason we were able to afford Lynn's new Trike.
She got to ride the 25 miles home thenhad to go to work.
Then I took it over to our insurance company and got to put
another 25 miles on it.
YUP .... She better hide that 2nd set of keys ;-)
Rob .....

 

[Nana]

That is absolutely awesome!!!!!! Congratulations to Lynn on her new baby . And what a great gift giver you are, Rob .

 

[robandlyn]

Opps ... One more picture and now that the Pic's & video are posted.
Now my thoughts on the short ride I had so far.
Only one word needed ..... " AWESOME "
Can't wait to spend more time in the saddle .....
Never thought I would like riding it as much as I did.

Hmmm ........
When does Lynn got to work again ...... Where does she hide those keys ..... LOL ....
One problem I had was what do you do with your feet now at a stop light/sign ?
I felt like Steve Martin with HAPPY FEET ;-)
Nice being able to ride and look around and not have to worry as much that the
bike would wander or worry about balance. I do ride one handed alot because I
can use body english to handle a 2 wheeled bike but for now I do not feel so safe
on the trike doing that since no amount of my body english will persuade the Trike
to change direction. A big plus will be riding double on it and not worrying about the
passenger moving around effecting the balance wheither moving or standing still.
Only thing we had happen so far was when Lynn got home on it and was having a
hard time finding Neutral (I did too) she just turned off the trike and then we could
not start it. I fiddelled with the gears and got it in Neutral and tried turning off the
alarm with the blinker switches (which I couldn't get it right) but it did FINALLY start.
I added a 8" high recurve Clearview windshield and a chrome windshield trim that I
had sitting around.
Rob ......

 

[robandlyn]

Thanks Everyone...
I Love It...
It will take some time to learn that leaning doesn't help..:no:
But he sure is a pretty nice machine love the power and color.
It is too bad I started working again well winter will be here soon..
We will try and get out as much as we can but I know Rob will be riding
it if I am at work but that's ok..:yes: He is the best husband in the world.
Lynn

Oh my Trikes name is My Big Boy Buddy named after one of my beloved kitty's..

 

[Gorilla]

Congrats you look mighty good on it.

 

[msocko3]

Looks good, now to pile on the miles.

 

[John Luciano]

I am going to be looking for you on the road. If you see some guy waving at U like an idiot that would be me .

 

[roadkill]

looks great enjoy

 

[robandlyn]

For the past 8 EXTRA weeks while she waited for her TG she wondered
if she did the right thing trading in her SG. So I asked her after
todays ride if she wanted to bring back the TG ad get her SG .....
If looks could kill I wouldn't be typing this ... LOL .....
I took it for ANOTHER ride for an hour before we rode while she got ready and dammm ...
I am ALMOST ready to trade in BOTH my bikes for one ;-)
Non-Trike riders have no idea what they are missing !
The advantages of a trike way out number the minus's.
Her's mufflers seam a way lot more louder sound than the stock 2007's do.
She/we have no plans on changing them out at all. I put on the shorter
recurve clearview windshield and it works fine and looks good too.
Defiantly has enough horse power for her weight and the type of riding we do.
When I rode it this morning I cranked it up to about 85+ and it got there pretty darn quick.
Well here is a video of todays ride appropriatly named .....
" A Women in Love but it ain't me "

YouTube - 2010tg

Rob .....

 

[Nana]

I love it, Rob! competing with a machine. You poor man

 

[tis]

Congrats on getting the TG, it looks like you guys are going to have alot of fun doing some Fall riding. I used to Love riding up that way, either on the Bikes or snowmobiles......

 

[Gorilla]

Nice video thanks for sharing. We can not make it to the fall colors this year so it helped.

 

[robandlyn]

Well she is REALLY enjoying it !
1000 miles in only one Month.
Friday up at Nashua,NH HD they are doing a 25% off on in-stock parts
and 15% off on ordered parts. She is getting a Reach seat and the
tour-pak rack with the LED stop light built in.

Rob .....

 

[Nana]

Well..... I've been wondering where you guys have been, Rob!!!!!! Now I know .

I have the reach seat on my trike and I love it! It is so much more comfortable when the seat fits you right!!!!

 

[robandlyn]

We been riding as much as we can.
Since she has the heated gear she is all set.
Last weekend we were riding in 40 degree temps ;-)
Unfortunatly the seat will have to be ordered and take 7 - 10 days ;-)
But you never know with this New England weather.
3 years ago it was 60 degrees the 1st week of January ....
Rob .....
