Weird noise in clutch

my tires were low i thought she was slow and spongy, my air nozzle is broken. I got the air i needed. OMG she turns now and rides like she should. watch out for the steering it works real good. barley gotta touch it and you in the curb. that car tire is like power steering on steroids with a side of steroids. the suspension stiffened right up. yeah the way i like it moves so fast they back right off. she got her speed back. the clutch is fixed no more gear banging. she stops very normal, as fast as she goes anyway. shes like riding on rails that move.

Great to hear the long re-build is over and you are out there in the wind free as a bird....:clapping:....
 
i had to go get dinner again, the 3rd night in a row. i have answered the question when will the pain set in.

this trip was it i barely made it home, my arm hurts like hell and my ability to walk is severely taxed. it took my 5-10 min to get back on the bike. in my defense the other times i went to drive through no standing. this time i went to panda without my walker. i used one of their chairs but it was heavy when i dragged it back. that hurt. i gotta figure how to carry my walker., without destroying it or my new fenders. found my next project.:gah::gah:

ADD; 27,500 veiws thank you all for the support.
 
I wonder if you could use a variation of this. Or if you had a hitch one of the lightweight single bike racks.

although i like the idea it would have to be built to use my trailer hitch. this is a heavy duty 450 lbs walker with big wheels. it would need 2 wheel holders that hold all four wheels and an upright that would hold both sides with a center bar. it would not be able to be held by the cross bars it would unfold, it would have to be held by the side bars. it would also need to fold down to allow access to the rear trunk. then there is the license plate issue. im not able to build such a thing, even though it would be the best way to carry this as it would free up my rear seat. i did however order rubber tape to protect the fenders when i use the rear seat. the wheels just happen to sit on the passenger hand grabs. only option i can afford, oh and i need new bungee cords. it's an interesting thing to search and see if i can find one pre built, i could save for.

what do you know i found one for $320 that i dont have. but it says my larger walker wont fit. https://www.amazon.com/Steady-Car-C...eywords=walker+carrier&qid=1602991233&sr=8-20

My late wife had a similar walker,like you I didnt have much luck trying to mount it. I found a 2 bike carrier but the weight of just the carrier on the hitch and the mods I wouldve had to make didnt work out. But that was over 5 years ago and maybe tech has gotten better.
 
great news

I just talked to Mrs Steady the owner of steady carriers she is sending me a returned carrier, and an adapter for my hitch. no charge. i will soon be able to carry my walker with ease.

ThumbUp........There are good people in this world....Most of them just keep a low profile...
 
the carrier arrived

the carrier arrived on fri the 30th. i had to buy a 2 in to 1 1/4 in hitch adapter. the adapter had to be shimmed to firm it up. then we had to shim the 1 1/4 in carrier rod were it went into the hitch. then the upright bar also had to be shimmed. also my hitch pin is 1/2 in, the adapter is 5/8 so i have to shim the pin for side to side movement. oh boy is this a used carrier.

it is all firmed up now. i still bungeed the walker to the bike and the seat down. but mounted solid. its tilted because i have not shimmed the pin yet.

Long live ''JOY'' The trike of many Resurrections.....And a few colors..:clapping:......
 
a quick update

hi everyone just wanted to let everyone know JOY is fine. the rear brakes are holding, the engine is running normal, the walker carrier works great, the battery is still good. i'm not riding much now as it cold. it's also exhausting for me to load the walker go to a place, unload the walker, walk around the place, load my thing and do it again to get home. i'm just not used to so much activity. i am hoping to do more when it warms up. still having a mask issue cant wear it when i'm hurting, cant breath. expect to be harassed more about that soon.

nice taking
 
Have you tried wearing a gator? That’s all I use it’s lite and keeps your neck warm also it’s convenient to use you just need one hand to slide it up over your mouth and nose.👍
 
my problem with the cold is not as simple as a gator, i have always had one of those. i put on 100 lbs because of my back injury. i dont have enough warm cloths that fit to wear or insulated pants.
