    Alan,

    Don't rule out getting one from interstate, as the wife had her's done on the Gold Coast and is very happy with it. Have a look at Eagle Trikes and what Hoppy can do for you.

    Take one brand new Dyna Lowrider and deliver to Eagle Trikes. (07) 5593 4750 

    One Motortrike kit as it arrived from the Ewe Ess of Hay.

    Getting some pointers on how to ride the thing.

    Home again and in the front yard.

    Now fitted with teardrop tail-lights, a pair of slip-ons, some heated handgrips and ready to roll.

    The wife has 5 degree triple trees on the trike, this makes the steering nice and light. lot's of trikes suffer heavy steering, but you only find out after you've bought it.

    The complete kit is $21,000 plus your donor bike and we shelled out another grand for the trees. We used wide-glides on it too, as we felt they would work better.

     

    End result, the wife looooves her trike.

    Once all the bits arrived, only about a month or so..

    Getting the final nod from Qld Tpt takes a little bit of time, as they are so slow.

    But Hoppy, he just gets in and gets it done, so give him a ring, i think you find him pretty helpful.

    I've ridden this one too, fuckin goes hard as.....

    reason I'm looking at a trike is, I have two buggered knee's right has been totally replaced
    and the left is about the same but not worked on yet.
    So a trike will keep me on the road with knees in the wind.

    Depends if U want a trike/trike or a bike/trike. I work with 2 blokes with trikes and one is a Rewaco with a Subaru and the other with a VW engine. One has also bought the new Spyder and it is the goods. It really depends on what U want to do with it. Let me know if U want soe pics.
