Soon to trike

Hello to the group. I just purchased a 2006 ABS model for my wife and I will be triking the unit with a kit from Trinity Trikes down in Florida. We will then be a two trike family as I usually drive a 1500 Goldwing trike. I will be looking for a rear wheel to cut the hub out and send to Bob Witte. So if you have an extra or a bent rim that still has a good hub contact me. Looking forward to getting good info from this forum.

Hellow IrishRob,

Welcome to the Forum - Enjoy the ride.

Best wishes with your trike conversion.

Rob, great to have you here. I look forward to hearing about your Trinity Trike Kit experience. You are going to really be happy with it in the end. I triked out my 05 earlier this year. I am available if you need any help with the installation.

IrishRob,

I have a spare wheel. Sent you a PM this morning.

Now that IrishRob has gotten an answer. I also am in need of a rear wheel as I am also planing on putting a Trinity Trike kit on my Wing. So if anyone else has a rear wheel they want to get rid of let me know.

I will start a POLL once I have a complete list of Trikes

1) Trininty
2) Danson
3) Voyager
4) Just Trike It
5) Tow Pac

Can anyone think of any other trike conversion kits for the poll?

I have just got my 2009 wing converted to a classic voyager trike. It is hard to get used to on curbs an corners. So far so good.I hope with practice it will get easier to ride.
Also are there any groups located near Kissimmee or Winter Haven Florida?

Thanks to all for the warm welcome. I appreciate that Roadrunner/Bill offered up his spare wheel. Just to let you know I found one locally and it is on its way south...so Model28A/Roger check with Roadrunner. I also have a few leads on others but some of the folks seem to think they are made of gold.

Good to be here.

I just received My Trigg trike today ,for training wheel ,she sure look's nice .I especially Like the narrow stance this kit has,48" fender to fender ,the wide tire brings it to 49 + . All the other kits comes at 55" up to 60 ,all the way to 64" witch I believe the tow pac. Tomorrow I will do the installation. Tonight I will read the instructions a few times . Expecting snow tomorrow so it will keep me busy. I will post more info and pics late.

Finished installing my trigg trike . It took me about 6 hr to do .Today I took my first 140 kl ride and the ride was great . Cross wind is a lot more stable and riding in curves went well at the speed limit and riding in town was a breeze ,and was surprise how short a radius it take's to turn. I put some photos on my album along with the 140 70 14 front tire that replace's the 120 80 14 stock tire .

Wow, you were able to install it all in 1 day. That is pretty cool. I will go look at your photo's. Congrats

Looks good.

The trigg trike comes all assembled ,All I had to to was installed the belly bracket assembly and the torsion bar connection on the rear shock mounts .After that you need tweak and aline everything to the centre of the rear swing wheel . Once the alinement is true,the trike can be removed and installed without loosing the alinement.Someone that don't have shoulder and knee problems like I have can do the installation in half the time that it took me to do.I will continue checking making sure that everything stays tight. So far I don't plan on going back to 2 wheels riding giving my knees a break.

After putting 500 kl on my trigg , I can safely say that this kit will be a permanent installation on my swing . The way it handles in traffic with a 48" wide stance you don't realize your on a trike .On the HWY in cross winds you don't get pushed around like before, she is still faster taking off the 1100Vstar's my buddies ride . teen agers called it a sick ride ( cool) , and a couple ho was looking to get a spider will be looking into a swing to trike at 1/2 the cost of the spider. Im getting 57 mpg and I am OK with that,It will improve in warmer weather.
