Triking the beast

[Limbuck]

I love my Rocket. I used to be a pretty big boy back when I got the beast. I got littleler and it didn't. Dern thing scares me when it's not moving. I'm not going to get rid of it so I'm seriously considering triking it. Motor Trike is the only kit I've seen offered here (U.S.) to date. I need some feedback guys on members who have triked their R3T's. Motor Trike or another brand? Experiences good or bad? The R3T should make an awesume trike, I never thought I would have ever considered this but circumstances change. With Motor Trike: Can the original seat, passenger backrest with luggage rack be retained? Current exhaust system? (I have D&D) Is reverse mechanical or electrical? To date Motor Trike info on the Rocket is not enough, at least what I've found. Thanks all.

Thanks mate (that right). I never liked trikes on face value but I met a few folks with bad knees and such who told me this allows them to continue to ride. Imagine that taken away? Strangely enough things change and now I totally get it. And yes, if one must trike then the Rocket beast will make one hell of a trike.

don't know who this trike actually belongs to,
or who made it, but I like the style of it.

is that an Australian tag?

Well if you drove a fast black bike it would match and look good

I can identify with the way the R3 "feels" after losing weight. I weighed in at ~240lbs until I went under the chemo and radiation. When I finally was strong enough to ride again (after about 4 months) I took her around the block and OMG! Now weighing in at 165 lbs made SOOOOOO much difference. She was already equipped with about 30-40 extra horse power from various augmentations but I'll tell you what.... the losing of the extra bagage made almost as much difference as anything I did to add horsepower. Still wasn't worth going through the treatment thoughp
