Guest Popeye Posted September 30, 2007 #1 Posted September 30, 2007 Tell me I didn't just see this on Ebay. ??????? http://i3.ebayimg.com/05/i/000/b9/20/f909_2.JPG This contraption is certainly news to me.
eagleeye Posted September 30, 2007 #2 Posted September 30, 2007 I saw a venture with the same type of training wheels. To each his own. Steve
hipshot Posted September 30, 2007 #3 Posted September 30, 2007 HEY CHARLIE check this one out! save don some trouble!lol :stirthepot: just jt
Lone Eagle Posted October 1, 2007 #4 Posted October 1, 2007 I think that is the Voyaguer Kit. Spoke with a lady out here who has one - and swears by it. Saw one one a Road King this weekend. Not for me -
Jerry W Posted October 1, 2007 #5 Posted October 1, 2007 I have seen a few bikes with the voyager kit on them. A couple of them were guys who had a few years and a couple of bad knees and could no longer hold the bike up. It was either the voyager kit or quit riding.
Danielthegrey Posted October 1, 2007 #6 Posted October 1, 2007 Yeah, I saw a number of those this weekend. Everyone that had one said they loved them.
Gentleman George Posted October 1, 2007 #7 Posted October 1, 2007 I have seen a few bikes with the voyager kit on them. A couple of them were guys who had a few years and a couple of bad knees and could no longer hold the bike up. It was either the voyager kit or quit riding. Hey! you talken to me... 1st choice and or 2nd choice ? still better then no choice.. are you listening Charlie???
Guest Ken8143 Posted October 1, 2007 #8 Posted October 1, 2007 Yeah - I saw this one time. Not to be offensive to anyone here, but it was an old geezer and without those wheels going up and down he would have had troubles I am sure. I thought it was kinda neat.
flb_78 Posted October 1, 2007 #9 Posted October 1, 2007 That's not a MTC Voyager kit, it's a different brand, but alot of folks need em if they wanna ride a motorcycle this size. I do know the Voyager kit will come off in about 10 minutes.
Freebird Posted October 1, 2007 #10 Posted October 1, 2007 I'm not sure but it looks more like the Tow Pack....
Gary N. Posted October 1, 2007 #11 Posted October 1, 2007 Hey there Popeye... go over and check out my RSV with those training wheels on it. Looks cool when done properly. A lot of us old farts are going this way. Hey Mike, I just had a look at your set up and was wondering if you are still able to open your bag lids without hitting the fenders on the Voyager kit? Just curious. The bike and trailer look great.
Eddy Posted October 1, 2007 #12 Posted October 1, 2007 I have a good friend that has the voyage on his valkyrie and loves it. His knees are very bad and he's getting the knees replaced this winter. Also, there's some folks that just aren't comfortable on 2 wheels but love the wind in their hair. I can see a regular trike in my future at some point. Eddie:stickinouttounge:
flb_78 Posted October 1, 2007 #13 Posted October 1, 2007 I'm not sure but it looks more like the Tow Pack.... Yep, it's a TowPac kit, and there's one for sale in the classifieds on this very site right now. http://www.venturerider.org/classifieds/showproduct.php/product/770/cat/7/limit/recent/date/1156239845
noahzark Posted October 2, 2007 #14 Posted October 2, 2007 My dealer installs these on all bikes, including smaller scooters, for around $1300 parts and labor (I think that's what he said). Has done three recently for amputees--it's a lot cheaper than a trike and it keeps them out in the open. Had never seen one before, but what a great idea, eh?
Guest Popeye Posted November 14, 2007 #15 Posted November 14, 2007 Hey there Popeye... go over and check out my RSV with those training wheels on it. Looks cool when done properly. A lot of us old farts are going this way. Spud; I took a look at your trike & trailer. Nice setup there, but I know many who have opted for the trike [we can't go to a meet without seeing several]. One friend I ride with got a trike since he lost some peripheral vision in one eye. Trikes seem to be popular with many younger riders as well....at least those who can afford them. However, the pic I posted just brings the word 'contraption' to mind. If I ever go 3 wheels [quite possible] it'll just have to look a little better than this one. Maybe it's a matter of taste, but these wheels are just toooo small, for me.
Ky. Rider Posted November 14, 2007 #16 Posted November 14, 2007 Hey there Popeye... go over and check out my RSV with those training wheels on it. Looks cool when done properly. A lot of us old farts are going this way. Squid, I was just lurking and looked your RSV up. That's a nice looking rig you've got there. Now I'm assuming the rear mc tire is gone and it's a three wheeler. Like the trailer also. I'll join the 60 club soon. Bill
vicco27 Posted November 15, 2007 #17 Posted November 15, 2007 My son thinks I'm nuts not going with the InstaTrike or the Voyager kit but my ego wants me to build a Trike, so a Trike it is, by spring the other ideas may be looking pretty good. .
