My sales order Just started today :happy65: The end user now can purchase the reverse kit.

and have it sent to your home. it's all bolt on and no welding. There is a 3 week

build time as well after the sales order hits the floor.

 

I will take photos and how to, through my process as well for anybody considering

this option.

 

The Carbon_One Aux is not in the way for this upgrade. however if you have the older

style Hannigan aux tank that would also have to be changed out.

 

I will be bugging Larry I am sure through out my Build. I think I my be the

first customer for the Retro Fit Reverse. :D

 

The Kit is $1.095.00 and shipping is $58.00 I chose to keep this project

through Hanniagn as I would get Jims help as well when doing my Install.

 

From doing research you may be able to find a shop and buy it through them

at a lower cost as well. If they let you just pick it up from them. I did call a few other

shops and they wanted shop time of $600 to do the install. :shock3:

 

Wish me Luck !

Just in time for my Birthday !:)

Wife just gave this to me for that day , she is wonderful. she likes chrome as well

Nice!! Keep us posted. Just might have to do this after this riding season. I had one time that a reverse was defenitly needed. A one lane dead end road with no turn offs and on an incline. It wooped my butt.

I just called Jim Gooch (SP) myself at HMS the other day and left a message. My dad is wanting to get a reverse retro kit also. Did he say how much it would be to get it installed by them? I am looking forward to seeing pictures throughout the process so that maybe dad and myself can just install it. I through that there was a bracket that is welded on the new kits that is missing from the old for the little motor? This is a no weld install? I am VERY interested in this. Thanks, for being the genie pig for all the rest of the retro HMS trikers. :rotf::080402gudl_prv:

Kid this is a post from Veritas from Trike Talk.. He works for Hannigan

 

The Retro-Fit of the Reverse Assembly will not require ANY cutting or welding no matter when the HMS Yamaha Trike was built and/or converted.

 

Here is page two of this talk

 

http://www.triketalk.com/forum/yamaha-trikes-161/reverse-rsv-trike-14019/index2.html

 

Jim will just refer you to John for more details about the cost . I have no clue about another shop installing I do know that it is $195 from a fresh build. most shops

will charge you shop time at $75 or more per hour , also they might want to remove the

body as well. I am going to try and see if I can do it with out removing it. if so removing

the body is very simple.

 

As of right now the cost is $1095 and $58 shipping

 

Good luck and keep us posted :-)

 

I am going to so as much as I can to help the next person do this install in the future.

 

John has told me that the install looks very simple to do as well. we will see !

I will be finally installing my Carbon1 tank soon, so If I order it now it should be here in time...

Maybe we can do it at Don's MD with 3 of us (that's if Larry will help) on it it won't take long. I'm in.

...except that I'm bringing the cage to get the pinstriping fixed! I will have the tank installed before the International and it would be nice to do reverse at the same time, should I decide to spend the extra money I really don't have...
