New Ride

[Guest divey]

It was my intention to move to 3 wheels in about 2 - 3 years but I came across one locally I couldn't turn down. 2008 RSV with 64,500 kms (40,000 miles) with a 2010 Hannigan kit. Seems to have been well taken care of (not as clean as my 07 RSV though) but now I'll start making it mine with a few add-ons. Looking forward to picking a few brains on here about the trike world.

F-bomb-ing GORGEOUS! Congrats!

Lemme know how well the V-4 pulls that trike!

Well I've ridden it for about two hours mainly highway miles and so far I'm impressed with the power. Definitely doesn't get going like my RSV when I get on the throttle but enough for what I need. Doug

Wow! Looks great, that colour combo sure has been popular this week!

 

What can you say about the handling dynamics of it vs your RSV? I've never ridden a trike, at least not since a Honda Big Red when I was a kid.

 

Congratulations Doug!

Congrats on the trike! How much room is inside that trunk? Looks like room for weeks! Also, does this have a reverse gear?

Feel free to ask away to us Hannigan owners!

Thanks James. Much easier to adjust to than I thought but still takes some getting used to when going into corners and pulling up to stops. No more concerning myself with stable footing at a stop light or ensuring the front wheel is straight when grabbing some front brake. The hardest transition for me was getting back on 2 wheels and remembering I had to do all of the above again. Doug

Thanks. The trunk is pretty large. I’d say quite a bit more than the two saddlebags on the 2 Wheeler. Their website says 6 cubic feet. No reverse but is surprisingly easy to move around on a level surface. Doug

I was wondering when you were going to post this updated ride on here, Doug. I just noticed this morning.

Is sure is a pretty machine. I look forward to our next coffee meeting so I can see it in person.

Dale.
