    Do the f4's collect as well? and the clearviews? The Cleaview would let rain settle on it thus the reason I picked up a F4 which is supposed to do a better job of shedding rain drops. My shields are tall (gives the better half more protection) so I look thru them. I'll find out eventualy I guess. One of the other guys here who have used one for a while can give you a better idea on what to expect. All reports I've read gave favorable remarks thou. Larry

    The trikes are about 12ft long and 5 ft wide. Hannigans a bit wider(don't know the exact size) Make sure you have the roof clearance for the windshield when driving on & off. Other than that I don't think the trailer is overkill. The extra space will allow you to add storage compartments or whatever. Larry

    I just recieved my F4 yesterday and got it installed. Will be doing some riding over the week/weekend. It's about a 1/2" shorter then the Clearview I took off so don't think there'll be any real differences with buffetting or whatever. After using the tinted Clearview for the last 3 years and looking through the F4 it sure has a crystal clear view from the seat. One thing I noticed between the two while installing it was that the F4 has a much more flexable nature to it compared to the Clearview which is very rigid. Does the F4 flex any while going down the road? Larry

    He got it some time before the International Rally at Cody,Wy this past July. I think he's been keeping a tight lip on this so he won't catch flack from the rest of you antique riders. Got some pics somewhere and will post em later. Larry

    2nd that. Now we don't give the sand & gravel as much as a second thought. Of course that depends on speed and curves. Normally all I do now is just drive on thru. Yep being on three does have it's advantages. Larry

    Well Charlie the Fishman what can we add to this? You were, and still are, a member of note here last I looked. Whether that's good or bad I know not but rest assuered the site would not be the same without you. I for one will never forget you as we did have some great times together sharing stories and rides over the years. Yep we laughed and cried tears of joy & sorrow a few times but you know what? That's called life. It's too bad you won't be able to ride anymore but at some point in life we all will reach this same situation. Regardless life does go on. You've returned to doing what you liked a lot in the past and that's being on water with a great boat and a fishing pole in your hands. Enjoy that as well for as long as possible. Whatever your health issuses are I do hope that you can overcome them. Peace to you Charlie. Larry

    While I wasn't banged up like Tom is now I can relate to the Venture Rider family looking after Joyce & I when we had our mishap back in 07 while attending Vogal. It's a great feeling knowing folks who you've never met care enough to take time out of their busy lives to look after you like this is being done now with Tom & Ponch. Wishing Tom & Ponch a full & speedy recovery from their injuries. Larry

    This site will figure the amount needed - http://www.westrocinc.com/Tips/Figure_Concrete/figure_concrete.html 9 yards will be cutting it close but should be enough as long as you stay under 4" thick. Time to set up a work party Dan. Larry

    I just ordered an wide 19 1/2" w/vent. Coming from a Clearview with vent & tint I was a bit concerned about night time glare like SleeperHawk but reading PickingFred's post convinced me. Besides I don't ride as much at night now as I used to so it'll probably be a non-issue. My main reasons for replacing the Clearview is F-4's water shedding abilities and a safer/stronger shield.

    Gotta agree here with Monty. No excuse for such shody work. I'd certainly be letting Hannigan headquarters know what's been going on with Bikes to Trikes. Let hannigan sort out the issuses & get em resolved for you. Larry
