Motorcycle Mike

We have you both in our prayers.

Love it! So we will see you at Vogel next year right?

I didn't know there was such a thing as "I just ride too much each year." I've always liked your venture, it should sell quickly.

Yep, Utopia is the way to go.

The only place I found replacement blinker bulbs was at partzilla.

I'm out of town and the trike is at home. I'll take a look Monday. There has to be a way.

You can't get the jack under the frame? I have a Craftsman jack and put it under the skid plate.

I have a skid plate on mine. I think I got it from Carbon One. When just lifting the front, I Use a regular bike jack and lift on the front of the plate. If I need to lift the whole trike I lift the rear first and set it on jack stands then move to the front. I have a stack of 6 2x8s I set the front wheel on. It's not that high but it's a lot more comfortable working height. I wish I had room for a real lift.

So glad you made it out of that. Prayers for a speedy recovery.

I see a few after market Items on there. The trim on the front fender? My side cover is black. The plastic on the bottom of the fairing looks larger than mine. No, now I see it, The front wheel. What do I win?

We've traveled the BRP/Sky Line end to end several times. We both love it. Bad knees and vertigo moved me to a trike back in 2014. Vertigo and two wheels can get real interesting. We miss the two wheels but we love the trike as well.

Me too. Family stuff you know. If not for that we would have stayed longer.

A great day and a half it was. Thanks again for the help with the lights, company and tour. We need to do it again soon.

I have the Michelin commander rear on the front of my bike. I think you will be happy.

I don't know of a tire manufacturer that makes a car tire that will fit a motorcycle rim. I run a rear tire on the front of my trike.

You wont overfill the tank if you wait until you only have 1 bar on the fuel gauge. That's what I do and I often forget about it. The bike will start sputtering when the aux. tank is empty. Turn the pump off and keep on riding. I run 40psi up front and 22psi rear.

Thanks everyone. I ordered the lights I linked to above. I bought 1 long and 2 short. If they are as bright as they say they should be fine. I'll update when I receive and get them installed. Don, I know that bike.🙂

I have an Aluma MCT I'm no longer using. I looks like this one without the piece in front of and behind the fender.

50 plus years on motorcycles before I went to a trike. Seven years on the trike and I STILL want to lean into the turn. Steering is much, much easer when you sit up straight and lock your out side elbow. Your weight and centrifugal force will push you around the turn. You will be out running cruisers before you know it. Your co pilot wont like it but you can.

Hard pass. I have zero interest in sport bikes and zero interest in any electric vehicle.

I found these. I can get them just about any length I need. https://www.radiantz.com/Ampd-Flex-strips-p/288.htm Any body have experience with them?

I guess they have had a price increase. Mine cost $14000 installation included. No regrets here. I had a choice. Trike it or park it. We dearly miss two wheels but you have to play the cards your dealt.

I think it will be a little cheaper to add some lights Joe. Besides, I really like my venture and I've already talked Woody into helping me with the wiring. I can't let him off now.

After leading some group rides last week I was shown photographic proof of how anemic my rear lights are. I would really like the hear about what you've done and where you got the lights. Pics would be great too. Also, my RSV is triked with a Hannigan conversion. Thanks every one!
