Some day, down the road, can I convert this to a trike?

Might be kinda small to trike out. The only trikes I've seen (besides homebuilt VW kits..) are GoldWings and full Harley dressers. Not saying they don't exist, just not common.

I would say no it is too underpowered for that.

What if I use a high octane gasoline?

It would still be too small but it would not have engine ping.

It looks nice, hope it has enough power for you. The smallest road bike I've ever had was a 400. I soon traded up to a 650.

Living here, the highest speed I'll probably need will be 45 or 50. The beach traffic prevents us from going over 50.
It's really just a learning toy for me. Something new to play with. When it's time to upgrade, I will be more familiar with a MC have have less anxiety.

It will be delivered today! :cartwheel

Those are likely 450's not 250's. I am sure you could do it if you wanted to.

They kind of remind me of quads with a wheel missing.... looks like they should be running off-road. :lol:

How's the bike going for you??

How's the bike going for you??

I went to a HOA meeting this morning and came flying home so I could go practice riding. I had so much fun! I put almost 18 miles on her and I never left the community. So I guess that means I made 18 laps around here. :lol: I still need tons of practice and I already know that.

But this is sure fun!!

Yes.

Someone on the boards has a kit that would work on this bike. Your rear wheel sits in a "harness" (for lack of a better word) between two wheels.. You ride down the road with all three wheels touching the ground on the back.

Be kinda of silly to spend 20K to turn this one into a TRUE trike.

Check out Hannigan.. They make Trikes and side car rigs and can probably provide you with details as to minimum size/ horsepower etc..

I know a BMW trike can go well over 40k new. Think Bob's has two new demos for about 35K. The bike price is about 20, so you're looking at 15 - 20K for the conversion.

OMG am I tired! :yawn:

I got a total of 35 miles today. I am using some muscles that I have not used in a long, long time. It's all good, though. :biggrin:
It seems my biggest problem is pulling out from a dead stop. Once I get going, I'm ok.

Calgon, take me away.....
Tomorrow is another day.
