Simple reverse trike

Post by dieselbikin »

This one has me thinking. I love the Roopod, but I don't have the skills or money to build a vehicle of that caliber. However, I could build this:

Cool! Still a relatively complex vehicle, although I really like the http://www.rqriley.com/u-car.html . I probably should have mentioned I would have put body panels on the http://pilch.org.uk/cmdt3/ . Being it is winter and been raining every time it gets warm enough to ride, I'm putting more thought into enclosed vehicles. The reasoning behind 3 wheels is that it is still technically a motorcycle and easier to register/insure. Once it strays too far from being a motorcycle and using the original bike as its basis I may run into trouble. I need to do more research I guess. Thanks for the lead.
