I'm not really a trike guy, but if I had to have a trike this would be it.
Looks like they put on Hambly badges and you gotta love those fog lights, without a doubt, the best trike conversion I've seen.

I have a friend that lost a leg in IRAQ , another to diabetes and another that was paralyzed in a automobile accident.

All 3 have been motorcycle riders for over 25-30 years each, they CAN AFFORD whatever they want but still desire the freedom and wind while riding a motorcycle albeit 3 wheels . One of them is worth more then 25,000,000.00 USD. Your opinion is once again based on incorrect ASSumptions.

PaulBlues who is a forum member from Scotland (paralyzed) not only owned a TRIKED Honda RUNE but recently TRIKED a Black F6B,
your comments are offensive to those that have been disabled while serving in the military, have inherited medical conditions beyond their control or by the fault of others in a accident.

Stick to just the F6B comments and try to post something positive.

Terry, you need to step back and look at things from the other side. It's not always like the way you think.'chill/pill'

:footinmouth:


I OWN a TRIKE amongst several other motorcycles, affordability has NOTHING to do with ownership, try pricing out a Campagana T-Rex .... more then many convertibles. http://www.campagnamotors.com/

The above F6B Trike actually looks cool in my opinion. The back end follows the OE lines.

P/S ..... I OWN a TRIKE amongst several other motorcycles, affordability has NOTHING to do with ownership, my Trike costs more then many convertibles.

Too right
A mate of ours raced production until a few years ago with only one leg

As to my incorrect assumptions??????
Only been riding for maybe 50 years and licensed for 45 and in that time have averaged riding 3/4 days a week and still think a motorcycle has 2 wheels

Personally I don't care what the disabled do but a Trike is not a Motorcycle.
End of story
In fact they should not be allowed at Motorcycle events and in fact here in the land down under at most rally's they are not allowed in just like cars.

My comments are not directed at anyone other than to me theirs no difference between a trike and a convertible car.

As to my comments being offensive to those that have been disabled while serving in the military,

I pulled a bloke with the help of a couple of mates out of a pit that went bang and he could never ride again and am sure he would stand by my comments.

And at a funeral I gave the Eulogy for a person I had seen grow up from a boy who served in SASR and rode and thought and said the same as me.
he was discharged because of injuries and basically his body had had enough.
I know after military operations he had been in Hospital 5/6 times
You know of him. It was a mate, a fellow trooper in his team that won a VC (Victoria Cross) in Afghanastan.

Sorry if once again I have offended. As to my incorrect assumptions???????
And you wont agree?????? but I dont care how much someone spends on a Trike even if it is 25 million? 28 million Australian
Or have I assumed that as well ??

I really like the look.If I live long enough and want to keep the wind in my face I will have to go this route.Just nice to know we have a lot to choose from to go three wheels on a Wing.And remind me not to go to a "Motorcycle Event" down under as it does not seem to friendly.Really three wheels pisses you off that much:icon_doh:

One of my friends is worth over 25,000,000.00 and choses to ride a trike instead of a convertible.
Your statement regarding "trikes are just for people that can't afford a convertible" is baseless.
We are all equal, I don't care what you ride as long as you ride.

We had a forum member attend our F6B Rally last year, his father joined us who happened to ride a Goldwing Trike. It was nice to see him ride with all of us and enjoy the weekend with his son as well.

Don't knock the trikes, they have a purpose for many. Let's just agree to disagree :icon_wink:

Ahhh worth over 25 million and owns a trike???? Ohhh Ok

Too much sun Terry, too much sun. Get a hat man!

Those who WISH to ride, but CAN'T, still share the EXACT same spirit that you, me, and everybody else on two wheels shares.

God bless you and your good fortune to be able to ride anything you want. And God bless your ability to discern a man's spirit to determine that he's not fit to ride with you.

Ditto. I have a few friends that are disabled and if not for trikes they wouldn't be able to ride. Doesn't really matter what you think if the law says different.

Texas:
"Motorcycle" means a motor vehicle, other than a tractor, that is equipped with a rider's saddle and designed to have when propelled not more than three wheels on the ground.

Arizona:
"Motorcycle" means a motor vehicle that has a seat or saddle for the use of the rider and that is designed to travel on not more than three wheels in contact with the ground but excluding a tractor and a moped.

Queensland:
If a tricycle complies with the Australian Design Rules, it can be registered in the same way as a motorcycle. It can also be ridden wherever motorcycles are allowed to be ridden. A motorcycle licence is required to ride a compliant tricycle on the road network.

Ohhhhhh
I don't think you ride a Trike
I think you drive them
If I put handlebars instead of a steering wheel on my car?? it would still be a car
3 wheeled cars have steering wheels but if they had handlebars would that make em trikes?????
And God if you believe has nothing at all to do with who I ride with.
And trust me when I say theirs a Zillion motorcyclists out their that aren't fit to ride with me
That's Probably why for the past?????? I have always ridden by myself with super cute pillions
Oh and I'm so sorry I have an opinion unlike some that ??????
But i do know the penalties I'd pay if I lied just to support others about what I really feel and know??
Must be because I come from a land of Convicts that built a country on truth ???
As to the Sun
Well its currently 3.30Am and its 26.5C/84F but I'm inside so don't need a hat :icon_cool:

Reason why is, it seems terry dj is being a bit abrasive.
Not to single out any one member, but I enjoy the tone and
Good natured ribbing on this forum, and the solid technical advice offered here.
Perhaps it's me, that much I do know.

I think the trike is beautiful. Gives me hope that as long as I can sit up,I can ride.
Whether it's a motorcycle or not is moot. It obviously doesn't have two wheels and it's called a trike. Three wheeler.
Call it what you want,I like it and when I'm ninety and want to ride,if the money is there I'd buy it.

Who cares what any bloke thinks a motorcycle is....a trike is....a car .......is a knucklehead with a sidecar a "car"?!? can't be a motorcycle since it has 3 wheels.....
I love 2 Wheeled motorcycles, 3 wheeled motorcycles, motorcycles with sidecars, hot rods, classic cars, boats, campers...EVERYTHING.....who gives a chit what someone thinks of something. The more you talk to a parrot, the more the parrot will talk.
