    In the time I have worked with Wings I think I have only read of 2 being changed out the part is all but indestrucable

    From every new trike one is removed and stuck on a trike builders shelf there are thousands of them brand new or as near as new sitting that will never be used

    There are a lot of them out there!! Every time HOR runs a batch of trikes, the have stacks of 'em.

    Figuring what I paid for all the stuff I listed above, minus what I would expect to pay for the tire and brake pads alone, the rest (swingarm {w/bearings}, rotor, caliper, rear diff, rear wheel) was obtained for ~$125~.

    If prior bikes I've owned are an indication, I'll most likely will have the 6 for several sets of tires and a set of pads. After that,,,,

When I reach the 100,000 mile mark, I think I'll just buy a brand new bike and start over. I can see buying a glovebox cover or maybe a side cover since the tabs brake easy. Or a bag of those silly push pin rivets that hold stuff together. But like I said, where does it stop?? I'd like to think I bought the best bike in the world and I'm hoping for the best. I guess everyone has a different view on it and it's cool.
    Gotta agree with this. When/if I hit 100K I'll most likely want another damn bike and put this guy out to pasture. I don't think they're handing out any awards for rolling the most miles on a motorcycle.
