Electric Reverse
An unique and cool option we have developed is our Electric reverse system. This electric motor is not just some starter motor, but rather an extremley high torque 12V motor that goes through a gear reduction to produce huge torque. To operate the reverse simply lift the lever on the left side to engage the electric motor's gear directly into the front of the belt's sprocket. Once you've engaged the motor simply push and hold the bike's horn button down to back up. When done, put the engagement lever back down and the horn button will be used as a horn button again. There is a safety built in so if you put the bike in gear while the lever is up, the horn sounds! You'll probably only do that once.

Roadsmith Raked Triple Trees
An option that we offer and highly recommend is our 4 degree raked triple trees. We push the front axle ahead to reduce the trail in the front end. Remember when we call these rake kits, what we really are changing is the trail. We are changing the trail from about 6.69" to 4". By doing this, it acts like you have wider handlebars in the sense that it gives you more mechanical leverage to turn the trike.

Chrome Rear Rims
You can brighten up your wheels with this chrome rim option. This 17 x 7.5" wheel has a split 5 spoke design that really sets off the trike conversion.
|
|
|
Spoke Rear Rims
These real knock off 100 spoked rear rims really look nice with the front spoked rim on many bikes. They are 16" x 7", and a lead hammer is included to remove/ install the wheels.

White Wall Tires
If your front tire has a white wall, you should have matching tires in the rear, right? We offer them with the big fat white walls, thin white walls, or the new super thin white walls on the 2009 models. The tires are specialy made to our specification. The 215/55-16 tires are Formoza FD1'

|
Chrome Bumper
Add protection and beauty to your rear end with our Nerf Bumper. This 1 1/2" chrome plated tube with capped ends is solidly mounted to the trike frame. If you do "bump" into it, it's OK.
|
|
|
Wheel well trim package
This is a 3/8" stick-on trim that goes around your wheel opening. It finishes off the look nicely.
Draw bar
Your kit already comes with the receiver hitch, this is the drawbar you'll need to actually tow.
Trailer Converter
This harness actually plugs right into the factory harness to give you a flat four connector for your trailer.

How does this work you ask?
The easiest way to illustrate this is that it's like having wider handlebars, in the sense that you have more mechanical advantage at the grips to turn the bars.
