That... is... ugly! :o

Did you check out their site? some of the other models looked even worse but there was one that looked kinda cool.
I think if they did a drop axle, and some larger wheels it would help scale the bike better.

Do they utilize the stock motor? Or use drive Chinese three wheel setup? We sold the Auto Moto for a while (very poor Chinese quality so we dropped them) and they had two wheels in the back with a tilt mechanism. It had a GY6 150 and i always thought it would be cool to throw it on a small Honda like a spree, create an updated Honda Gyro!

This is my friends Honda Forza that just was finished by the same place. It uses the stock motor and they remove the rear wheel and install an axle with 2 wheels, chain drive and mounting brackets. My Kymco People 300 should be ready this week.

What does this cost to put one of these on your scooter? Good to see someone who makes one of these for the people who want it.

I personally couldn't do the TC conversion , just to in depth if I want to "go back"
I've seen a few of these down here on a variety of scoots.

Not ideal but can be removed. Besides ya get three rear wheels that way, lol.

Mine is going to cost $1,800. It may seem like a lot but my wife wants to feel more stable on road trips. As long as she is happy I am happy.

I thought about that too but after speaking with the guy installing it, it might not be that bad to go back to 2 wheels.

Here kitty kitty... :P :P :P

Here it is all finished.

IMHO! That's simply too cool. 100% head turner.
Please stress to your Mrs. Trikes by their nature are difficult to control. The center of gravity feeling is opposite what she may think, and that is the sole reason people get into trouble when handling them. They all feel like they are forcing the opposite direction in corners, and people tend to follow the feeling, amplifying the problem.
Hopefully she will be one of the few that has a natural understanding, and no fear. Best of luck with it, and many happy miles.

Tow-Pac is an outfit in, you ready for this? Aroma Park, IL. They are making a trike bolt-on kit for wife's People GTi300 but do not make one for the DT300i.

PS: I will try to post pictures of her GTi300 after installation....
