They have had a kit similar looking where you just hooked two extra wheels to the back and actually had four wheels...this one looks nice...

Must have a rear mono shock set up; clearly a show bike with a "clean" look.

I couldn't image how it would ride at speed....

Thanks for sharing.

not my taste but there must be demand or it wouldn't be produced

Talk about "mixed messages"...

[SPECTACUALR SPIDERMAN]

ok, let me rephrase, that design standard trike & scooter are not my taste, really don't like the way the rear wheels sit

[Bob Denman]

Did you re-phrased due to my comment?
I actually meant that to be applied to the picture that Dan posted.
Sorry...

I am not a fan of the look with those back wheels sticking out. It kind of looks like one of those Harley "suicide" trikes (not tri glide) that we see around here once in a while.

I looked for pricing--but could not find that amongst the information.

Also guessing that it would void the Honda warranty and preclude the dealer working on the bike if needed. For me, more questions than answers.

If that whole shaft rotates, I would have to have to fill that area with luggage or a protective step shield...maybe since it's a Honda they could call them step wings. I would need that placebo effect.

I don't think the warranty would be a problem. Honda has been honoring Gold Wing warranties for years on Gold Wing converted to trikes new off the showroom floor. They just don't cover the trike stuff.

I find the concept really interesting. I can't tell if those are axle housings or axles. It appears to be chain drive. If those are the actual axles yes I would want a set of bags in those spaces also. They should be there anyway. It does make it look kind of like a Frankenstein Conversion for Harley's. In which case if similar those would be housings.

Newbie here, had a voyager kit on my 1600 Nomad this summer (3 wheels in the back) and hated the ride. But my knees are slowing going on me and got a RT the first of this month. Test drove the spyder and a regular trike over the same roads and just felt the spyder was more stable. I still love the look of the old trikes but I had to think about what would keep me riding. You can't ride looks, and if you don't feel like you can handle the bike it is time to park it. And that is what forced me to make the migration. Already put over 600 miles on it up here in New England as the temps have been dropping. Love the heated grips and I have the heated seat as well. Fell much safer with the leaves on the road than I ever did on 2 wheels. Your bike looks great, and as long as it keeps you on the road and enjoying the wind in your face that is all that maters.

Glad that you found us!!

I don't really like the way that looks and I definitely wouldn't like the ride. To each their own though. I have a 2014 Honda CTX 700 which they used for that conversion except mine is a manual transmission. The pegs are way too far forward for me even after putting on floorboards. If you are shorter (I'm 5' 4") I wouldn't suggest thinking about something like that unless you like your legs really far forward. I'll be selling mine next spring as I just can't get myself to like it.

I do like that there are more and more trike kits available though. Options are always good.

Sorta resembles a crotch rocket with an extra wheel. Not my cup of tea. IMHO.

I agree that it looks cool, but I would still stick with my Spyder. I like having the two wheels in front for better stability, especially in cornering. You remember when as kids we had our tricycles - remember how easy we could tip them? Anyways thats my opinion - to each his own.
