• There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.

Honda Goldwing Reverse Trike, Can Am Style Conversion, has anyone seen this?

I love the Goldwing. It is definitely the Hallmark of motorcycles. But is it just me or is this conversion well over into the UGLY side of the scale?
 
I prefer the appearance of the Sturgis and Hannigan conversions. :thumbup:
Ron,
You're 100% correct: the GoldWing is the best "Horizon Chaser" on the Planet! :bowdown:
 
With a little work that frunk could be molded to be much more integrated with the bike overall and become a beauty. Assuming it retains the best aspects of the Wing I would try it out.
 
As far as conversions go, IMHO there is only one conversion that I would ever consider, and that's the LEHMAN conversion, and sadly, they sold out to an american group and are no longer in existance.
Champion is the "american group" that you speak of. They originally took the Lehman Monarch II body kit and put their IRS driveline under it, and called it a Lehman. If you google Lehman Trikes, you will find a current internet presence.The address is the same as for the Champion factory.

The coffin nose kills it for me. Add in the fact that local dealers will not work on any conversion, and they say the warranty is voided. All three are deal breakers. :thumbup:
 
It is heresy I tell you, blasphemy at its worst! Siding with the devil himself is a direct comparison, you would be doomed to consider such a beastly concoction! :yikes::barf:

Yes I have seen it, even in person. It is even uglier in real life. That box is so opposed to the styling of the rest of the bike as to cause a real clash of design. Hannigan's front wheel conversion is better looking but still not a real winner.

Good analysis. And I'm sure they worked hard on it too. So it's probably not for lack of trying. But it still looks like welding the back of a Mercedes to the front of a Nash Rambler. It just can't work aesthetically.

The front looks like something a rich person might bury their large dog in. I'm sorry. Maybe others will see beauty where I see a travesty perpetrated upon a beautiful machine.
 
Oh yeah....

Have seen many on the web never in person but they all look like a motorcyle pushing a cart in front of them...:shocked: not pretty....
 
Hannigan's offering:

And the one from Sturgis:

A frunk is available in the Hannigan; I'm not sure that it is available with the Sturgis conversion.
 
A friend on mines Dad did this to his Gold Wing and he loves it. He had trouble holding his bike up but this allows him to keep riding. What ever allows us to keep riding I'm all for it!!!
