Saw one of them at the Westpac Helicopter funraiser run last sun.
Spoke to the guy and his wife who owns it.
Its a import...... think he said from Germany.
Seems there are a few already here in NZ.
Damn nice looking bike it is too.
A few mods would be needed for the front seat to accommidate John and to fit his wheelchair.
Good on ya John, clearing the decks for a new project.
I am only sad that I couldn't get the cash together to buy one of your minters.
All the best mate

what ever you do, make sure it has enough power to wheeile... I think 300hp should do it.
Then I could get a Kb Tshirt, move to Timaru and become a full time crossdressing faggot
Mate. Totally sucks, I can only imagine how helpless you feel. All of us on KB were pinching ourselves hoping it wasn't true when we heard of your bin, and some of us are still pinching ourselves now wishing it didn't happen to such a good bloke.![]()
But chin up mate. No use grumbling about the past, nothing can change that now. Time to look to the future with your lovely lady beside you... and three wheels under you. I knew you wouldn't let it hold you back mate. Rock on.![]()
Soapbox house of cards and glass, so don't go tossing your stones around.
You musta been.... high. You musta been...
Sad to hear all your bikes are going John.... But absolutely fantastic to hear about you're want for a trike.... I can't wait to hear that you're back out there again.... Its just awesome..!!!
On another note.... Will be back down in the Naki in June.... And would love to catch up if its okay with you....... I miss yah... *HuggerZ*![]()
I saw one of these ages ago, they look a bit naff but you could probably do something better with gruntier scooter engines and a space frame chassis or something.

You've probably already seen it, but http://www.thedma.org.uk/ should have info and advice etc on trikes / conversions. They raise money to help finance this sort of thing in the UK.
Remember seeing an article on them on TV in the uk a few months back.
or what about a busa powered MP3 clone?
It has to be something that I can sit relatively upright which was why I was thinking about a hornet. However it also has to be big enough to have my wheelchair on the back and I'm getting a fixed frame and not a fold down chair...
Those who insist on perfect safety, don't have the balls to live in the real world.
Good to see you looking to the future John. Radical life changes do suck, and I understand its tough. I have no idea what you are going through but I'm glad we've still got you with us.
My cousin is the Chairman of Ulysses down here; he had to move to a trike as he stuffed up his leg and still enjoys his Goldwing trike.
The good thing about stuff on the 5 year plan is that it usually happens sooner.![]()
And I to my motorcycle parked like the soul of the junkyard. Restored, a bicycle fleshed with power, and tore off. Up Highway 106 continually drunk on the wind in my mouth. Wringing the handlebar for speed, wild to be wreckage forever.

Some of these modern high performance outfits are really hi tech & as fast around a race circuit as solos
ITS NOT GETTING WHAT YOU WANT,BUT WANTING WHAT YOUVE GOT

John, I know that nothing much I can say will make up for the loss of your favourite toys but we do promise to take really good care of her and give her lots of extra TLC...
Glad to hear your looking forward to things to come. It was lovely to meet Donna on Saturday, hope we didn't hold her up for too long.
Hey John, great to chat to you on the cell ph yesterday whilst a few of us were at Paeroa street racing.
Le me know when you get back to NP, and I will somehow make that trip down there to see you and Donna.
