Re: how many aussie members
hey richard i,m steve and live on the gold coast. i understand what you mean about the roads but i,ve ridden a few rough one,s on my trike and i reckon from gympie across to gayndah would be the worst. rode up to o,reillys a few years back and wasn,t that a mistake. i was totally stuffed by the time i got there. how many bloody corners on that road, i reckon it would have to be around 500 from bottom to top, what a mistake that was. i ride a xv1600 roadstar with an eagle trike swing arm conversion and a cut down mini minor body.

Hi all.
I'm Rick and I live in the Hawkesbury in NSW. I ride a shovel trike. Corners and back roads are hard work, but OK if I ride slow enough. I've ridden to queensland, victoria and lots of places in between. Hope to head up to queensland some time over the next few months.
Cheers,
Rick.

Re: how many aussie members
Hi Guys
Just came across this Aussie section and thought I'd join in. I'm Kevin, I live in Surfers Paradise, Gold Coast, Queensland. If you're on the Coast and want to go for a ride let me know. I prefer late starts, a coffee stop or three and enjoying the scenery on highways, byways and back roads. My ride is a Harley with a Motor Trike conversion by Eagle Trikes at Burleigh.
Hope to see ya'll on the road one day.

Welcome Loose Nuts :wave4: Noticed on your post you say corners are bad for you. Is the trike raked, or does it have an E-Z-Steer fitted?? Makes it feel like power steering. My Ultra Classic with MotorTrike kit has the E-Z-Steer and she corners real good.:D
Re: how many aussie members
Hi Aussie Annie. Yes, it is very raked. It doesn't have EZ Steer, nor does it have raked tripple clamps. The frame is raked. I've forgotten how to post pics on this forum. There's some pics in my intro. Here's the link, hope it works.

Re: how many aussie members
Hello all, Thought it was about time to get off my ass and say hello. I'm not much of a forum person for no other reason then I just don't seem to find the time..? Also my wife works from home and spends a lot of time on the computer and I can't complain about that as she keeps me in the lifestyle I'm accustomed to....:cool: Yep... I'm retired..!!ThumbUp I'm an American, though I have lived in Australia for 40 years and I live in the Hinterlands of the Sunshine Coast. My trike is a 1996 Harley FLHT fitted with an FBI conversion and a Revtech 110 motor. We don't ride as often as we would like to ( refer back to wife's work commitments...) but we enjoy the trike immensely when we do get the chance. I'll do my best to keep and eye on happenings with TOI Australia but I can't guarantee how successful I'll be..!!:Shrug: Cheers all and ride safe, Bob
