1st ride with Motor Trike

Picked up my Goldwing today after having the IRS Motor Trike conversion installed. I rode it the 40 miles home and was very pleased. During the ride a sudden 50+ mph cross wind tried to blow me off the Interstate. Scared the chit out of me, but the trike remained very stable. If I would have been on 2 wheels, might have been more exciting.

I am somewhat mechanically inclined, but I certainly wouldn't try to do this conversion myself.

I live in South Dakota, I didn't want any of you folks down south feeling sorry for us cause we can't ride our trikes. It got up to 50 degrees today. I also wanted to give some of you old farts something to look forward to, I am only 69.

If someone wants to tell me how to post some pictures, I might try that one of these days.
