Hello all. I am new to the board and new to the word of trikes, but not bikes at all! I was in a car accident on March 18th 2006 that left me paralyzed from the waist down at the age of 19. I was very much into riding before my accident, got my first dirtbike at the age of 8 and started racing untill the day I was hurt. I had street bikes from 15 on. I loved them and was very upset when I thought I may never be able to ride again. About this time last year my friend Greg and I decied to start building me a trike so I could get back on the road. Greg is an die hard FXR guy and had a built SC FXR sitting in his shop that had no home. So I got that bike and tore it down and this is where it all begins!
That is what I started with after Greg and I tore down a cherry FXR! It became time to start ordering parts and figuring out where to go with this project. I did not want a trike with a big rake, Im not really into that, so short and stalky was the look I was going for. The front end that is used is from a Harley FXDX, the rear end is a Mystery Design chrome and polised unit and mounted to that are 18"x10" American Racing wheels wraped in ME880 300's.
