2012 Hannigan GL1800 Trike Photos

[Trike Talk News]

I got my hands on the first photos of the new 2012 Hannigan Trike. I'm told the trunk will be substantially larger and access will be much wider as the entire midsection width trunk lid will swing down for access. This is the pre-production prototype and there may be some very slight changes to include an updated restyle on the running boards with a possible addition of lighting on them. Very nice!

Re: New 2012 Hannigan GL1800 Trike!

I'm a champion guy.. but, I have to admit the "H" ( Can't say the word ) Looks very sharp. They have really gone the extra mile with the BODY!

I'll also stick with my Champion.
I just don't care for the new 2012 wing:Shrug:

That's a sharp looking machine. The rear looks something like a Batman motorcycle. Thanks for posting those pictures

I am not a big fan of the 2012 honda either.. though I ride one as a trike. I just took a second look at the "H" 2012... The body does not really match the top box.. take a second closer look I think you'll see what I mean.:drama:

I wonder if they are going to change the body style for earlier years??

Mitzie loves this Trike...!!!....I likes lots of it, and a coupla' pieces I don't....will probably "grow" on me though. My Buddy Mike Hilton has a new White 2012 Gold Wing 2-Wheeler that I rode. I was impressed with the suspension changes and the Color Scheme.....just something about that rear light set-up I can't quite get a "warm-n-fuzzy" feel for yet....ThumbUp

Not fussy on it also. Might look different when viewed in person. At least nobody can say it looks like all the other trike kits. Roger

I think adding one of the matching black factory lighted spoilers on the top trunk would tie in the look very nicely as would the Euro lights pictured below. I like it and have a feeling their phone is gonna be ringing off the hook with orders. Variety is a good thing. ThumbUp

Certainly looks sweet.

If I was in the market for a new trike I would certainly give this one a hard looking at.

I guess I'm the lone wolf on this one. IMO it's about the ugliest thing I've ever seen. Seems they forgot the Victory emblem on the trunk.

 

[ted in ncal]

A spoiler under the trunk??????????????????

Hey ... isn't that really the motorbike version of Maximus Prime (and as your grandkids can tell you ........ the leader of the Decepticons) soon to be coming to a big screen near you, in the next edition of the Transformers movie?!?!

IMHO: Hannigan nailed the styling of the 2012's rear end, to a T (which is not 'my' cup of T) but still ........ they matched it very well.

I agree with Zook, it needs the tour pack's lighted whale-tail, and Euro lights added to keep it from looking so ......... schizophrenic.

I suppose if you like the 2012's looks, you will probably like the new Hannigan.

I'd like to see one in the wild before adopting my final position (and although I'm not a big fan, I do think the 2012 GL looks much better in the flesh than it does in pictures).
But WRT this new Hannigan, so far the word ........ "Yuck!!" ......... comes to mind.

Well here goes.
I don't have any irons in this fire, don't ride any conversion or any form of 2 wheeler, but I firmly believe that Hannigan has done a wonderful job on this offering, my only question is do the tail/brake lites during the day and night.

Nice work hannigan!

Seen it up close in Atlanta yesterday...it does have the WOW factor..talked to Andrew Hannigan and he said it had just came from paint to the show...we talked about their websight and he said they were going to be working on it also...the trike really needs to be seen in person...when I walked up on it at first I thought it came from Honda...unlike Motortrike making a spoiler out of the GWs rear tailight Hannigan puts it in the kit itself...the fenders remind you of the GW bags and the lights in them have a great custom look...hats off to ya Hannigan..you can take a well deserved bow...

Good now if they would put these on their web site, there may be some more interest in this area. With no info available things have been going in the competition direction

I was at the Atlanta Motorcycle Show Saturday and the Hannigan folks were there showcasing the new look. I must admit it's pretty sharp!
