I'm getting blank spaces, no pictures on many of the entries.
Here’s my babies on the Dragon
That was wrote in '15, a lot has happened since but not a lot of Trike riding it seems, judging by my mileage then. My bad. Pictures … not for sure they are the same as were hosted on PB ... when it was "affordable". First picture was from "Mall Show" when it was but a bike in '97 ... second is in '04 as I moved it from open carport to a new "trike" room (it had snowed) built as an enclosed part of unused patio off basement under front porch of house ... third picture is from our last multi day trip taken down in NC on Blue Ridge Parkway in '16 (was not in original post obviously, but I had already d-loaded it here so I included it) … last two pictures (#4 & #5) were shot in '15 here at home.Our '97 GL1500SE / Lehman GTL was purchased in late 1996 by a couple up at Luray. GWRRA Chapter VA-R had it's kick off April 1997 in Harrisonburg and first thing almost, they had a Mall Show and "Wife Unit" and I were curious when we got the announcement (we were GWRRA members since 1995, but had never attended any chapters yet) ..... so we went to look at this "Mall Show" and there we met the charter members and I took some pics .... in amongst them was this one of our future Trike.
Very soon, we were attending meetings and then in late 1997, several members started talking "Trikes" and then the fellow of this couple with the '97 retired from USFS and went to school in Canada to learn "trikes" at Lehman. He came back with his project and the first customer were themselves, he triked their '97 in late winter / spring 1998 before riding season got going. This was their personal ride for a few years as he built Trikes for others and in 2004 we bought it.
In addition to all that comes with a SE, it also has a X-tractor exhaust, Back-Off, Comp-u-fire, 6 degree Champion EZSteer, and it came with a matching trailer. I've also moved the travel trunk backwards a little, and recently refurbished, modified at rear, and recolored a magenta leather & black vinyl Corbin Master Saddle for it. I also made a Receiver for hitch options.
… etc …
