Other than what you currently own, what would be your ultimate Honda Trike? By that I mean what bike, conversion brand & model, options, color, etc.
 
Re: Whats Your Ultimate Honda Trike

I'm very happy with the one I have.
Now if I had to do it all over again, I think I would still stay with a Champion but with the I/S.
The new Motor Trike would be my other choice as I like the new style they just came out with.
For color, my 2 favorite ones are Red or White (must be a Wisconsin Badger thing) ThumbUp

I'd probably go with the newest Wing and that Viper two tone blue and gray. Every bell and whistle I could get.
 
Re: Whats Your Ultimate Honda Trike

I'm also very satisfied with my current 05 Wing/Roadsmith. But if I had to go with another Honda, I'd choose a new Wing (2012 or newer) with another Roadsmith or Hannigan conversion.
 
I would definitely trike a brand new wing w/ air bag. I much prefer the dark red they had in 08, but would settle for the current red Honda color. Having chosen the fully adjustable shock option in my 08, I would include that as well. Completely engaged, the fully adjustable shock replicates the handling characteristics of a solid axle, but with a much smoother ride.

Having carefully researched my choice of kit, I would again go with California Side Car, but my 2nd choice would be Hannigan. I love the wide track and long wheel base of both, but I do did not care for the stabilizer bar configuration of the Hannigan.

I'd probably go with a Honda 1800 VTX and a Roadsmith HSCR conversion. The color would have to be a deep burgundy with a lotsta safety chrome and led lights. I'll go with the V twin design so as to have more leg room over my wing. Ah yes..... Time to wake up Randy. lol
 
I do like my '08 Gold Wing with American Trike on it now that I spent lots of time and money getting a serious axle problem corrected. If I had to do it over again, I would still go with the '08 but would definately go with the Roadsmith kit even though it would be more money.
 
I love the one i got now 2001 gl1800 csc. If I had to pic another one i would go with 2013 Wing with either csc, hannigan,or roadsmith conversion. I really do like the longer conversions better. If money was no object it would have all the bells and whistles.

Mines going to be happening real soon:D 2012 level 1 GL1800 with a Gen 2 Hannigan kit with the whale tail and trailer hitchpepper. I use a Garmin Zumo 550 with XM radio for keeping me on the right path and when just tooling around town I have an Ipod Nano plugged into the USB port located in the tour-pak. I also have the CB for when I'm traveling with my dad, makes the miles go along nicely when I have someone to chat with.
 
We really like our 03 gl1800,with an 04 Roadsmith kit. Like others stated I'd have a few more goodies! But we won't be getting one for long time ( I hope),as ours only had 13,484 miles on it when we got it, so it should out last me! And if I did get another one it'll be a Roadsmith, unless something better comes along then. pepper
 
If it had to be a Honda.
Mine would be a 1800 VTX with who ever can make me one with reverse.
Which as far as I know is ATI.
American Trike
They are why I had bought the Valkyrie originally, but couldn't get a builder here in my part of the world to do it.
The GW was a pure afterthought.

Edit: Looked at MTs web sight guys.
They now offer electric reverse in a lot of models............

I'm not in the market for another Trike, But i happened to see an advertisement for Motor Trikes Razor [gold wing] on page 31 of Octobers Rider magazine, And if the picture isn't a artiest deception i might just bite. :Shrug:
 
I've owned four trikes, three Hondas and one HD TG
First one a Champion, two CSC kits. An 07 CSC now.
As for Honda, they really don't fit me very well, foot position kills me, but if I did a Honda trike, I'd go with another CsC kit with a Eurowing front end...
But I'd like to trike my 2013 Hot White Pearl Ultra Classic with the CSC Daytona kit and. 120 motor with a Champion reverse kit...With every available option...
When the time comes again...oh, the Honda in the garage is the wife's trike...
