A couple of wonderful trike riding friends recommended Trike talk. I didnt think to ask what thier names were on the forum. I'm glad to have a place to go to for trike tips and stories shared.

If you lend someone $20 and never see that person again, it was probably worth it.
Deloris, welcome to Trike Talk!

Thanks all! Glad to be here. Now on to the technical stuff
I joined on the advice of a friend and I know others on here.
I also want to learn more about the trikes before I make the jump to a trike instead of a rocking chair.
Being a 2016 Indian motor trike owner, I was trying to find other owners with the same problems or likes.

Been kicking around the idea of building a custom trike from scratch for quite a few years now. But as we all know, life has a way of getting in the way. A wife, a couple of kids, cost of living in California and next thing you know you have to really think about wether you get just the four pack of toilet paper or splurge at Costco for the 24 pack and just eat less. So, tired of just existing and want to start enjoying life again.
The kids will be her for a while yet so can’t do much about that but California and more than likely the wife will be left in the moving truck rear view mirror (long story). Looking to head down to the Katy/Richmond area of Texas. Family is all there and can make decent living in my trade. Plus my brother wants to partner up on a powder coating shop.
But now, I was reading up on Texas laws regarding scratch built custom vehicles and that you can’t register them there in Texas any longer. That just don’t sound right to me so, while searching for information on this subject I came across TT and I figure this the perfect place for information. Any insight would be greatly appreciated.
thanks

I have been running the same thoughts through my mind. Then I looked at my age, the 3 back surgeries I had, my bad legs from my back along with the cost of buying the materials along with, living in PA, you need to keep track of materials cost and apply for a reconstructed title. Did it once for a trailer I built at work.
I compared that with the cost of buying a used trike, prices are comparibly the same. Plus I don't need to worry about selling my other bike, they are giving me back every cent I paid for it from a private seller.
Rob, welcome to Trike Talk. If you do make the move to Texas, good luck with your move and new adventure.
