    I have learned not to use much of first gear to reduce the incidences of wheelies. Second gear (2 speed Powerglide) handles 15 mph on up.

    Very cool! You dont see many Corvair powered trikes. Looks almost like a Craig Vetter fairing....

    It is a Vetter fairing I added on, sharp eye. The trike was built in California by a guy named Collins. I found it in NH.

    Eehhh. I notice wheelie bars. I say go for it. But after the first thousand times, it probably gets boring. Really nice looking trike, though.

    Welcome to trike talk...can't help you with Collins trike information myself but,

    search around for corvair on this site, also you may post a similar question in the vw section as well.

    those guys are very knowledgeable on all rear and mid engine trikes. larry

    This will be interesting .... Just the sort of thing I'm working with .... does this trike have a Corvair Tranny .... since you said power glide I assume so ..... I'm looking for answers maybe you can provide ....

    Since the Corvair motor rotates CCW your motor is mounted on the rear of the trans-axle …… I'll be checking in on what you may reply ….
