    Default Honda Accord trike

    Hey all, new member taking a shot at building my first trike. This car was my daily work driver for a few years, then my son's college driver and now it's back to me. Still runs excellent; has a 2.3L Vtec engine and a 5 speed manual trans. Just finished cutting the front end free last week and am planning what to do for a frame.

    welcome to trike talk. Pat......it looks like you took the plunge. It will be interesting to watch the build, any ideas for the front end?? Larry

    Thanks, Larry. I'm looking at leading link and girder designs; I like them both. This whole motorcycle build direction is new to me so it's cool to try something different. One of my questions has been that since I'm using a manual transmission I'm wondering about the feasibility of being able to work a standard five speed shifter while controlling the bike one handed. I've only ridden a handful of bikes over the years and I'm wondering about the safety of using handlebars one-handed while shifting with the other, especially with my wife on the back. I'm planning on all foot operated pedals so I think that will help. Any suggestions?

    welcome to our madness lol

    personally i would go with the LL you can easily change the trail, ride height, shocks and springs ... and will be a lot more rigid than the girder (not the ride) many trikes are manual... with the right geometry on the front end you should have no issues

    My first build was a vw trike with a manual shift and leading link front end, with the front set up correctly, holding on with one hand while shifting was not an issue. I currently ride a v8 trike that I hope to switch to a leading link front soon. Build to your needs and post pic.
    Just me, myself, and I riding my V8 on the Rez.

    falconvan......check out last winter trike...I used a homemade leading link with a springer look built in 2 in. of trail, steers great light and stable...5 spd. left hand shift, no problems w/steer and shifting.....only thing to watch, if backing up fast, hold handle bar with a stiff arm.....it will want to turn!! stable forward....backing up...not so stable....the nature of the beast! also all foot control....sorting out some engine issues, and needing fenders and body panels.....Larry

    Started on the engine cage, not the prettiest but I've got one side mocked up and tacked together. As soon as I get a motor mount built for this side I'll start on the other side.

    Saw a trike a guy made from a Pontiac Fiero.

    Engine is in the rear. Technically a mid-engine since engine is in front of the tranny.

    He did a real good job on it.

    Maybe he is on this board and can post some pics.

    I watched a bunch of videos on You Tube from a guy called Onetonmagoo and he built a Fiero trike. Very cool bike if its the same one.

    I'm assuming, since you speak of left hand shifting.....that the exhaust manifold and sparkplugs are on the rear of the trike??

    No it's on the front side of the engine.

    think I got confused......thought you said, left hand shifting, but you didn't.

    So the transmission will be on your right hand side, if you sit in front of the transaxle??

    I'm not really sure yet, Larry. I'm not going to have any controls on the handlebars; just going with a standard three pedal setup so it could go on either side. I would think having it on the right would feel more natural but I'm right handed so I don't know if I should be holding on to the handlebars with that hand while I shift. Or maybe it doesn't make a difference; what have other guys done with their shifter?

    the 2.2 chrysler 5spd that i used' has the transmission on the left side.....with me sitting forward of the drivetrain. I mounted the shifter on the left and am running 1/2 in. aluminum rods/with small heims for linkage. had to fabricate some mechanism on the transmission itself. works good, easy to get used to. am using push and hold buttons on the handlebars. down shifting and signaling for a left turn is a problem, thinking of getting a timed setup for signals or mounting turns switches on the shifter?? am busy with fuel injection problems at the moment.

    I've the cage tacked together; time for some finish welding plus adding some gussets to the strut and upper control arm mounts. Then I think I'll start getting the frame rails figured out.
