Tom....Welcome to Trike-Talk.......My dream is to Custom Build a Trike named "Long Haul", starting with a New Harley Davidson Freewheeler.
For this Build I would be required to swap out the Seat & Trunk compartment of the Freewheeler with that of the Tri Glide® Ultra, since the trunk of the Freewheeler can not be accessed from the back, but from the top only, and the Tour Pack is also needed.
Now what truly makes this Trike live up to it's name is the Custom Mounting of 2 empty 1/2 Barrel Beer Kegs, on each side of the Passenger Seat, by replacing the Passenger Grips with a stable mounting Rack for each Keg.
The Tour Pack will house a 12 volt Fuel Transfer Pump w/hose & nozzle and it's own battery.
So far, the 2 Kegs, holding 15.5 gallons of gas each, would increase Long Haul's Range almost 1300 miles, but they will also be adding 250 lbs. or more to the weight of the Trike. That's before packing anything for a long camping trip. Add a Tent, Sleeping Bag, Clothing, Cook Stove, Food for a day or two, etc.
We're probably talking another 150 to 250 lbs. at least. Approximetly, 400 to 500 lbs of extra weight total.
Thus I will also be swapping out the M8 114 for the much more powerful SE 135 as well as the Factory Transmission for the smoother shifting Baker DD 7 Transmission.
Once all of these Modifications are completed "Long Haul" will be sent to the Paint Shop for a complete Custom Black w/ Gold Metal Flake Paint Job.
