Last Ride on My Bike Today

[Lunchbox1983]

I took my last ride on my beloved GL1500 today. The last stop was me parking it on top of the lift at UNB Customs. The next time I see her, she will be converted to a Roadsmith Trike. The best part is someone backed out of a 1500 kit, so there was no wait time to get one in, I should be on my new trike in a few weeks.

Then we will officially be a 2 trike family.

What fantastic news! And UNB is doing it for you? that is terrific
So..... you're saying that all the coolness of the members here convinced you to trike it?
(Say "yes"! It's a good answer )

 

[Lunchbox1983]

Yes nana

The big issue for to to pull the trigger was hearing the words "I wish I had done it sooner" from so many on the Board here. I could wait it put another 5 to 10 years, but why?


I was able to sell some timber, so my wife got her Stallion for her 50 birthday, and now I will have a trike too on my 50th.

I also made sure UNB knew they were found because they are TRIKE TALK sponsers.

Congratulations! Be sure to post some pictures just as soon as you can!

Dumb question, If you got a kit someone "backed out" of, why will it take a few weeks, instead of a few days?
Installer backed up or ?

50? Your young pups. Once you get on the trike you will never look back. They are a JOY to ride.

Good move! You will never regret it!

Do you live near UBC?

I don'tthink you will regret it.Take it easy for about 500 miles and then let er rip.We have something in common I had to sell some timber to get mine done.

Kit shipped to the installed Friday, then install and paint, plus I am having one or two oter small maintance things done, so I figure 2 weeks.

When I first got a quote it was 3 weeks to get a kit shipped from Road Smith.

I live in Summerville, about 3 hours away.

I was able to sell Hard wood plup this summer when the price was out the roof, so I nearly double my money of what my original timber value was.

Of course Uncle Sam will come calling too for his share.

Now if Pine pulp who just go up.

Thanks, I ordered my Hannigan in May. Had to wait almost 2 months for production date to arrive. Then another week+ for install. Best move I ever made for the age I'm getting to.
