    Greetings from North Texas

    I am in the process of getting my first trike. I was considering putting a Hannigan conversion kit on a Triumph Rocket III. I talked myself out of doing that and am now going the HD route. I tried out a couple of trikes at a local store at noon today: 1. 2006 (21xxx miles) with Lehman kit...
