New trike owner from Gun Barrel City, Texas...yes it's a real place in NE Texas on Cedar Creek Resevoir. Been riding two wheels most all my life and V-Star 1300's specifically the last 10+ years. The ravages of old age being what they are (coupled with the follies of a misspent youth) finds me having issues throwing a leg over and maintaining a 700+ pound motorcycle upright. When the fair haired one made mention that my beloved bike was sitting in the garage and looking awfully lonely I explained my challenges...Her..."Why don't you buy a smaller bike?"...Me..."Won't really solve the problems"...Her..."Why don't you buy a Trike"...Me hears..."You should go buy a Trike!"...Her..."At least you won't be hanging around underfoot and I can go ride with you again"...Me..."I should go buy a Trike!"
Wellllll the conversation was almost like that...<Diablo looks around to make sure the Fair Haired One is still in the other room>...So the next week I missed a nice Harley Frankentrike at the auction by $100.00 because the FHO was hungry and wanted to go eat...That night I come across my love...2003 Honda Shadow VT1100 Sabre Motor Trike conversion...And just like that I join a whole new world off on a brand new adventure...Picture attached...<Diablo goes into lurk mode>
