Roadsmith Releases Striking New Gold Wing Trike

- Start date
Happen to visit the RS site last night and saw this. I think it mostly looks really good but there are a couple of places I don't like. Overall a good job. I have the HT1800 and other than style change it appears the mechanics are the same; a good thing. IMO, looks better with the two tone paint scheme.<img src="images/smilies/grin.gif" border="0" alt="" title="big grin" class="inlineimg" />

Nice looking, but I still like my 2011 with the chrome nerf bar. Lots of wrap around bumper there.....

<div class="message">I like it with the slope in the rear end. I would like to see how it looks from the behind. I might have considered this kit for my 2012, as I thought the old kit looked more boxy.</div>

</div>Ya know what bothered me more than the boxy look? It was the fact that the top of the Roadsmith trunk looked like is was missing something. Just a large flat surface that seemed to be designed for some kind of accessory. It looked,,, empty, lol. <br />
<br />
So I began to casually look for some kind of add-on. Then I came across Tony's Trike's site and in his inventory, he had a few Roadsmith trikes with an additional LED spoiler mounted on the RS trunk. It looked Great as if it was meant for that location! So,,, I ordered one from Tony, installed it and I'm very pleased with the looks and above all, more lights in the back.<br />
<br />
Now with all that said, if I had a 2012 Wing and was going to choose a RS unit today, I would also go for the new design!
