tilting trike from a scooter

[hodala]

hodala, i think he wants to know if the rear tire wears out faster or slower because of the titlting and the 2 wheels up front as opposed to one.\

on another note i checked out the material on your website and i really like the mini kart section. Extremely well job on the animations. 5 stars!! i am wondering if you would be able to make some plans and give them to me? id be glad to be the first person to make your product as i need a new project and something like that is what im looking for.

2 small F tires with 1 bigger R tire will be fine.

Thanks!I wonder if I had enough free time to do such free jobs now!
Oh!there is a update version

You did a good job there. Well done. How does the scooter handle?

all people first time ride on it feel suprisingly light and agile,they might thought it should somewhat like ATVs;somtimes when I finished road test and ride on my old Dio50 right away, really feeled heavier handling than the trike

just in time to join anual meeting in Kenting for trail riding to test the trike in moutain

Wow!! That is a lot of bikes and Quads! All that rain must have made a lot of mud

How did it go with your trike? Did it perform well?

No scooters climbed up that muddy slop trail except my trike
,finally exhausted in pushing scooter then get back down

rod-end joints got sticky by mud water,handling feeled heavier in last stage,I'll do some encloser work next time and test in rainy days

Adventure in riverside & beach

cool trip

would you be able to design your own plastic nose piece to cover the front end and make it look a little more like its fitting

You already visited my blog,should know I'm not a Plastic surgery's doctor,my duty is to build bones & muscles

Replaced front wheels with used knob tread ones,went again to riverside today

hodala, do you have plans for sale?

Don't know how to handle that kind of Biz.,I don't think most people will do it well by following plans to buid tilting trike,it needs more accuracy in geometry than car chasis,not so easy build process in details

 

[hodala]

next project would be a tilting quad with dual Dio engines,and then- -dual Dio mini kart

Very nice bike, I think something is lost in translation, what j.concepcion54321 was saying is that he thinks that it needs a front fairing nose cover, to make it look like it was a factory made bike.

Thanks! I provide kits (#18 photo) to modify a scooter,one can do any plastic work by himself,Ruckus will be a little easier to find for guys I think.

i love this! always wondered how hard this would be to do. your work is impressive! how much would kits like this cost? i dont think it would be hard to convert any moped or scooter to three wheels. my mom said something about riding a scooter but didnt like the two wheels part.

the tilt brake is very impressive looking, but what exactly does it do? is it like a parking brake? or do you hold it at stoplights?

If you do all the parts DIY work,got to simulate all motions in 3D models before machining parts, Since no one as I know sell kits,it can't be cheap unless a replica of Chinese manufactory,now I know kits biz. may not be a good idea,it's not difficult to put a kit onto a scooter if you have car chasis knowlege
tilting brake is not neccesary,a little limp guy ask for it for hevy traffic when he need to stop very often

 

[hodala]

let me illustrate with picture;a couple of month ago a Chinese Draughtsman of bicycle plant ask me to give him my design(few of them realized "design" is worth of pay),if I won't ,he could also draw the same fuction as my pics,then proudly showed me what he had done 2 days later,as you see,the linkages almost moved to the limit just only got slightly tilt and turn of the trike,what else those don't follow steer&sus. geometry rules obviously

you guys certainly not like that man of copyer kingdom do such innocent job,but it demonstrate simulations of the mechanism is an essential

I agree that plans/designs are worth all the effort you put into them.
