When my wife was going thru the three wheel obsession, I stumbled onto Keltic Side cars and Texas Trikes. You might check those.....

Did you check out their site? some of the other models looked even worse but there was one that looked kinda cool.
I think if they did a drop axle, and some larger wheels it would help scale the bike better.

Do they utilize the stock motor? Or use drive Chinese three wheel setup? We sold the Auto Moto for a while (very poor Chinese quality so we dropped them) and they had two wheels in the back with a tilt mechanism. It had a GY6 150 and i always thought it would be cool to throw it on a small Honda like a spree, create an updated Honda Gyro!

This is my friends Honda Forza that just was finished by the same place. It uses the stock motor and they remove the rear wheel and install an axle with 2 wheels, chain drive and mounting brackets. My Kymco People 300 should be ready this week.

What does this cost to put one of these on your scooter? Good to see someone who makes one of these for the people who want it.

I personally couldn't do the TC conversion , just to in depth if I want to "go back"

I've seen a few of these down here on a variety of scoots.

Not ideal but can be removed. Besides ya get three rear wheels that way, lol.

Mine is going to cost $1,800. It may seem like a lot but my wife wants to feel more stable on road trips. As long as she is happy I am happy.

I thought about that too but after speaking with the guy installing it, it might not be that bad to go back to 2 wheels.
