Trike kit on Kymco 150
« on: December 18, 2020, 05:25:31 PM »
Has anyone ever added a trike kit to their Kymco? If so where did you buy the kit?

It's likely cheaper just to buy an entire Chinese 3-wheeler.  The 150cc models are regular GY6 engines

I’ve seen a few tow-pals out there.
Not a true trike has three wheels hit the ground in the back.

Not a good idea from safety standpoint---think brakes/steering/drive train not designed for extra strain-----then 150 cc trike=rovin road block!   And remember how your trike tipped as kid?  the motorized ones do the same, except pushers (2 in front, one in back)

Agreed.  The pushers are MUCH more stable.

If you want something truly ill-handling try riding a bike with a sidecar.
In parts 200S and Grand Vista and my motorcycles 2 CS BMW'S and one GS BMW.

Sold-32 Kymco scooters of various sizes this summer.

I rode sidecar outfits for over 40 years----they handle well with proper set up and tow bike.  Some skill required to operate.   No skill they can be handfull.
