Re: A-FRAME Goes Legal

Very ingenious Tony!

I'm tempted to build in a similar type of connection to my brake pedal as I'm still at the bare metal stage with my chassis, pedal box etc.

Re: New Owner Jdtwoplus

If it's the black Type 4 I saw in Alan's workshop this afternoon it looks very nice! Hope to see you on some meets.

Re: Trifles for December 2019

Re: Dreirad Treffen 2019

I'm going to book to the Harwich to Hook of Holland ferry for this meet, probably going out on evening crossing on Thursday Sept 3rd Sept but not sure when to head back. Are there any other Trikingistas planning to use the same crossing as it would be nice to go out in convoy?

Re: Steering column UJ

On my current Type 3 build and my previous Type 2 build I put a small packing piece underneath the lower steering column mount which had the effect of raising the shaft height into the top UJ, thus evening out the angle of both UJ's. However, if you're able to put the steering wheel on at this stage...

Re: New Member, potential buyer.

Hi Tim, welcome to the fold! I'm up the road from you so to speak, being just south of Norwich so if you're ever this way feel free to pop in. I've just sold my Triking but am building another, I also have a home made trailer that I've used a lot abroad.

Re: Dreirad Treffen 2019

There should be several of us from the UK in 2020, I for one have booked the hotel for the meet already. There is the small matter of getting my new Triking built in time but since the May meet is my deadline it should all work out!

Re: T3 v T4

Interesting read and having driven a Type 4 too I agree with the comments. So far my Type 3 build has Type 4 pedal box, Tye 4 front suspension including hubs and wheels and Type 4 collapsible steering column. Personally, I prefer the appearance of the original Guzzi engine and I too, like the snugne...
