Honda Gold Wing description
THIS TRI-MAGNUM TRIKE WITH REVERSE GEAR HAS A TIMELESS EYE-CATCHING AERODYNAMIC DESIGN, AND IS READY TO RIDE. These trikes are desirable and hard to find! This vehicle is powered by a 1982 Honda Goldwing 1100 in very good running shape with only 43K miles. Assembled three years ago by its owner, a 40-year machine shop worker, the Tri-Magnum design plans were ordered from their originator, Robert Q. Riley Enterprises. It has a lightweight but stable fiberglass body, pop-up lights, multifunction GPS speedometer, REVERSE, and seating for two. Everything works. Tri-Magnum trikes were featured on the cover of Mechanix Illustrated (see photo.) This excerpt is from the magazine article: "Driving Tri-Magnum is as unique as the vehicle itself. Shifting is done with the
jet-fighter-style control stick that emerges from the floor between the occupants. The
control stick carries the handlebar controls from the motorcycle, which are now stacked
back-to-back against each other (one from each side of the handlebar) where they are
within easy reach. The motorcycle clutch lever is also mounted on the control stick. To
shift gears, grab the control stick, squeeze the clutch lever, then move the stick either
forward or rearward, depending on whether you are up-shifting or down-shifting. The stick
is connected via a short link to the foot-lever that is normally used to shift gears on
the motorcycle, so the shift pattern is identical. Accelerator and brake pedals are
mounted on the floor, just like those of a conventional automobile. Due to its forward-biased center of gravity, Tri-Magnum
understeers, just like most
conventional automobiles. Pushed in a turn, she will
float to the outside, rather
than spin out, unless of course you push past its limits.
During a three-wheel-locked stop, Tri-Magnum's rear floats slightly to
one
side, then rights itself and floats slightly to the other
side, with no tendency to swap
ends. Because of its low center of gravity, which is
located forward near the side-by-side
wheels, the margin of safety against rollover is
equivalent to a standard four-wheel family sedan." This vehicle is being considered for sale due to health reasons, and will sell for a fair price only. Much work and pride went into the building of this futuristic-looking and fun machine. Please write in with questions and leave a phone number if you wish to discuss reserve price or a possible Buy It Now added to the auction. I encourage very interested persons to contact me early. As with all my vehicle auctions, the winner must be happy in person with the vehicle, so bid with confidence. (No long joyrides please.)
