What makes you grin? Antidote to grumpy thread

[vulgalour]

Now, when you say trike, do you actually mean the bastard lovechild of a Honda motorcycle, 2/3rds of a Reliant, a bunkbed and all the chrome from the tat aisle in Halfords?

[bub2006]

No,started life as a Reliant but many moons ago probably before I was born it was de bodied,front seat and rear bench fitted and painted Matt black. It's a complete reliant chassis with engine and running gear with no mods to chassis. Steering wheel change for bars and a luggage box behind rear bench. Has seatbelts fitted and is on the points system with covering letter from dvla to say what it is and re registered but due to points system keeps its old reg. Still running reliant engine,box and rear axle in the same position as it would be if it had a fully enclosed body. And it's a lot cheaper to buy and insure than a bodied reliant.

[Guest Hooli]

So you just need a big plastic box to make a car out of it?

[bub2006]

May need the box removed and seats relocated but yes, pretty much! At least it's properly registered unlike a lot of trikes with a beetle range,kwak front end and a reliant reg number. Also I'm not as concerned about falling off as I would be on a bike

[Guest Hooli]

I expect to see it at a Powerhouse meet then.

[bub2006]

If it doesn't sell or he gets messed about in next few days it's mine. That is due to me saying I'd like him to let it run on the bay first for a chance to get more for it than I can offer. But if it's meant to be I'll have it. If not I'll keep looking. Make more of an impact showing up on that then my Octavia or avensis!

I should be on the GSX14 when the weather is better so we can laugh at all the car drivers.

[bub2006]

And you can laugh at me not being able to filter. I miss my c90. I shown a fair few big bikes a clean pair of heels on the twisties

Go have a word with yourself Mr hooli

[Bucketeer]

Driving the back roads to work in a Citroen AX for the first time in about a month gave me plenty much grins. I never want to be without a working AX ever again.

I've always wanted to build a trike, I want to start with a 911 turbo body though to really upset people, I'd even be happy with a widebody 911 convertible

If an Ariel 3 is too old fashioned for you, how about one of these?

I like the moped trikes in all honesty. Had rude thoughts about a tomos trike for shits and giggles or a c90 trike but too much hassle.
