Mornin Alleyoop,
What is that box called that is on the back of your trike? Wouldn't that work as a back rest for a passenger??
Would that bolt onto our trike???

[Alleyoop]

Those are called Trunks to carry stuff. And yes they also act as a backrest for passengers, they have padded backrests that you put on the trunk for the passenger. You can get them in many sizes, some with lights like mine, mine has turn signals and stop lights and running lights, the more lights in back the better I say so the cars can see you better and when your stopping and or turning.

Do you think this one will bolt on ours?
The reason I'm asking is I'm trying not to spend money on something that won't work.

no lights and the real cheap ones tend to vibrate and crack. reflectors don't work during the day if you are looking for safety.

On his Trike there is not much rail mounts in the back to mount a trunk. Here you can see HIS trike they have an extension to mount the trunk. Now the Trunk CAN be mounted on the back rail by drilling some mounting holes but depending on the passenger if he or she is wide bodied will not have enough room back there.

Yours does not have a rail system like this to easly mount a trunk.

See Boys, that's why I asked on here. I find out all I'm gonna need to know before I spend the money.
The Wife is a lil thing, darn near 5' tall and 125lbs.

Since under there is metal and it is also holding the seat you can get two pieces of flat iron and bolt them to the two holding the seat and make your own extension.

Or you use those two bolts holding the seat and mount the trunk and see if the wife will fit. After seeing your wife I think she will fit without an extension but to make sure bolt the trunk down using the two bolts holding the seat and have you and her sit on it.

P.S You have a very nice spread there Hobbs and some very nice places to ride I can see those ATVs come in very handy and are a lot of fun.

Ah nothin like a little size 4 on the back,,,,,the bike doesn't even know she's on there

[hobbles]

Thanks Boys, I think I will order one and make it fit.
The ATV sure does come in handy for hunting and getting fire wood.

[hobbles]

I'm trying to find that extension for the trunk now.

[Alleyoop]

Well you can find something that you can modify or get a hold of RAPIDREPAIR(JIM) he can order that mount for you from IceBear.
Alleyoop

I could not find the mount but I did find How you mount it on your trike that the seat is actually attached to so the Seat can rotate back without the Trunk going with it.

[hobbles]

Thanks Alleyoop, I sent him an e-mail.

[hobbles]
