I can let mine set 2-3 weeks and go right out and start it. When start I run till the fan comes on 15 = 20 minutes and never have a problem. Nice thing is you can run with nol lights at all and I can not do on the Honda need to put a switch in

Have you got the papers for the trike yet to tag it yet and did you get your license yet? Need to ride that thing and start getting the bugs out of it

Well I figured out where the little chrome buttons go. They go on top of the hold down bolts for the handle bars. They snap into the allen head nice and tight and finish it off.
Mike I got everything all registered and plate can go anywhere now. I went to Progressive they were high I pay $167 a year but I have everything on it.

[mike6736]

Well that is not bad if you got every thing, I just stack medical and liability. Get out there and ride man, have some fun

Alley here are the specs for that charger I told you about, it says on it,charge onley Gel, Sealed or Wet Lead-Acid Rechargeable Batteries. Output 24VDC/4A Constant
You think I can use it to charge the scooter battery?
Mike I have had a lot of rain up here and then the doctor, just been running around don't know where the day goes and I don't want to drive at night right now until I get the feel of it. Also any runs that I have done are close just to see that I don't have any problems breaking down. Heck if you want to come up tell me a day (not tomorrow) and we can hook up. I will PM you my number, John

[mike6736]

John...DO NOT use that charger on your 12 volt battery. Yes we too have had rain so I have not been riding to much, a little here and there when not comming down. Got you PM and know were ya are sometimes I go up to hwy 50 on the Magnum that way to stay off 19 but the best ride is 52 and 41 for me to Brookswille on the Honda. I'll come over one day when the rain lets up. One of my wires to my break light came out of the connector I noticed today when going to the store, darn them vibrations on the back of that trike...

This tread is getting to now it is time to go to new topic undr trikes.

Right now they are waiting for EPA approval. They expect them in July, depending on the EPA.

Great!! And let us know what ALL they did to improve them with PICTURES if you can get them. Tell them your customers want to buy them but they want PROVE OF THE IMPROVEMENTS before forking over 4K+ for them;D

I have quite a waiting list for the 300s right now.

I am curious to the improvements myself but, they have to be extensive if the EPA must reapprove them.

What do you expect them to do to "prove" the improvements?

Your slow today JIM, what was meant by that is to get a list of the improvements so you can tell the potential customer what was done or wasn't done. The EPA doesn't really know that on some the axle can move out about 1/8 of an inch and your HUB starts to wobble and eat away at the splines on the hub. Or the EPA could give a crap about the rear fenders cracking due to vibration, just to name a few.

[leenark]

WHAT? They don't care about our cracking fenders?? Well that's just down right sacrilege. Shoot Alley I'd be surprised if they ever look or drive one at all. vr, Lee

[Alleyoop]

HAHAHA, got that right, they are only interested on all the pollution the MILLIONS of scoots on the road will produce. They don't care that bolts are loose and a wheel may come off or valve stems break off and you get a flat at 50mph NAY.
Alleyoop

[tierod]

Your right there Alley they have no idea how much Pollution cows and pigs make! A GM Rep told me that. They only want to be able to make money. Cutting grass makes Pollution, it's just one big rat race. Like you said they are not worried if your wheel falls off or of stress cracks just make money and then give it to other countries. I better get off this subject before I get in trouble, now I'm pis ed. Good night all,John

[mike6736]

I still say for the price you can not bet them... I have seen many improvements since mine and and not a price difference... Look them over and make some changes and make them safer and better and enjoy the piss out of them...

My 2 cents

Mike
