To be clear---I'm not trying to sell anything, nor am I looking for money from anyone. The MC d300tkb seems to be a reverse trike that frequently exhibits all of the ills relative to reverse trikes, and I am only looking for someone with one of those trikes to make and try out the cheap modifications. That person, if they choose, could probably make a small business making the mods for the Sunny as well as the Piaggio MP3, Peugeot, and even the new Yamaha Niken that is using modified Ackermann steering
My idea is a missing link to front steering linkage that should eliminate shimmy, wobble, alignment woes, and greatly reduce front tire wear to the point of being more like a two-wheeler tire wear (nearly double).
I'm not interested in patenting it, but, assuming it works, I would make it public domain. Anyone following the patent action in the U.S. will understand when I say the patent system is broken and it will likely cost more to defend than can be received.
As a last resort I may be willing to buy an MC D300tkb on the CHEAP to be my test bed.

I sure hope some of you still check this board.
I have no idea if the trike is still being manufactured. But the front alignment issue intrigues me. All leaning reverse trikes have accelerated front tire wear. I believe that I may have a solution to both tire wear and shimmy. if anyone cares to email me (lmarxsen@yahoo.com). Hint--- think semi-free-to-caster.
I also may be interested in buying a sunny D300tkb for a test mule.
