I hate it, it looks bizarre, arkward even....but as others have said, it is probably an avenue to the freedom of bike riding for someone with a handicap, and that's gotta be a good thing.

I'd love to know just how nippy it is.first line in the description: A lovely nippy trike; customised for a weak left arm.
Great for a disabled person,but everytime I see a trike with an overinflated price tag,it makes me wonder if they are taking advantage of those people with disabilities.
This bloke wants Eight and a half Grand for it
After all,without that rear end,the bike would be around the 3 grand mark,so did the conversion really cost at least five and a half thousand pounds?
Problem is it a trikeshop conversion,builder to the stars (billy conollys Oz trike for eg), the OCC or west coast customs of the UK trike world
Like anything once you got a reputation up goes the value of the product
Well I've stated my opinion on 'Trikes' many times on this forum and this abortion of an FZ6 is no different.
Like a lot of you, the ONLY use I see for trikes if for disabled people who still want to ride. Other than that, I just can't wrap my head around why people want to put a 3rd wheel on a 2 wheel'd vehicle and basically destroy all the handling and characteristics of what makes a motorcycle a motorcycle! I mean the 'zen' of riding is leaning into those long sweepers! That's what being on 2 wheels is all about! You can't do that on 3!
So to all the Trike makers out there, I have this to say: "Just because you can, doesn’t mean you should!"
I shake my head at the amount of time, effort and money people pour into making these 3 wheeled abominations.... Want a car, BUY a car. Want a bike, BUY a bike. Just buy a convertible if you want to feel the wind on your head....
