Sounds all a bit undrivable


Lol ya noob.lmao I meant 2ft off the ground for designing in it / building frame. (save my back)

Its going to be 150mm - 200mm (whatever i can get away with) off the ground

RE: XUD Trike, MPG Goal. - Piggy - 20-02-2014

Ah fair enough...you need to specify such things!!! Lol!

Be very curious how this turns out.

Why trike by the way?

RE: XUD Trike, MPG Goal. - Danny2009 - 20-02-2014

So he can drive it on a bike licence

You made any progress yet?

RE: XUD Trike, MPG Goal. - Piggy - 20-02-2014

RE: XUD Trike, MPG Goal. - Piggy - 20-02-2014

Righto, I think I understand.
This thing guna have a roof n heaters then?

Or is it just the seating position being the main advantage?

You can ride a trike up to 400 kg

Licences issued between January 1997 and 14 October 2012
B1 3 or 4-wheeled vehicles up to 400kg unladen or 550kg if intended to carry goods

RE: XUD Trike, MPG Goal. - Piggy - 20-02-2014

I understand the licence rules...but trying to see why you would prefer a trike over a bike
