TRT: a kit to turn your Harley into a Tilting Reverse Trike

Harley-Davidson enthusiast Jim Harrel always had a soft spot for trikes, but he had never thought about getting himself one until he got involved in a small accident.
Interpreting that as a sign, he looked through the market of the three-wheeled vehicles to find something suitable to his taste, without success.

The reason for that is simple: a trike just cannot lean while cornering, and so he teamed up with specialist Too Kool Cycles to make the Trike of his dreams, and the result is this TRT (Tilting Reverse Trike), a conversion kit that would turn any recent H-D tourer into a fully fledged Trike.

We have already seen Harley-Davidson Trikes in the past, some of which made by the Milwaukee-based manufacturer itself, but there are two features that makes the TRT kit stand out: it has the two wheels at the front (and not at the back) and yes, it can actually lean into corners, with an angle of 25 degrees.
Moreover, it can be taken off the bike in a matter of hours – allowing the vehicle to go back to its original two wheels configuration at any time – and locks the bike vertically for speeds inferior to 10 km/h (6 mph).

Also worth mentioning is the nice ‘nose’ placed in the middle of the axle, which is very reminiscent of the old racing cars of the 50s-60s.
The response to the model has been so overwhelming that Mr.
Harrel and Too Kool Cycles decided to make their kit available on the market.
The market of this kind of vehicles is definitely on the rise, and we are pretty sure that this product will be able to find its own space in it.
At the moment there is not a definitive price for it, but it should end up being between 8,000 and 12,000 dollars.
