Re: Noobie: lights, spray, can in front of back tire

Neat looking rig Fred. Gotta ask though, how well does the bike stop with only a single front disc on a 1500 cc bike ?

We get all sorts of gray market mini utes from overseas in B.C. It is really kind of sad because the folks in the Greater Vancouver Area whine and snivel about clean air then go out to buy an imported ute that is a major pollution producer to save a buck or two. Some of them are even 2 stroke powered machines. Makes me shake my head and wonder about the thought process for such a purchase.

Re: Noobie: lights, spray, can in front of back tire

Braking on the Vulcan outfit is not it's strong feature, but its adequate. Big fat front tire has a good contact patch. Never had a problem but I drive accordingly. I inquired about an Earle's front fork replacement with dual disk but was more than I could come up with. A serious hack would have such a front-end for easier steering and improved braking.

Mini-trucks will probably never make it to the US if they have to pass modern crash tests required of cars/trucks. But now with modern engines, the 3-wheelers might get in as motorcycles.
