Motor Trike Inc. in Vehilce Resources Directory

    

Motor Trike Inc. is a manufacturer of trike conversions for touring and cruising motorcycles. Our corporate headquarters and manufacturing facilities are located in East Texas outside the town of Troup. Our manufacturing plants, office, and warehouse facilities encompass 50,000 square feet on 70 acres. Our Texas location gives us the unique ability to design and road test our trikes year round. We encourage you to stop in and take a tour of our facility if you are ever in the East Texas area. We are proud of the product we build and the people who build them. Come experience our southern hospitality! The Motor Trike is a patented retrofit for most popular touring motorcycles. An installed Motor Trike kits adds less than 200 pounds to the original weight of the bike. Information on the size and weight variance on your particular model can be obtained by looking at the different specification sheets that are included in the information in the Motor Trike show room. The enhanced handling and braking performance of our trike conversions in addition to the stability and safety makes the step up to a trike a wise and prudent decision. We use a Ford differential housing on our shaft driven trikes that are modified to meet our specifications. This process is done entirely in our manufacturing plant. We use new axles, ring and pinions, pinion flanges and brake assemblies. The only component that is not new is the actual rear end housing itself. That housing is stripped and cut to a new length. It is sand blasted and then hydro blasted before it goes to the prep room. Next, the rear end is beveled and prepped for the weld assembly area. All the suspension components and tubes are welded in custom jigs designed and built at this facility. After the rear ends are cool, they are removed from the jigs and taken to the rear end assembly area. You will note that we did not mention that the rear ends are grinded after they have been welded. We are proud of our welders and the quality of work they perform. Grinding away poor quality welds will weaken the product because you are removing material. When you look at our trike, we encourage you to climb underneath and look at the frame, rear end, and suspension components. This quality of work and engineering is why we try to have a trike on display at different rally sites that does not have a body mounted so that you can see this quality for yourself. There is a difference, and we are proud to show it to you.
