INTRODUCTION
Congratulations on acquiring your new Motor Trike conversion. Please take the necessary time
to become familiar with your vehicle by reading this owner’s manual. The more you know and
understand about your particular unit the safer and more enjoyable your riding experience will be.
This manual is a supplement to the motorcycle owner’s manual, not a replacement for it. Follow all
procedures required and recommended by the motorcycle owner’s manual.

SAFELY OPERATING YOUR TRIKE
Motor Trike is committed to offering safe vehicle platforms which accommodate user friendly
operation; however, it is necessary for the user to take precautions and follow safety guidelines while
operating the vehicle. In order to safely operate your trike, please carefully follow these guidelines as
well as the general guidelines for motorcycle operation which can be found in the original motorcycle
manual:
 Only operate the vehicle if you have the proper licensing in your state. Most states require a
motorcycle license or a trike license to operate a three wheeled vehicle.
 Always wear a helmet and appropriate safety gear while operating/riding this vehicle.
 Become familiar with the vehicle’s controls before operating the vehicle, using the motorcycle’s
owner’s manual as a reference.
 Follow all traffic laws while operating the vehicle.
 Notice the sticker located on your unit’s fuel tank and/or trunk door inner skin: DO NOT LEAN.
STEER THROUGH TURNS. Unlike a motorcycle, a trike has to be steered through the turns.
Refer to Figure 1.
