Sure felt like it would be comfortable.  There is a small trunk - not sure if it equals the amount of space in the two saddle bags that are now lost.

I think I would put on king tour pak since rear weight/balance issues are not the same. Might even consider rack mounting rail systems to "tie down" extra stuff.  john

Needs to come with some sort of reverse gear.  How do you back up the extra weight?  Goldwing has an electric motor for a reverse gear.  Simply push a button on the handlebars to push back.  I'm not old enough to need anything like that but I would think one of the reasons of doing of doing such a conversion is to get away from the difficulty of handling large bikes when stopped or in tight quarters.  Are there after market reverse motors for HD's?

A quick Google search returned this - White Brothers Bikes Reverse Gear.

Thought I'd share this one.......What do you think ??

I'd have to check with my wife ... she would probably say "Does this trike make my butt look big?" And of course, that's a lose/lose question!
