Landing Gear/Training Wheels or Equivalent
« on: April 07, 2015, 11:04:42 PM »
Is there a supplier in Australia who retails or any suggestions who may be able to modify Landing Gear that has already been installed on a bike?

Regards

Already fitted,...does that mean they are fitted to your ride ,if so lets see some picks as there are a couple
of us with the staying upright problem when not in a forward motion and have thought about this Idea.

If I get to the stage to need some assistance I would get a 4 wheeled motorbike called an MX5. Looked at one already and very enticing. Would have to stop lane filtering but then it got AC and a roof when it's raining but still can wear a helmet or not. Lots of option not available on 2 wheelers or 3 wheelers. And the price is just a bit more then a top bike (maybe just a second hand one will do).

I got one of them MX5"s  for sale right now.
Only had it for twelve months and had a lot of fun tricking it out with a Turbo and aftermarket ECU.and a cruise control.
It has awesome  performance and handling.
I am only considering selling it,
Only because it is surplice. To my present needs
As the son came home  yesterday with a Nissan Skyline R 33 , which is a bit bigger and will be much better for picking up a couple of those  Swedish naughty type backpacker girls that I have heard about.
It is a four seater and so I will not have to jettison all of the groceries and beer if I should ever have the opportunity to pick up one or two of them as I am returning  home from a shopping trip.
So everybody, please wish me luck.

Cheers .
