That is really amazing :applause: I love the functionality of the galley, and the extended length for sleeping. Somebody did a lot thinking on this build. Take note of this design if your pulling with a tiny vehicle :beer:

Very nice.. I've often thought about a self powered t/d. Cool that I get to see one actually built.

This one's more my speed.
The Russian one is very cool, but that wimpy 250, or so, two stroke kills the deal for me

I have looked at that pic, that I posted above, for a few years. I look at my V8 bike, sitting in the garage, and wonder how much longer will I be able to ride it. I'm going on 66.
Let's see, stretch the wheelbase, convert it to a trike and build a cool retro, Flash Gordon, mini motor home. Of course, by the time I'm too old to ride a two wheeler, I probably won't want to get involved in a major build.

I have so many things I want to build in time.

This three wheeled TD could push some others back.

Grandpa had to give up riding two wheelers at 99, but he kept riding with training wheels. He no longer had the muscle strength needed to balance the bike. His retirement hobby was restoring Indians.
