Trike Conversion in My Future

Birdman-68 · 10-04-2013, 10:23 AM

Ladies and Gentlemen, I am seriously considering converting my 2008 Nomad to a trike. In a search of the forum I found that there is a conversion made for kawasaki 1600s by a company called Hannigan. I would appreciate any feedback you could provide on this conversion, and pics would be great!

Isn't Hannigan the side car company?

I guess they do those too! But I'm only interested in the trike.

Go to their website and you can get all the information you want. I researched and found them to be the only one that makes a trike kit for the Nomad 1600. Saw them at Daytona. Nice kit and people. If you are having them do the work, it takes about a week. They are in Indiana.

Try and message "Operator". He triked his '08 with a Hannigan kit back in 2011

Be sure and get the steer lite kit installed or you will regret not doing it.

I don't have room for a trike, but if I was it would be this one on ebay.

Thanks for the inputs so far, but I am looking for feedback from someone who has done the conversion. I have searched the web and many forums and found only advertisement pics of the conversion on an actual bike. Strange.

"Operator" hasn't logged onto the forum since 2012. Probably won't be getting any response to a PM from him.

My wife has a Hannigan kit on her 05' Classic.
It's a well thought out and slick conversion.
