Interesting designs, but I think at my age, my neck would tire very quickly on any one of those bikes.

I found another laydown trike. It's from a movie trailer. Only thing i see that might be a problem is no rear fender. Wonder what could happen if you ran across a bunch of nails on the road, Woo Hoo.  SRX660 |

I see a ton of 'potential problems' with the design of that bikini !  |

I was thinking of building one in the prone position, but would stay away from the the futuristic looking ones. A simple one, lay over the motor, not incredibly low, but low enough that a neck rest would be necessary. Long A-arms with pushrod suspension like the Indy racers. Hate to say it, but this design would be a lot slicker LOOKing with an electric motor. Less bulk, and batteries can be moved around for better weight distribution.
And I swear thats a dually rim and a load bearing tire on the back of that trike. Looks like she is gonna feel "sandy" if she spins that rear wheel.

SRX660 That rear tire is a Goodyear G159. Deemed UNSAFE and out of production. Many Class A motorhome issues. It was 34s inch in diameter. And that bikini should have also been deemed unsafe, on the eyes. ;D |

I am progressively building a prone trike bike that will eventually get a motor put on the back. Not quite the horse power of what people on this forum are looking for. Original build idea was for a winter trike and eventually skis are to be adapted to the front forks with a 4 stroke gas engine (Honda clone).
