Default Nightster Trike

I had a few request for more pics of the wife’s trike, sorry it took so long. It started out as a 2009 Nightster. The wife is a disabled vet and has neck, back and shoulder injuries that bother her and holding up the bike irritated her injuries she found out. She wanted to keep riding so we decided to trike it. I saw Tx Outlaws trike he did for his wife and really dug it. So I called up the guys at Frankenstein Trikes aka MC Worx out of Ks and ordered the kit with a few upgrades and raked triple tree (must have makes it so much easier to turn). We also added a Hoppe fairing to lessen driver fatigue for her. The fair is detachable so it can come off. I also installed an easy clutch for her, Joker Machine A/C and V&H Short shots.

The trike kit went together like a dream. The wife and I did it in the garage one Saturday. It took about 8 hours or so. The guys at MC Worx are great and the kits are made right here in the USA with quality parts. She has about 2k plus on the trike with zero problems and loves it.

Great job! The trike looks awesome! I like the fairing too. Might have to put one on the wife's now.....
Tell your wife thank you for her service and glad she is able to still ride and enjoy!
