Default question

Has anyone put a Frankenstein trike kit on a Harley Fatboy? Did you have to get it put in trike mode or side car mode so it wouldn't shut off when going around corners?

don't know anything about modes on traditional (non Pan Am/Revmax engine) Harleys , Gerald .
But curious what could cause any bike to shut down in a corner if upright?
....unless a long sweeper at rapid speed on a near empty fuel tank that causes the what little gas in the tank to slide over beyond pick-up tube..maybe???
