          I have seen it.... There are a few similar reverse trikes popping up on the marketplace in the last few years. I've got copies of the plans for such a trike that Harley-Davidson is supposed to market. I haven't looked at those plans lately,but I think it tilts to some degree.

          I spent a lot of time researching trikes as well as a bunch of reverse trikes along the lines of the old 3 wheeled Morgans.I like bikes,but I decided a reverse trike would be a better option,especially the type you set in rather than ride on.

          I decided to build one a few years ago and soon realized that I needed to learn other things first...like welding...before attempting such a project. I could have hired it done,but where's the fun in that....might as well just buy one.

          If I can get around the whacky DMV I've decided on a front engined reverse trike that has a hydro-static drive system. Take a look around this-- http://www.hydraulicinnovations.com/ at the current projects & previously built machines for some off the wall 3 wheeled vehicles as well as a hydro-static 2 wheel drive trail bike and a full sized diesel bike.

              Brian,Jeff & Jeffs Dad have done some amazing things with the hydro-static drive. I've been following their exploits for a few years since before their web site. I have the CD and visit their forum often...You never know what someone will pop-up with. A lot of those guys think outside the box,which makes things interesting.

              Glad you found it interesting....they are a very helpful group BTW.
