Thanks for the compliments. Next few weeks are stoopid busy, but will start asking more questions as I get the squawk list worked up.

Have made one inquiry to local dealer about raked trees, but there weren't able to help much due to the age of the rig. Since I am most likely going to rebuild the front forks sooner rather than later (since I'm not totally sure of how the PO maintained it), I would ideally like to make the tree swap at the same time. Have no clue yet where/for what to start looking for the parts.

WVSPORTY, I am in Alexandria.

Thanks.

Yes, that is our Morgan 3 Wheeler. It's a 2013 with a 120 c.i. S&S X-Wedge engine, 5 speed trans, 0-60 in about 4.5 sec, and a whole lot of fun.

It is licensed as a motorcycle.

Great old British sports car/motorcycle. Two seater. Don't see many in this country. A definate attention getter. Didn't they go out of production for a while and have now made a come back??

Jay, without exception, your machines are beautiful to look at; I can only imagine what a pleasure they are to operate. And I especially like the color combination on your Vespa/Cozy rig, very cool.

They are all a lot of fun.

Pete is an a dealer for the Morgan 3 wheelers as he sold the rights back to them a few years ago.

He made the sidecar that is on my Road King, and when I asked him a couple years ago, he told me the story.

They are all hand made by Morgan in England, and are sold through dealers around the world, mine being from Mid Atlantic Morgan in PA.

There was at the time I bought mine, about a 1 year waiting list to get one. I have had mine since April of 2013.

It is nothing but fun. I love our sidecar rigs, but sometimes these old bones and muscles (or lack of) need to drive the Morgan.

We take our pup, Jax with us in what ever we take out, he loves to ride as much as we do.
