Trikes do tend to cost more, here is a 2008 sportster 1200 on UK ebay.
And a 1997 1200 on UK ebay, both are £9995.00

Well that is a Frankenstein trike kit that goes for $6k
But they do not mention if the trees were raked. A must for trike kits.

We had a XL1200C triked for my wife which she is not riding yet. I have ridden it several times and like it. I do not see the need for raked trees, etc. This is a bolt on trike kit and it rides fine. I hope the wife takes to it. If not, off comes the kit and I will ride it as a two wheeler. The thing is there is always more you can do, more you can buy. I had one person tell me that all the trike kits sucked, none of them were any good, the only way to have a trike was to buy the 30K new trike. It is endless.

I like the fact they say it still has a kick stand. I bet that's helpful.

Ever been cripple for long term. Can't walk or wrench on motorcycles.
But. You wanna ride and have a savings account.
It is dealer pricing and at least high dollar mag is on the front end.
Price is right for the right dude out here. Permanent wheel chair bound.
Price on cripple vans with lift kits cost more than stock vans.
