How Could I Adapt This Shock to Work?
I was probably just going to be selling on the BMW HP2 front shock that came with the rear I wanted, but it's a nice bit of kit and I'd be
keen to use as much as I can from the bike.
So I got to wondering if I could use it (and another) on the front of the trike!? Thing is, the upper mount is designed for one of BMW's
paralever doo-dahs, so would need some sort of 'collar' machined that would clear the adjuster and connect rigidly to a clevis-style
assembly. Anyone got any design ideas?
Cheers!
It's Evolution Baby!

monoshock front end is ideal for a 3 wheeler!
You'd be surprised how quickly the sales people at B&Q try and assist you after ignoring you for the past 15 minutes when you try and start a
