Corbin V13R Reverse Trike

Quote:
SAFETY

Designed with safety in mind, the V13RŽ is build around a very solid 1.5" tubular steel frame. The chassis triangulated side walls provide a rigid enclosure for the rider and passenger. The 1.75" tubular steel Roll Bars and 3-point seatbelts provide additional safety features.

All wheels feature cross-drilled rotors, offering maximum braking power under any road conditions. An emergency/parking hand-brake is also standard equipment. The V13RŽ's low center of gravity and mass distribution ensure great stability.

SUSPENSION

The V13RŽ suspension has been selected to match the cornering capabilities the chassis geometry will allow and still offer a comfortable ride. The two front shocks are coil over progressive springs. They are adjustable in both compression preload and rebound damping. The shock dimensions are standard motorcycle figures, so you can personalize your suspension setup. The single rear shock is a fully adjustable motorcycle mono-shock that can support 4" of wheel travel without compromise. Fully customizable, this rear suspension setup offers maximum flexibility while allowing a sporty ride.

ENGINE

Powered by the famous Harley-DavidsonŽ Liquid-cooled RevolutionŽ 60° V-Twin engine, the V13RŽ boasts power and torque to spare. The engine developed by Porches for Harley-DavidsonŽ is powerful, easy to control and reliable. Featuring electronic injection the Harley-DavidsonŽ V-RODŽ is EPA and CARB approved. The 76 cubin inches (1250cc) engine delivers 125 HP at the wheel, with 84lbs of torque at 6,000 rpm, representing 3,000 rpm below red-line. This translates into great acceleration and fun. The engine power is always available and seems to never end. Controlled by clutch and gas pedals (just like in your car), the sequential shifting mechanism lets you ride as you wish.

INSTRUMENTS

Using the V-RODŽ intelligent electronic Instrument Cluster, the V13RŽ displays a complete array of information. Positioned in the center of the vehicle with a slight angle towards the driver, all information is easily readable. The controls are exactly where you want them, on the steering column. Whether it's the flasher, the horn or the hi-low beam switch, all controls are where you expect them. Designed as a crossover between a car and motorcycle, the V13RŽ feels instantly familiar when behind the wheel.

COCKPIT

Designed with space requirements in mind, the side-by-side seating is roomy enough for two average-size adults. A grab bar eases your way in and out of the vehicle; a well positioned foot-rest guides your feet when entering or leaving the trike. The V13RŽ is ergonomically designed with its adjustable seats including headrests and adjustable pedal positions. The cockpit is comfortable and user friendly.

DRIVELINE

The V13R uses the V-RODŽ engine's 5-speed sequential transmission with a strap to transfer the engine's power to the rear wheel. The custom designed mechanical reverse gear bolts on directly to the output shaft of the transmission allowing you to back-up on the engine power. Moreover, the strap driven rear wheel provides a clean and maintenance free ride. The V13RŽ uses the same strap-length as the original V-RODŽ for top part availability.
