Motorcycle Trike Conversion/Sidecar Dealer

Since 1995 Frankenstein Trikes co-owner Frank Pedersen has designed and produced award-winning Choppers, Custom motorcycle frames, and Trikes. In 2005, Frank Pedersen and long-time friend Steinar Bergby decided the Trike industry needed the next generation of Trike rear ends. Frank and Stein adapted their experience in design, style, and fabrication to create the revolutionary Frankenstein Trikes Hot Rod Trike Rear end.

The Frankenstein Trike rear end was originally conceived to provide a custom Trike rear end that was lighter, stronger, narrower, more reliable and better looking than what was available. They introduced the 30” Hot Rod Trike rear end and custom bike builders loved it. What they didn’t expect was the overwhelming interest from individuals who wanted to convert their stock bike into a Trike. As a result, they made wider rear ends that are better suited for stock bike conversions. Gradually, with each conversion, they designed swing arms, fenders, fender brackets, and sourced wheels and tires. Within the first two years, they developed kits for most Harley Davidson models. Now they offer customers complete, simple bolt-on Trike kits, that can be installed in one day.

Quality and design set them apart from their competitors. They use only the best components and materials such as Dana differentials, 9” Ford street/strip axles, billet 4 piston calipers, stainless steel rotors, grade 8 or better hardware, and 6061 T6 Billet aluminum. They are constantly adding new products and listening to user feedback and expanding the options available to their customers. Frankenstein Trike Kits are manufactured in Pleasanton, Kansas, USA.

The Patented LegUp™ design was created for those who for whatever reason are concerned about, or unable to hold up these 850 lb monsters as they come to a stop. Older riders, bad knees, bad hips, bad passengers (couldn’t resist!), or any other reason someone might want a little HELP keeping the rubber side down… This will do it!

The unique retractable stabilization system can HELP many riders stay on their bikes rather than giving up the sport they love or resorting to a trike. Using a computer and a pair of pneumatically controlled wheels, LegUp™ deploys these wheels (if desired) as you slow to around six MPH, and automatically retracts them if you accelerate over that speed.

The wheels deploy and retract based on wheel speed; with the .25 second deployment time, we are able to bring the wheels down at a very slow speed (5-6 MPH). The onboard computer controls everything, and a Handlebar switch housing with LEDS allows the rider to communicate with the system and allows the system to talk back!

The wheels are mounted under the rear floorboards, and tuck up neatly just in front of the bags when not deployed, allowing the bike to be leaned and handled exactly as it always has. You can’t do that with a trike or other hokey outrigger systems. The installation Requires no major modifications to the existing bike at all !!
