Meh. Looks better than the new Freewheeler but not as good as a Tri-Glide.
It looks like the installed kit removes the rear wheel and adds an axle, as opposed to the kit that still uses the rear wheel as the power and the "outriggers" as "training wheels".

Pretty yuck in my opinion. Always amazes me how terrible of a wheel choice everyone always puts on the back of their trikes.

Definitely not my taste but it is done well from a pure engineering view. To each their own but if you are going to do this just buy a convertible.

Probably kills it but you could probably carry a bunch of extra fuel in that trunk.

He may have become physically impaired. I've seen & known of many people to trike out their existing bike (because they know it & love it) due to physical issues that would otherwise no longer allow them to ride.
