| I have noticed that most of the motorcycle trike conversion companies charge quite a bit more for an optional parking brake. i have read that these are required on all three wheeled motorcycles. i don't think that's fair to the companies that include it as standard equiptment. examples: violaters include motor trike, california sidecar, champion sidecar, dft trikes, hannigan trikes | |||
