Hi Scott

Good Luck with the project.....

Really pleased to see the Eco Exo being taken up and continued with fantastic to see Stuart's efforts on this continued whilst he's too busy with his Sonic 7s which I also think are super kit cars. Well done everyone! I'd have liked to have taken on the Eco Exo too only couldn't get enough funds together fast enough due to the other projects we're busy with.

Any news on the Steering rack option? I am keen to keep my hands out of the air flow.

Still in Design stage, the first kits come with free heated handlebar grips

First project is to get the MSVA completed,

What news on the MSVA? Are you road legal now?

[Sat351]

All going well, but havent had the Kit for long,
But we have it running but still need to extend the wiring loom

and started to replum the brake system, all looking good,,,

Scott

[Sat351]

All going well, great progress with stock Burgman clocks mounted and wiring extended,

still finishing off to do, brakes and MSVA prep to do then get the paperwork sorted and apply for the test,,,,

free test drives available

[slomax]

are you using the standard handle bar mounted controls or are you modifying for conventional pedal controls? I am very interested in this project but i am awaiting the normal seat/steering wheel/conventional control modifications with great anticipation

[Sat351]

Yes,
We are using the standard bars but with a hydraulic foot brake pedal and cable handbrake unit,
with standard twist throttle, but there is room for a nice foot throttle,

we are also keen to develop the steering wheel design, but i must say a test drive with the handle bar option is well worth it, its a very comfortable driving postion

[Fer]

I am very interested in a test drive, but to be honest am most keen on a wheel, as this will keep my hands out of the cold air, as well as giving me more scope for weather protection.

[Sat351]

With most of the final work completed, we are going to give the Eco-Exo Trike it's first good run around a track on July 31st @ Curborough sprint Mev meeting, call it a shake down before we book the MSVA test, pic's / Videos to follow,

The music is mixed far too loud, can you do another one so we can hear the engine properly?

Nice video and images....congratulations.......

I have always had a very strange soft spot for 3 wheelers, ever since a close encounter with a Triking about 30 years ago.
But whilst this looks very good, what are the benefits, it won't be any more economical or quicker than the donor Scooter and won't be able to filter through traffic like on two wheels.
Wish the designer luck non the less and hope to see one on the road.

Great to see it's got a registration plate on it now. MSVA passed then

[Sat351]

If Only Qdos, Sorry thats just the Plate from the Doner, Paperwork sent awaiting confirmation,,

As its the standard Exhaust why not switch on the the hair dryer when you press play

The only thing that would put me off something like that is that they're CVT auto things with centrifugal clutch, aren't they?

Shame you can't do the same thing with something that has a sequential manual box.
