Hi
My trike is 2 wheels forward like a hammer head shark rather than tadpole.
The motor is a 6.7" Advanced DC rated at 48 volts and 6 HP.
What happened was I could not resist buying this new motor worth £400 off ebay for £87. It is not quite big enough for an electric car, so I designed the trike around the motor.
Drive is direct to the single rear wheel via a yamaha virago shaft drive swing arm.
I will post some photos when I get round to it.
