tri-rod

Well I am looking to find out who made the TRI ROD when they put the independent rear suspension? It has 4 shocks 2 on each side and a big rubber flex for each axle. And it has band brakes on each axle too. I am going to change it to disc brakes and universal joints on the axles. And maybe put a...

Hi over the last year I've been slowly able to work on my BGW tri rod so I figured now that I have a little more time and most parts I'd put up a thread. Here are the pics I have so far

Mid restoration

Not sure of the year. It has an 8 hp Briggs engine that starts and runs great. The body is in great shape , no cracks and has a newer pearl paint job. Seat cover is like new with all the snaps and fasteners present. Like new tires also. all the brake and throttle cables are new as is the kill...

I found a tri-rod today while vintage sled hunting, the guy wasn't sure about a price. The bike is fairly complete, motor turns over and has spark. What would be a fair price?

Picked up another trike this week. I cant seem to help myself. It has a BGW sticker on front, i believe its a Tri-Rod TR-351??? overall it looks pretty nice, body has cracks and a few chips but normal for these. It is missing a pretty key component tho, i need the bracket for the back with the...

I was lucky enough to find a Rupp Tri-rod in good shape and fairly complete but mickey'd up quite a bit. It's got a diff, both band brakes and torque converter. The brakes are both tied to a single hand lever with what looks like jb weld and bicycle cable. The torque converter setup is much...
