New Goofy Canadian Import Rule

Post by CanuckHoss »

I bought a really nice used 2005 57 trike last Friday (other Forum's member) after a new customer fell in love with the V8 trikes his first visit in the day before.

Found out today that we have to add a park brake to the trikes when they get here to have them admisable. The guy I deal with said Boss Hoss had the kits. I have never heard of them.

They are not cheap at all but what do you do hey?

I find it funny we need a park brake on a trike with a true Park.

Oh well...Next time I will figure that little fooopah in to the mix so I won't have to eat it.

Damn Barry ... I was hoping the new Canadian regulation was "Any and all trikes or bikes from USA to Airdrie, Alberta must be brought in by V-MAN" I guess I need to make a phone call to Toronto and see what's up? :goodidea: :usa: :canada:

Glad you heard back from Toronto, at least you got the scoop ... I didn't know BH had a parking brake option either, I never seen one or heard of one before?!

THAT is a beautiful 57 - Good it's staying local to you, you will be able to do all the service work and maybe I'll get to see it next time through ...

I don't suppose they would let you get by with a rubber band over the brake lever? It does the same thing at 1/1000th of the cost and will be used just as often.
Who says building a border wall won't work?!? The Chinese built one over 2000 years ago and they STILL don't have any Mexicans ...
