A Helix in the process of being modified for a custom fit around a "less than tall" rider. It's fitted with a second trunk, full backrest, and a lower seat to better fit the rider into the bodywork. The windscreen is less vertical for improved aero yet still blocks the air from buffeting the riders helmet. The instrument cluster is relocated slightly for best visibility with the riders expected head location. To keep the weight down, urethane foam core composite was used instead of other materials. No gel coat was used. More at: http://home.earthlink.net/~miatav9/

This is my 3rd recumbent that I have done over the last 25 years. It is a '99 SV650 with a '96R1100R telelever front end. It loves canyons. With 5 gallons under the seat plus the stock tank, it will get about 500 miles on a fill. It is a pleasure to ride! Stuart J. Herschleb

I don't know anything abut this? Just found the picture. Any ideas? IK Must be very closely related to the black Stuart Herschleb machine, if not the same one repainted! PNB

John Ewans' beautiful standard of finish is exemplified in this rear shot.

Note use of jackshafts/cogs to route chain lower under seat and the cooling fan!

The seat back and cushion are missing

Your feet rest against the sides of the air cooled engine; could get hot!

This sketch by designer John Keogh is reminiscent of the original BMW C1 TTW (Tilting Three Wheeler). It also uses the same leaning front wheel, upright pair of rears as the lightweight Honda Canopy 50 and the 600kg Carver. (Pic courtesy Paul Blezard Archive)
