Dutton 1600 Mexico.


I still miss this little car. Rough as, but so much fun to drive. 100 bhp and a live axle makes for some interesting handling in the twisty bits.




If my trike is anything like as much fun to own and drive I'll be over the moon.

I've had the trike back out to take pictures from a few different angles so I can use them to look at the lines on the trike.

Steering wheel set up. My steering wheel fitted with Kliktronic paddles, a button for the horn and a switch for the indicators. I still have to get a high/low beam switch fitted with a new cable and socket to accomodate all of the switch gear I need on the wheel.  With the back injury the less I have to reach for switches etc will make it a lot easier to ber safe without causing any additional discomfort and allow me to have as much pain free fun as possible.

It ruined a perfectly good sportsbike and turned it into a beast of a trike. Eventually I had to give up riding with handle bars due to a back injury and thats what inspired the RT build.
