Here is Brandon and Carlyn on the Bike. I have a great Picture of Brandon helping me with the project in high school. Brandon says the bike is real nice!

Here it is. I just won this on e-bay. I am excited to have the engine on the way. This 1200cc engine produces 138 hp at 8,000 RPM. As this comes together I hope you will catch the vision of riding in comfort and having fun with an open cockpit. Stay tuned as the body is being finished and we start welding up the frame.

Rear Wheel drive:

Here is the 08 Honda Goldwing rear swing arm I won on ebay. I've decided on rear wheel drive and will be using it on the beetle back replica. It came off a new goldwing to make a trike.

Working on the drivers side:

Here is the foam attached on the drivers side. I am learning some techniques as the project unfolds. I am still looking for an engine and am struggling with the decision. I really wanted a K1200 RS engine but the engine I found is already gone. So on to the next one. Maybe an R1 engine? 180 HP? or R6 130 hp 17000 RPM? Stay tuned in for the exciting development of the Crockett---Rocket.

Finishing up the right side of the outer panel. The panel will be removed and then fiber-glassed on the inside and then attached to the bulkheads. Thanks to Jared and his friend for their help in doing the large area. Today a neighbor asked what I was building (It was so nice outside I could not stand doing this work in the garage) I asked what they thought it was? It looks like a boat. It definitely is taking shape.. It would probably float very well but it is definitely not a boat.





This shows how stiff the sandwich composite material is. You can see where the foam is not: it is very flexible. Where the foam is: the structure is very stiff. I made this to show people the materials we are using.

Fifth bulkhead is attached and now we will start putting the sides on.

Here is the beginnings of the foam sandwich composite body for the New SS beatle back morgan replica. The floor is done and the back bulkhead is done. This is great fun to build with your Sons or Daughter. Jared and Kimball have helped allot and even Spencer my youngest has helped.
Here are the bulkheads 1,2,3 and 4 attached to the floor. The rear bulkhead remains to be attached and then we will start doing the sides. I am missing the seat which will put me up an additional 6-8". This will look very much like the picture below. Just stretched a little for a bigger person like me. No hip hugging in the CMW reverse trike. And of course left hand drive (meaning the steering wheel is on the left).

Morgan: The Classic Reverse Trike

This is a Super Sport Beatle Back Morgan. Approximately a late 20's to early 30's. With a Matchless v-twin engine.

This is a 1936 Super Sport Barrel Back. Classic Morgan.

This is a 1932 Super Sport Beatle back.

History of Crockett Motor Works

My first thoughts of a trike started in the 7th grade or so. Back in the early 80's we did not have the internet...And I could not find any trikes other than the one Leonardo DaVinci drew in the late 1400's. So here are a few pictures of my first prototype. The trike in the photo above was built from 1985-1987. My younger brother Brandon would ride on the bike and shift the gears before we had it all put together. The Engine was a Honda V65 Magna 1100cc. 116 HP. Man was it fun to drive, very fast. All the fun of shifting and quick acceleration of a motorcycle with the safety of seat belts and a roll cage.
