I have had to get the trike to the mechanics twice on the back of a tow truck. Got it back wednesday then on sunday went for a short ride & just as I get back near home loss of power, backfiring, & nasty sinking feeling. I limped home the short distance & put my hand over the right exhaust. Hand turned black within a few seconds. I will have to ring mechanic up & arrange to have it towed there yet again!!!

Deeply depressed

might be time to switch mechanics

If you do decide to switch mechanics, try Volks Home in Thomastown. Honest and they know what they're doing
