All improvement in a kit for converting a motorcycle to a tricycle is described. The kit includes a pair of swing arms having a first end and a second end. Axle couplings are provided at the first end of each swing arm whereby the swing arms are secured to an axle which supports two wheels. Pin receiving couplings are provided at the second end of each swing arm whereby the swing arms are pivotally secured by pins to a motorcycle frame. The improvement is characterized by swing arms having a top surface and a bottom surface. The axle coupling and the pin receiving coupling extend vertically from the top surface of the swing arms. The top positioning of the axle couplings and the pin receiving couplings leaves the majority of the top surface of the swing arms dropped below the level of the original floor boards of the motorcycle. The swing arms can pivot as intended without their movement being impeded by the original floor boards.

An improvement in a kit for converting a motorcycle to a tricycle which includes a pair of swing arms having a first end and a second end, axle couplings at the first end of each swing arm whereby the swing arms are secured to an axle which supports two wheels, pin receiving couplings at the second end of each swing arm whereby the swing arms are pivotally secured by pins to a motorcycle frame, improvement characterized by: swing arms that mount to the exterior of a motorcycle frame having a substantially planar top surface and a bottom surface, the axle coupling and the pin receiving coupling being axially offset from the swing arms and disposed above the top surface of the swing arms, thereby dropping the level of said top surface relative to said axle coupling and said pin receiving coupling.
