We showed a dozen trikes down at the Bath & West bike show in Somerset a few years ago. I drove a tail lift van with a couple in the back & lifted them just like that. Easy.

After seeing a pic of Zakboys trailer on his build thread,I thought this would be an option. Making it is no problem,but the bits ,eg suspension etc will cost around £200.........so another cost prohibitive. [/quote]Why don't you hire a Small plant trailer got to be cheaper than hiring a van with a tail lift

Once your trike has passed the MSVA test you should be given a Minister’s Approval Certificate (MAC)or its equivalent With a MAC you will be able to apply to DVLA to get your vehicle licensed and registered.you don't need to take it for a dvla inspection as well

If you have been through the MSVA then registered the trike as a new vehicle, you do not need an mot for 3 years.

The reason I asked is because Im not entirely sure what the MSVA checks.For instance,do they check headlamp aim and stuff like that?

Hired a Transit Luton with tail lift today. Took it to weighbridge with Trike inside,had it weighed. Took it home ,unloaded trike,then back to weigh empty van. Difference came out dead on 300 kgs. I was surprised,as I guessed around 400 kgs. Forgot to put the mudguards and brackets in the van ,so guessing another 12kgs for these. At least I know the taillift idea is now feasible,and I have the weight cert to send with the applicaton form to VOSA now!
