Hello everybody just signed up to this site having been a guest,  bought a reliant trike last week and I'm having a few issues with it.
having problems whilst changing gear, the clutch on the right and side , gear change on the left, i have read  a few articles on here, people having the same issues, did the Guzzipig ever get off the ground ?  also i hear that a Ural box may be adapted to fit is this correct.
Many thanks CPG

Hi Calvin & welcome to the site.  Wink
What exactly's the problem? Sloppy gearchange? Jumping out of gear? Crunching gears?
If you want to, swapping the clutch arm from the right to the left, so you operate it with your left foot like a normal car, is a fairly simple job.
Always nice to see a photo or 2 of reader's builds by the way.

Hi Manky  thankyou for the welcome,  if i was to move the clutch to the left hand side i would have to move the foot brake to the right not a great problem thou,  the problem with the gearbox seems to my legs as when i change gear seems to be very tight on my thigh, that's where the thought of a automatic came to mind, i will upload some pictures later in the week.
thanks cpg
