I would fall over when I turned.

That's kinda sad. Kinda cool, but sad.

I'd appreciate it more if it could still lean, via some kind of linkage setup.

A Buell should always be able to LEAN.

Jeez, 3-wheeled ATVs were banned years ago for obvious reasons. I guess the UK didn't get the message.

The white one that floated around here is way better.

They could have gone a little wider.....if they used a truck axle!

Do you fall over when you stop?

Not any more! I don't drink when I ride. Quit that a long, long time ago.

I'm not a fan of trike conversions in general, but that looks like it took a lot of work. I would like to see that done as a quad for some sort of crazy autocross event.

I am all over this. It looks like a first class conversion job.

If I had the expendable cash right now I would buy it and donate it to a wounded Vet organization.

The Trike Shop, who did this one are one of the benchmark builders in the UK, they've done a XB12SS too.
For disabled riders sometimes it's the only option if you want to keep riding.

"I have not heard of another similar conversion so this is a really unique trike"

At some point unique pushes to become odd. There is a reason not alot of people are taking a perfectly great bike and putting a rear axle and extra wheel on them.... much less painting them champagne pink.
