Rider relocation kit for motorcycles and trikes and method of use thereof

Abstract

A kit for relocating the rider position on a motorcycle or a trike with a standard-length subframe, a standard-length swing arm, standard-length side panels, a standard-length seat, a standard drive, and a standard-length exhaust, includes an extended subframe, an extended swing arm, extended side panels, an extended seat, an extended drive conversion, and an exhaust extender. The extended subframe is extended from the standard-length subframe. The extended swing arm is extended from the standard-length swing arm. The extended side panels are extended from the standard-length side panels. The extended seat is extended from the standard-length seat. The extended drive conversion is for extending the length of the standard drive. The exhaust extender is for extending the length of the standard-length exhaust. Whereby, when the kit is installed on the motorcycle or the trike, the rider position on the motorcycle or the trike is relocated backwards.
