Champion manufactures a variety of custom trike kits.
Champion Trikes of Garden Grove, California, began producing motorcycle accessories in 1990. Building on the success of their popular Escort sidecar and Colorado Sport Trailer, in 2000 Champion introduced custom trike kits. As of 2010, the company offers 13 different custom trikes based on Harley-Davidson, Honda and Yamaha motorcycle models.
Available Models
Champion's 2010 catalog includes trike kits for multiple models of Harley-Davidson, Honda and Yamaha motorcycles.

Besides Honda GL 1500 and 1800 trike conversions, Champion also produces trikes for Honda's VTX 1300 and 1800 models.
Standard Features
Standard features on all Champion kits include reinforced fiberglass body panels, tail signal lights, a custom exhaust system and high performance disc brakes.
