Message: <blockquote data-quote="kronos182" data-source="post: 7967480" data-attributes="member: 6668634">Reverse TrikeThis vehicle is a three wheeled vehicle with two positional wheels in the front and one wheel in the back. While travelling at low speeds or over rough train, the front wheel struts spread out to provide greater stability. When travelling at high speeds the wheels move together to create a narrower and more nimble profile. Instead of a gas engine the reverse trike is powered by an electric engine, making it quite quiet. On either side of the rear of the bike are two storage bins, each two feet by two feet by 2.5 feet tall, each capable of carrying 25 lbs. The battery is good for 6 hours of travel before requiring recharging which takes about 2 hours. In a pinch, and some work, the reverse trike can be made o run off standard power packs, but each pack only provides 1 hour of travel time, at reduced speed. Rider is completely exposed.Crew: 1Passengers: 0Cargo: 50 lbsInit: 0Maneuver: 0Top Speed: 50 (5)Defense: 9Hardness: 5Hit Points: 12Size: LargePurchase DC: 19Restriction: Lic (+1)Accessories: Headlights, two water proof cargo binsNotes: Half penalties for rough terrain when travelling under 30 (3), +1 to Drive checks travelling under 30 (3). If modified to run off power packs (Repair check DC 12 and 30 min of work), each power pack provides 1 hour of power, but max speed is 40 (4), reduce Init and Maneuver to -1. -1 to Listen checks due to the quieter electric engine, -3 to Listen checks if driving under 20 (2).VariantsLong Range Reverse TrikeThis version reduces cargo capacity for increased battery capacity for increased range.Make following changes:Reduce cargo capacity to 25 lbs;Increase run time to 12 hours, takes 3.5 hours to charge;Can't be modified to run off power packs.Ride Reverse TrikeThis version is modified for a smoother ride, includes improved seat, ergonomic handles, slightly reduced cargo with slightly increased, comes with cup holder, GPS.Make following changes:Increased top speed to 60 (6);Increase Maneuver +1;Reduce cargo capacity to 30;If not carrying cargo can carry 1 passenger but max speed reduced to 30 (3);Run time is 8 hours;PDC: +1Defense Reverse TrikeThis variant has increased armour and protective fairings to help protect the rider so they are not as exposed to debris, or enemy fire.Make following changes:Decrease top speed to 40 (4);Increase hit points to 16;Increase Hardness to 6;Reduce cargo capacity to 25 lbs;Driver has one-quarter cover;PDC: +2Restriction: Restricted (+2)OptionsSolar ChargerThis adds a set of solar panels atop the cargo bins and connects to the battery to allow the reverse bike to be charged while outside. While driving on a sunny day, increases operation time by 30 minutes for every hour while driving in sunny conditions, but only 15 minutes in cloudy conditions. When not driving, recharges 45 minutes of operation time per hour in the sun, but only 30 minutes in cloudy conditions per hour.PDC: 12Super Solar ChargerThese are improved solar panels that are more efficient. While driving, increase operation time by 45 minutes for every hour in sunny conditions, 30 minutes in cloudy conditions. When not driving, recharges 1 hour for every hour in sunny conditions and only 45 minutes for every hour in cloudy conditions.PDC: 14Large Cargo BinsThese are larger cargo bins, 2.5 feet by three feet by three feet tall, able to carry 30 lbs each for a total of 60 lbs. However reduces speed by 10 (1), -1 to maneuver and reduce operation time by 1 hour when full.PDC: 10</blockquote>
