3 wheeler, not what you're thinking though

I have been working on this 3-wheel scooter for a little bit now, I finally have all the parts coming in, and I'm putting in all the work. I had to pick up quite a few tools to start doing everything I needed, but I wanted to get your guys's feedback on where I'm currently at. I am doing an extended battery for each separate motor, I and most likely going to have to use three separate accelerators and three separate electronic regain brake controllers. I would love to be able to use one for everything, but I haven't been able to succeed in this venture. I I'm going to redo the deck with a longboard, I still need to work out the back Fork wheel positioning before I start cutting, but I think it will be really good for more foot space. Let me know what you guys think and if you have any recommendations!

It will be groovy when you realise equalization of of rear wheels is needed.
Which is not saying it wont run and drive, But outside very smooth surfaces, it will be crap.

Damn dude, who peed in your Cheerios? The ride of any of these Chinese scooters on rough surfaces is crap.

@TJSplash this really creative! Great to see people coming up with new ideas. Looking forward to following this.

Damn dude, somebody needs to understand equalizing on tandem drivewheels.
Btw, bonus points for that guy modifying stolen Birds !!

I've got a cop father, I go to police auctions all the time. Go to your local county sheriff's website, they will have a link to all the items they have up for auction. You can get busted scooters at a relatively inexpensive price.

I have determined that the three-wheel idea is not going to work out. My main issue is when I try to do a hard turn the entire back to tires start skidding across the ground. I almost ate sh*t the other day doing it LOL. So I have decided to work on a 2 motor system, not sure what I will end up utilizing the extra motor for. I'm working on an extended battery setup that will power not only the two different Motors, but also be utilized for a horn and LED light bar system.
