There are many types available in both steel and aluminum. They're called handlebar risers and come in 7/8" and 1". These are from eBay:

When I was figuring out how to motorize this trike I emailed Kent Bicycles to purchase an extra freewheel and adaptor. Even though I ended up using a larger freewheel from Staton, Kent shipped me the parts for free. Good customer service from Kent!

It's a good idea running dual freewheels. Did you explain what you were doing to customer service or just ask for extra parts?

I just asked how to purchase a freewheel and adaptor. They asked for the model number and address and said they would ship the parts no charge as a customer service.

Having done a few rides on this trike, it will take some getting used to. The gear ratio is about right for flat ground and small hills. Engine runs good and the transmission and clutch work smoothly. With 65 psi in the tires every bump is jarring. I cut the bottom and side out of a plastic tote and placed it over the engine to make it quieter. The rear band brake is useless. Needs a rear view mirror.
