No, pulled the engine in the week to level up the mounts and have another go at the oil leak. Plus giving the stainless tubes a polish as I have it off

Just had the trike MOT'd and brakes passed fine, equal both sides on foot as well as hand brake, on the test equipment in the garage which is a little old it looked like it was registering 130kg braking force but I had to nearly stand on the peddle to get this so I deffo think the way foward to help my knees is to install a remote servo to assist with breaking

That's good news,because of your knees the servo looks the best option for you.Mine just needs adjusting now after a couple of days riding around seems to be bias near side.

Been busy today,fitted the new shocks

raised the trike about 2" which is fine as it gives more clearance for the exhaust on the speed humps & now has a nice bounce to it

was worried they would be to stiff but have worked out great so should help my old back out a treat when i give Bruiser a ride out tomorrow,weather permitting.Adjusted brakes again & now seems to be bias to the right hand side slightly as opposed to the left before

will give it a good run tomorrow & if need be readjust, other than that everything is great

no more jobs to do now

Yet
