Re: Here we go again dragstar Classic trike build
Ok first real day on the build other than removing the rear wheel,final drive and screen earlier in the week.started this morning by playing with the new cheap pipe bender .then measured up the rear swingarm and cut the ends off now normaly I would never build on to an original swingarm but in this case I have a design I believe will work well and be strong.
After cutting I bent up a top and bottom tubes then shaped the ends of the swingarm tubes to take the tubes then tacked in place then cut outer ends of tubes to take end plates to take axle
But unfortunately the plates are wrong because I had to alter the design but I will cut some new ones when I get back to work on Monday .
