[quote="Arightpest"]I do find myself a tad disappointed the tread pattern on the tires could be better but that's not your fault

Hmmm ??????
Standard summer road tread could understand if they where 4x4
Just looked at pics again think the wet and dust on the treads make them look more chunky than they are in the flesh.

hello i was taking the mickey. i couldn't in all honesty find fault with your work. i was saying it tongue in cheek because the tread on the tires was nothing to do with you and i am sure if you could alter them you would do and make a bloody good job of them.

i hope you didn't take umbrage as non was intended.

all the best arightpest

ITS Done:thumbsup:
Trike on the road after a hard 12.5 hours to get it finished just fine tuning
To do now.me and sue took it for a test ride it has a small weave at very low speeds but I haven't checked tyres pressures or head bearings .
Once rolling she's straight as a die.gearing seams good at 70mph she was doing 3000 rpm and feels very stable on corners feels a bit heavy on the steering but I think that's a trike thing .overall I'm happy no body rattles ect .

Excellent news, you have a great trike and worth all the effort you have put in, now is the time to enjoy the fruits of your labour :)
