Yeah learning forward is my way of ridding, I will be getting some more raised bars, I will try both so see what's better it's getting some where. I just keep looking at it and making sure I'm not going to do things twice, Iv gotta get some more tube in to do the struts and bracing, just been working with engine mounts at the moment, I think I have found how they will end up,,

:respek: that. this will be a road cruise trike but I will race down that track one day but the look will be dragster. But it's looking that way so I'm winning, yours is coming on :respek: also brought a kit engine mounts for the engine as I want the engine to be rubber mounted, don't really like the thought of it not moving and under pressure :eek:

Okay its been a while since iv been on her and it been ages since iv done a fully day working on this never ending project. iv been working 50+hrs at work and only been doing a couple of hours on the trike, so this means now with work its going to take longer, iv been working on the small jobs that need to be done with the time i have during the week days and weekends, and I know you all like photos so here is one of the engine. as this engine will be on show as this will not be covered with panels I will have to make it look nice and right. so here is the engine..................

this is just an update so you all know i havent given up ......

Looking good it hard sometimes I was lucky I got a job 40 hrs a week just as I started mine I was doing 50 to 60 hrs a week as long as you keep bobbing a long and making the effort when you do have the time you will get there keep it up

The Frame looked so 'empty' before, but it's really starting to look good now! :respek:

Have you decided what to do with the rear Frame Sections yet?
