Just wondering if the steering will be a bit twitchy, as it is.

Yeah I'm happy the way it is, bit hard to tell if the steering will be twitchy. I did push the trike along and steering was good,will find out when i get some speed into it on a straight bit of road.

Is it nice and clean in there now?

I need to get in mine and rewire the trike, but too many decisions involved.
Have changed the expansion tank, though

Almost done with the duct work and engine mounts, just tack weld this short piece of ss tube for now need to make sure every thing is OK before i weld it all up, you can see i had to cut one end on a slight angle because had trouble getting the engine line up straight in the frame because the frame is a little bit bent it will work.

I have some shim sheets to use to get the hole duct assembly set at the right height i machine slots in the engine base plates so i can move the the engine and duct work in and out as the NGV is a slip joint once the duct work heats up the NGV will lock itself in place.

you are rely getting there now ,have you decided on the trail of the forks yet. keep plugging away till the end.

Thanks mate, i underestimated how much work is needed on this build but i just have to keep working on it when i get time. LOL i wish i could give up my day job AH but will have time off work in June so let see how hard i can push myself to get this thing ready for a test ride. Sorry old git what do you mean trail of the forks??
