done before we do one for the shop and test it out and beat it up . So started a rigid 1000 cc kicker motor trike frame for Kate the other day and here it is out of the jigs .Starting to mock it up for a front end . 45 degrees in the neck with 4 in forward stretch and 2 in up stretch . Will take a DNA rear diffy with disc brakes and 4 piston calipers . Pics are here .

Wheel treatment ? thinking something cheap aluminium from Jegs with skinny tires . 205's ? Really no idea , never built anything with more than 2 wheels before ! Springer pics up now . Tank , want to see how stuff fits over the top of the motor once it's in the frame .

Those were actually normally used as front wheels,a set of torque thrusts might look better on the rear for the look youre after.
Ive got a set of 8.5s somewhere in a box for one of my 55 chevies I bought years ago B)

Nice work!Who makes that rear axle?
Do you use any kind of triangulation to tie rear axle and frame together to keep if from twisting? B)
