Home made as his son has his own welding business etc etc...top job...only downside to the entire project is that the engine would have to be moved back to replace the battery :eek: ( situated in the red box behind the top of the seat).

The builder, a good hardened/seasoned biker, planned the trike for about five years then took six months building it. Bought his neighbours 1300cc pride and joy Beetle..then cut it up the next day with an angle grinder :D Now has new crank, 1600barrels pistons, unleaded heads..well everything is new...speedo showing 1,400 odd miles. Very minimalist :)

Looks nice - what's the tank range?

Well I've got the tatoos and attitude ( third trike actually :) ) so all looking good. DAVEL...told Harley tank holds 2.5 gallons so I'm assuming about 40 to the gallon for a 1600cc without a body :confused: so maybe a safe 80-90 miles. I'll probably be fitting a couple of boxes to her so I can carry a spare can etc etc
 
I love customs like this - stripped down and minimalist. You can see the engineering and watch bits move. It makes the trike seem more alive. Nice one :thumb
 
Sorry guys ( and any ladies ) but I have loads more pictures to bore you all half to death with ( looks good from any angle).....here are three more !!! :D
