    It would be cool to see video of it on the dyno for the whole 3wheelerworld to see. Maybe see the graphs too. To see the results of timing and jetting changes have on power would be a treat to witness, sell tickets!

    After you dial it in i bet you could dig a dual trench a mile long and shoot dual 75' rooster tails while doing it! I bet she will be a drinker, that's not a bad thing though, in this case.

    Looks fantastic. The expansion chamber is a work of art. The decals look awesome, and turned out better than I expected although the seat no longer works. If the green material on the seat was change from green to white, and the "Kawasaki" was changed to black it may flow a little better. But this is a minor point in an otherwise top notch build.

    I love the blacked out forks on this. Actually, I love everything about it. If we put ours side by side it would be like a good vs evil with the color contrast. A couple guys from up north may be coming down for a ride in the national forest the beginning of January, do you want me to keep you updated on it when the details get figured out? There will be a couple 86 tecates, a triz and some Rs. Unfortunately I couldn't bring my 500 down but I do have my 450. This trike would be in good company
    Looking for a Bassani silencer for a 2nd gen tecate, the style with the movable mount. 1st gen will work

    Christmas theme ASV Levers!!!!!!! Just kidding. You can only order the big dial in Red. So I'm taking it apart and going to anodize it green. But good news I got my levers, thumb throttle, master cylinder. Just need little things to finish. I'll take to take better pics outside this weekend.

    Just saw your recent postings . . bike looks killer and quite flashy, but now the plain front fender looks a little plain . . you could put some type of two color thin graphic on it outlining the front and sides of the recess or something if you like that type of look.

    if you dyno tune it, don't forget to a little less and a little more ignition advance.

    Joe,
    Same with the Tecate first gen alum radiators. All the tabs will eventually break off.

    The guys with 500's are telling me that carrier can't handle the power and will twist. I don't want ruin my motor or my west coast swingarm. I wanted to wait so I figure out which length I wanted.
