well i got her dialed in.figured i would get her out today.i was off work.yes!! these pics are a little better than the resto pics i posted last week. had fun on it. i was just gettin the top end broke in.so i didnt give it more than 2/3 throttle.but man.i hit a patch of grass and i was lookin at the sky.whoo hoo. i love this thing.man the steering, after riding a banshee for 6 years, it is like ther is nothin up front.i am so proud of this thing.sorry. i just mean,when you bring somethin home in boxes,put some time and effort into it,well, that is reward in itself.i am so glad i brought this trike back from the dead.it is pretty stock.60 over,boysen reeds,cobra pipe? and lt 250 silencer.i also had the crank rebuilt and opened up the bottm end just to check the trans. it is a 85 yz 250 bottom end,converetd back to tri-z form. it has a banshee thumb throttle and 86 cable.new clutch, and a polished cylinder head.i will be rebuilding the front end next week. i got progressive springs in the waiting and new wheel bearings. i would like to get a silver front rim for it too.but just ridin it was well worth the work.my wife was so instrumental in this project.she helped in so many ways.surfin the net lookin for parts and polishing plastic,so on so forth.next i will be building her a big bore trike.it is a secret.but she wants one now too. after all, she kinda learned to ride on trikes.once again thanks to everyone who helped. derrick,tim sr, mike from long island,twgranger,lonesome tri-z,chainsaw,and my trike sucks,and breastman,and blazerone22.if i forgot any one sorry. all you guys helped me greatly.oh also slothminx.thanks again.this forum has the best people:cool:
