Where the heck are you going to rest your left foot ? On the exhaust?
your head angle looks a bit steep. Will make a great downhill bike

Is the blue pop bottle in the first pic the gas tank?

**bcredneck** · 11-28-2011, 04:13 AM

ya i had a nos gas tank it was a crap bike but it was better than walking
ive gathered some parts to take back when i go home the only part i can build is the front end but found wheels some tripples to mod forks and for the first time front and back disk brakes theres a rear shock and axle around here some where to

I with ya on that whyzee, the frame does look motocross style! BC I think its awesome that at least you try! And the best part is you never give up.

**bcredneck** · 11-29-2011, 10:06 PM

i may be 500 km from my frame and welder but i built the front end

**whyzee** · 11-29-2011, 10:25 PM

So true badass..kid has got heart. Talk about a great helper / apprentice to an experienced fabricator. He would probably work for free he loves it so much

**whyzee** · 11-29-2011, 10:28 PM

sleepnumber swingarm!!!! You should trademark that............lol Bedframe swingarm, I never would have thought I would see that. I love this thread.....

**bcredneck** · 11-29-2011, 10:31 PM

it needs to be welded and i got to cut the wheel mounts off my forks

**bcredneck** · 11-29-2011, 10:35 PM

dose the pic work know

**whyzee** · 11-29-2011, 10:43 PM

Looking good! But it looks like you are loosing alot of suspension because your headtube is so long....is it not cut to length yet?

**bcredneck** · 11-30-2011, 05:27 PM

ya my head tube needs to be cut 1'' and welded but its hollow so im going to put a bolt tru it for safety because if the trike lives thru my ''safey testing''(big jump) there will be a kid ridding it thats why im using front and back disk brakes and a reasonable sized motor
after im done this im going to make another to race this one
