    Yeah, I was just gonna say "Hey, I thought I was supposed to win this one!".

    Seriously, congratulations to the winner. When you get it, post some video of you riding it, so those of us who didn't win can live vicariously through you.

    Thanks everyone. Currently Xowner is working to get her crated up and shipped to me. I can't wait. I'll post pics and updates as things progress.

    Want to keep those who are interested updated on the progress of the raffle prize getting to me and my anticipation and excitement at the prospect of owning this incredible ATC. I don't post very much so please let me know if the protocol is that I should start a new thread instead of posting here.

    Xowner was good enough to crate her up for me and drop off at the shipper. Here are the pics he sent me of the crate process.

    When I pick her up I'll post pics and try to comply with MIK6's request for a video of me uncrating it. I like that idea : )

    I'm absolutely stoked and looking forward to next week when the trike arrives at the dock near my house!

    Hopefully it makes it to you safely!

    In the mean time I'd like to share some pictures and some information.

    Here's a few that Billy was able to take at Haspin. I'm glad we where able to grab a decent pic of myself with the build.



























    bslama69 if you're in the desert area I highly recommend you find a nice outwears for the filter. Honestly I really hadn't contemplated the idea that it would end up out in Cali or I probably would have installed one myself during the build. Obviously I hope you don't have any problems but feel free to PM me if you need information, I'll do the best I can to help you. Honestly I definitely expect the jetting to possibly be lean for out your way so you may need to re-jet. Possibly someone local to you could help with that if you need assistance.


    Some information I've been holding back and lots of people have been asking about is the source for the fuel tank. This particular tank is a reproduction tank sold in japan on a website called "WeBike!". It's a repro of a Honda APE 100 tank, a model that was only released in japan as far as I understand. The tank fits pretty nicely with a 3" frame stretch but will not fit a stock frame.

    Here's a link to the tank http://japan.webike.net/products/20262560.html, it looks like the price has come down a little since I purchase one.

    Very cool! Thanks for the extra pics. That was a nice way to wake up this morning.

    I run outerwears on all my bikes that don't have an airbox. I even have an extra one that is black and brand new, so this is a perfect place to use it.

    Thanks for the heads up on the jetting. I'll check it out after a few rides and see if I need to make an adjustment.

    Curious to know how you knew that tank was what you needed and was going to fit?
