Looks good Mike. I was just curious where you got the rear brake line done so I can get one when I put on the +2" Cal-Fab. That wont be on for the fest but I did get the 01 Raptor shock on and its way better. I just dont like that I have the Bottle bungie corded to the swingarm. Just need to lock tight all the bolts and stuff and she should be good to go. I cant wait to see yours and have both of our Green machines lined up and looking good.
Mike I have a set of Aluminum rear Hub extenders Im not using right now, I think they are to thick. They are like 5" wide each. I was gonna use them but dont know how to set them up and dont want to ruin the hubs I have. Im looking for a machine shop so I can copy them but maybe at 3" thick each. Let me know if you want to borrow them if that rear axle doesnt work out.

THANKS for the offer Gary!! I have a +4 axle in it now It will be wide enuff for me for now. I hope to hear it run tonite. Wish me luck.

IT RUNS!!!! I put some fuel in it tonite, filled the fluids, and started to kick it. 3rd kick fired rite up!! Tomarrow I pick up a spare +5 brake line and a +10in chain, throw the plastics on and take it for a ride. I can't wait, it looks better than ever to me and it is awsome that I did ALL the polishing and painting and assembly! I am so happy w/ how it turned out. The only thing not 100% is that I am running 8 year old plastics, I will prob change them out over the winter. Full size pictures tomarrow or Thursday!!

nice!!!!!!!!!!!cant wait to get a glimpse at it. bet shes sexy.

[MIK6]

This is how it is going to look!! I have to take the tank back off and ad a few straps to the tank cover, then bolt everything back on. I love the blue tank cover, I did the patterning myself and a friend did the sewing. It will be 100% tomarrow, bolt the tank and rear fenders, adjust the bars and put new grips on.

I LOVE IT!!!

Looking good Mike! Can't wait to see it in person at tf

[BigGreenMachine]

Trike of the Month right there!! GOLDEN!

What handlebars are those, what bend I mean?

[cragster]

Those tires are fast trekkers? Right? I love them but i checked Denniskirk and they only make them for 10 inch rims and 8 inch rims. I have 9 inch rims. guess im SOL.. Are those 18's on 10 inch rims? I like how they look. But could they be inflated more? Would they still look sporty once they are full of air?

[Kintore]

mmmmm Mike!

She looks SICK! Im kinda wanting to retract my previous statement of riding her, its too nice!

[scooterroo]

damn my keyboard almost shorted out when i saw that thing, fuccin saweet mike. you did one hell of an awesme job on that bike. is that a tank cover or did you paint the tank? and that rear extension on the swinger....whered you get that from? i love the polishing work, a little bling on the green.

[tmecars]

Hey Mik66
Awesome T3, man. Great work. Can you give me the details on your rear tires? Size, price, where purchased?

[scooterroo]

look like titan fast trekkers too me, availible from titantires.com , the size looks like 18x10. not a bad price for them either, i think like 65 or in that range.

[MIK6]

THANKS GUYS!!!! I love the way it turned out, thats why Im building my 86 to ba almost the same as it but w/o the extender, w/ 20in Fast Trekkers, and a headlight.

tmecars.. Yep Titan Fast Trekkers. They are 18X10X10s, I have them on my all my T3s.

scooterroo... I patterened the tank and a friend did the sewing, thats a MIK6 TANKCOVER!! I built it using blue boat canvas. I did 100% of the polishing. The swinger is a CRAZY G RACING bolt in extender. Hagen from Germany made it for me (greenboy on 3WW). He designed it and built it. It works GREAT, I love it.

Here is a few picts from TF06.
