No I have the magazine. My motorcycle had a mono-shock that went up through the frame, almost horizontal, Dickson's was a new frame. Also if you look at the photo's of the bike and then at the conversion trike, see how the trike doesn't have a lot of space between the top of the motor and the bottom of the tank.

Does the rad suck cool air through what appears to be a rad scoop/ head light guard?

No suck, ride fast and it'll get air. Even though the opening was smaller than the radiator I never had a problem with it getting hot. The only problem was the leaking. That funky looking number plate is exactly that!, a UGLY idea for a number plate. It didn't need to be shaped that way and they changed it the next year.
