    well I came home from work and started buttoning everything up, added fluids,tourqued a bunch of bolts, popped in the new battery, said a prayer and bam, she fired right up no hesitation. I was stoked beyond words! Going to try it out tomarrow. Only thing is the rear tires dont want to hold air. Do you guys use tubes, and how easy are they to install?

    I don't have tubes in my 84. One tire does leak so I am thinking of jsut putting tubes in them. I have used a few tubes before and they seem to work well.

    well i loaded up and drove 45 min to my cousins to rip around alittle, but as soon as i got there it started raining, so i put it in his garage. It never stopped raining, and I didnt get to ride a lick. To top it off when i was coming home it poured, so no riding and a soaking wet trike to boot. hopefully tomarrow will be better.

    went for a cruise around the property. Seems to ride good, sounds like theres some vibration in the sub trans, and the rear drum must be close to its service limit because i had to adjust almost all the way to get them to grab. Other than that it ran great, once warm it will idle for ever.
    some pics of the red, I did more work than riding, but its that time of year. Cant wait to get my racks on so i wont have to ride one handed with the chainsaw.
    I figured i'd test the low range on the red withe that big oak. I notched it, and sure enough it wants to go the other way. barely got the saw out. I dont know what holds um up sometimes!!
