    They both look great - and welcome to the board. Get yourself a front rack for the Big Red though!

    Welcome to the boards. I'll have to haze you though. Since I'm a die hard Steelers fan, I gotta say, the Patriots suck. but, your trikes are great!!


    A lot of good people around here. You'll love it here.

    Thx for the warm welcome.
    I have a small winch I was thinking of putting it on the big red. Tho front rack would be fine also. I will shoot some closer pics and post them.

    Ya know, I like the both for different reasons. The big red is just so easy. When I am kicking over the R and wondering if my leg is gonna snap off due to the compression,...then I really love the Red. The red is a good all around machine. I dont feel bad about getting it muddy. The R is just so clean now that I treat it like a trailer queen too much. As far as riding, the R makes me smile more. Just pure power and noise. I just don't have the space to really ride it like it should be. Looks, the R all the way. So in short...

    Utility and function the Big Red

    Pure needless power and neanderthal pleasure the R

    well the full shop tour is here


    www.plastikosmd.com


    (and a few toys)

    I wanted an 85-86 Red but got a deal on the 84 and it was close by. Runs so damn well I would be hard pressed to give it up. 50cc or so less then the later years..2 inches or so in size smaller, bit lighter and same if not better clearance. Great woods bike that I don't have to feel bad about.
