Thanks man! I'm real stoked about it...turned out way better than I was expecting. I just got all the chains put on, so I'm hoping to cruise it thru town in a few- just gotta get the drive side working right. No bracing on the outside of the wheel is being problematic AGAIN...had it working great before I painted it :roll:

This bobber' looks fantastic.
That's the way it goes. But every now and then, it goes the other way too.

Thanks again guys! Looks like I'm not as "done" as I thought. Outlaw-the axles are not strong enough...I'm in the process of building new braces now. Looks like she'll be getting fenders on her butt :wink:

I was wondering about that if you were going to have problems or not. so with the fenders your bracing will go around the wheels? thats would be ok. fenders would look good. can you show us how you hooked up the drive train. really like this trike.

Duncan:Much thx man-the wheels are just a light teal that I made...similar to Seafoam w a bit less green.
Outlaw: pics below of the rear drive- and yeah I'm trying to make the braces look like fender mounts...it's not bad looking, plus it'll give me something' else to paint scallops on 8)
Aros: appresh!
Mounted up the headlight today also, Not sure about it tho.
