I'm working slowly on my winter ride. Titan powered trike front wheel drive if I can swing it.
It's gonna be sick,man and will be my main ride this winter because three wheels is more stable!
And it's a worksman trike with heavy duty EVERYTHING.

looks like a lot of interest in a build off maybe we can start two/three threads (if needed) one for diy one for engine kits and one for electric if anyione is plannin on doing so. or lump'em all in one. and have the members of the site vote for a winner. doesnt have to be a prize just the joy of one more motobike in the arsenal . how long should the time limit be 1 month 2 month know what everyone wants to do.

I"m in on this I've got ideas knockin' around in my noggin' for a DIY build.... Sicne' I'm going to be stuck inside all winter might as well do something that will make the coming summer more fun. Thought the temptation to ride on a clear warm day in the winter will be hard to resist.

I have 2 in mind, 1 with a steel recumbent, the 25 cc Zenoah engine, and an aerodynamic windshield...

Target?

Verifiable 300 miles per gallon.

I was just looking at my pile of thrift store parts bikes yesterday, and I think I may be able to come up with an old motorcycle looking contraption (Boardtracker term is overused lately) in the next few months.

Okay here's mine:
LF's Trike powered by TITAN Front Wheel Drive!

It's ridable now but not exactly finished. I need a better touch up on black paint,my tires need a changing,maybe go with NoMoreFlat tires and I'm contemplating taking my 36 tooth sprocket currently on my crank and replace my 40 tooth on my front tire with that.
Also I need to change my pedal gearing from the current 36/20 to a 44/18 or 44/16 so I can better help my engine along to get up to speed.
I may also get taller ape hangers down the road too. Spooky looks to have a nice 26 inch tall set.
