| | Re: iRide Customs' Trike I think I see a Springer front forks, love the fat tires, anything like your other builds, I know it will look cool and be functional at the same time. Can't wait to see the finished bike and hopefully a video

| | Re: iRide Customs' Trike lookin good Dan 
having used 4-5 of those rears (from choppersus), can I suggest keeping the weight all low...even with the 4.5 tires, they still wanna lift in a corner (at low speeds even) |

The frame is a Micargi Bronco GTS so the bottom of the frame is only 4'' off of the ground. This bike won't get ridden much since it will be a rolling billboard. i am only customizing it so the owner will get the attention of people to draw them into his rolling advertisement.
Here's another side shot

| | Re: iRide Customs' Trike Dan, That thing is going to be beautiful! Did you do all the sheet metal work?
My one son told me that when I build his bike he want's an electric. I will have to look yours over really close when it is done to get more ideas. Great job so far!
