What a wonderful build. Looks as if it was built like that when it was new.
The paint is perfect. Made my mind up for me, that my next build after this one will be a trike.

The exhaust pipes are pure genius.

Steve.

nice trike city,

the front fork is it a 1 inch stem, did you add that later or did it come with the bike. I have been looking for a triple front for ages.....

Nice Build City of A's, The Trike looks so right. Buildin a Trike myself right now , but using a motorcycle tank. I'm curious on how stable the cornering is at higher speeds and even the stability at just goin straight? Again, cool bike.

Goin with an old single wide glide Harley tank. I cut the outer bubbled edges off {too bubbly} and welded inward scallops on the sides, as if one would put their knees tucked to the sides. I'm gonna weld a carrier box in between the back tires and try an replicate a vintage police Harley trike with fenders welded over the back tires and a front to match. The box will have a piano hinge so I can actually put stuff in there. Finishing another build now {street pounder w/ custom tank, way kicked back seat post,etc}, startin Trike next week.

City,
Thanks for sharing your trike with us 3 wheel lovers. That is a boss ride, sir. It just sits so right. Makes me smile just looking at it. :)
