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.
 
yes it is is fun to ride thank you i only had it for about three weeks and that front fork works great for those tigh turns yes the exaust pipe its all custom on the back its all pipe cover with custom baffles
 
that is definately one of the coolest trikes i have seen, especially with the dual exhuast its just straight up bad A$$ looking. nice work definately nice work.......
 
Re: new additon

it rides pretty well i took it to death race and i went on the track before the race and she handle prrety well around the turns it sounds great the exaust is a custom pipe cover with baffles
 
Awesome Trike City of Angles! Had a great time at DR thanks for coming out.

Sorry I did not get a clear shot of you on the track, you went by before my camera decided to wake up.

yes thank you i had a great time thanks for the invite it was nice meeting az bill i am in the process of desingning anotherbike i am thinking about putting a trike conversion on to a strech cruiser but thats up in the air right now
 
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.....
 
are u familiar with the gt 1 and gt 2 bikes if you are thats where the front fork came from the original fork was to weak if you are interested call usabikemotors.com to see if they could sell you one phone #is 520-777-0924 and talk to joel his the sales rep
 
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.
 
yes with this style front fork the handling is great with the other fork it was too weak for the trike allso what type of tank are you put in cant wait to see pics i took it on the d/r and she handle pretty good on the track

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. :)
