Boing Boing – Part 3
As we had left the build with the A frames being assembled, it is now on to fitting those completed parts to the main frame of the trike.
Boing Boing
First off an apology, Since the last post life has happened. My wife has had an operation on her knee and any work that was scheduled for the rebuild has been put on hold. However, never fear a few things have happened with the build so read on and find out whats been going on.
Red is the only Colour
I managed to get the last bits on the trike welded and took the frame down to get powder coated (about time!)
And the weld goes on
We have almost reached the point of no return with the frame, and we will be ready soon to get the frame to powder coating. Unfortunately the time is being taken up with doing little things on the trike, like constructing the box mounts on the sides and close off the holes in the horns.
What you looking at?
I was asked the other day about what I am aiming to make this trike look like. Well I have a few ideas but most of the design ideas are in my head, however I am basing this trike on a picture I have.
It’s the Little Things That Count
We are working on those final bits to get the frame ready for powder coating, with small amounts of work to be done to the engine before we test run that as well. Things are starting to take shape.
Just a Little Longer
Today has been a very productive day, by managing to combine the four main components of the vehicle to give us a platform to start building the engine cage that I really want on the trike.
Weld One
I went and visited the welders today to discuss fitments and locations of various components on the trike and there has been a lot of progress made on it.
Trike Spotter
Over the last few weeks the weather has improved quite a bit and the bikes and trikes have been out in force. Rally season is also upon us, so now we are out and about camping in fields and getting drunk in large marquees!
