Nice rear disc brake, but where's the pedal ? (must have forgotten to engineer that).

---------------------------------

He's running it off of the front brake master. There is a splitter on the right side of the down tube, just under the tank.

Also, as much fun as it is to pick this thing apart, I still think it's cool that someone built what they wanted and there is some decent fabrication there. More power to'em!

I was looking at maybe doing one from a Honda Fury, cost of the entire assembly and bracket as OEM is pretty steep.

It looks to be one of the available Harley headights, and he built bent up a flat plate to adapt it to the Savage yoke.

The adapter that Armen machines for me mounts the same headlight - but doesn't push it out so far forward and keeps it closer to the forks.

custom plate "46VNV"

probably a one legged Vietnam vet.

I believe that for most people.....there is a good reason they are riding a trike (probably not their 1st choice for a cool motorcycle). A lot them are physically impaired and can't hold up a bike anymore, some have balance problems, some are just afraid of 2 wheels.

Performance isn't really a consideration for them.....and most of them don't handle/steer very well - but the trike allows them to go "riding"!

There are to many things wrong with this bike. I believe the biggest "fabrication" is that it is well engineered.
