My trike

[BIBS]

Jeesh!!! what a Diverse site this is!!!!!
I wanted to let yas know how I came about and built my "Harley" trike.
She's a 106" 4 5/8" stroked 3 13/16" bore Generator case...with special cylinders that allow for EVO heads,she's got dyna 2000I ignition and a SPUTHE cone slabside cam gear cover where an S&S 563 cam lives
Ya might say she's a "bitsa motor of Harley origin....and a titled 66 motor at that.

I've had the desire to build this unique motor for several years,she once lived in a rigid frame but gave way to my Vertigo bouts,lightheadedness to a trike build.

I use to shudder at the mere though of Trikes...but since I built 'er...I never looked back!!

I do all my own fabricating,wiring...some motor work and make up as many parts as practicality affords.
The frame is an early softtail with a DNA swingarm(wish I hadda gone with IRS type rear) and I've got a pair of 275/65-15 Goodyear eagle GT's on 'er.
The gas tank was on my Bike that I had the 106 motor in...and the front end was also on the bike...the trees are 7 degree jobs straight out of the CCI book,manufacturer..I'm not certain of.
I run an open primary with a 2" beltdrive from TECH. cycle products and I'm running 22 tooth off the 6 speed ultima trans. to a 50 tooth sprocket on the DNA rear

Right now I'm having some brake issues...which I'll address in an other thread.I think I may have the issue resolved but wont know till I light in one spot long enuff ta fix 'er.

These pictures are about 2-3 months old...I hadnt changed over to the Sputhe cam gear cover yet.
The reason I changed over was because the old style point breaker....although she was fitted with electronic ignition similar to a dyna S..........just wasnt getting it.I had lots of trouble setting the timing with out buckin back on the starter.
The Sputhe allows for Evo style cams and ignition

Damm Grimm ...
Everytime I see your trike I think "Steam Roller" LOL....
And I also would love to do that to my 1999 Dyna Wide Glide !
I have NEVER seen a Trike like yours up here (exposed wheels).
Most of the Trikes up here are like HD TG's or Honda G/W Trikes.
