Ding's Workbench / Ground Up Trike Build / Closer and on the lift
Posted by: Ding, November 1st, 2007, 12:41pm
Ok folks,
Here are a couple of update shots with the trike on the lift.
This shot shows the BITCHEN MASSIVE pipes that Pinnacle Power Exhaust built. Jerod Jardine did the pipes. He is the son of Jerry Jardine for all of you "Old School" racers.

This shot is from the rear and shows those massive pipes coming out the back. Also note the springs for the box frame and the seat pan is placed on the frame. We will be putting a single spring pogo under the seat for the comfy ride.

Here is the left side. You can see the "Stradivarius Apparatus" that I had to build to get a reverse in this thing. It uses a high torque Chevy gear reduction starter and a stock Harley 102T ring gear. Then the chain goes over one of those rubberized tensioning wheels.

Here are a couple of close ups of the "Wyoming Bucking Bronco" that Jerod put on the top (front) Pipe. Little detail that I think rocks. We plan on having him powder coated Blood Red and the pipes done in Black. Then we will use Red header wrap on the top part of the pipes.


Hope to get some last minute shots once the seat and dash are done. After that the next step is to tear this puppy apart and make it purty.
