Nice garage there... what size put put is that? Goat a canny bit of box section to push about....

the engine is a 500cc single fuel injected and was 102 miles old when the rider decided to blip the throttle while waiting to exit a tee junction, you really cant do that on a twist and go bike.
It won;t be the fastest three wheeler around but the bikes can get to 90 plus mph. Just for fun really.

There's a lot of steel in those sides for a 40 BHP engine. More than in a locost. Good choice of engine though. A little bit of me wishes I'd gone for the 500 rather than the 250 Quasar engine. Any drawings of what the final item will look like?


kipper - 6/4/09 at 06:50 PM

I dont have a drawing, I just did some measurments from STM regarding the front end and sort of worked from there.
I have it in my head that I wanted the smallest front area for better penitration (ooer) so went for a wedge shape.
I think it will look like a stealth fighter when all the facets are panelled, and I want a sliding cockpit cover eventually.


The only thing that will spoil the front is the need for headlights so I am looking at ways of making them retract.
Now you guys have shown me how to post pics I will try to keep them coming.
Regards Kipper..........AKA Denis.

Edit to say I have a CBR 1000 sat in the workshop and if the scoot isn't up[ to the job the plot will turn into a 4 wheel single seater.
