I was going to post these in last weeks "show us your best trike" thread but even though she's my only trike (so must be my best) she's one ugly futher mucker. Runs like a champ though so looks like my toughest job will be cleaning her up. Took these pics over the weekend as I was getting the electric starter going so please ignore the birdsnest on the front fender. Have to say I'm very happy with her except now I'm so ate up I've gotta find two more for the wife and kiddo. I'll post more as I make progress.

That motor looks very clean, just clean off the plastics and tank and it will be a very nice bike

That's next on my list. Just got my new cables and brake shoes today so that'll keep me busy the next few afternoons. Hopefully I can get started on the clean up this weekend. The right rear finder has a pretty good split in it and I haven't quite decided what to do about that. My old man has a vinyl welder for dash repair and I was thinking about giving it a go with that. Anyone have any suggestions?

Ah, who cares what she looks like as long as she's maintained & running well!The old drill & red wire ties always works, that's a great trike you have, what kind of riding do you do?

Ehh as long as she rides, who cares? I have several really good looking bikes in the garage that don't presently run. Not much good are they?

There is no such thing as an ugly trike.

Lol thanks for the motivation from everyone. I'm not exactly planning to make a shower out of this machine since she's more of a workhorse than anything. I actually bought it out of necessity about a year ago when my wife and I bought 40 acres in the foothills of the Ozarks. Needless to say I've already gotten my moneys worth out of it. We don't have any tracks or designated trails out here but really don't need them anyway. So I guess my riding would be termed as "backwood". I've got 3 creekbeds and 6 acres of lakefront I tear around and you're absolutely right 3wheel, I couldn't ask for better back tires. She'll plow through anything, with our without me still on her.
