Do you have pics of the rest of that bike?
I posted videos of it earlier in the thread, but here's one again.

No matter how fast or how far I rode, I couldn't leave her memory behind.

great mick. 8) i've always had a thing for cycle-cars and this type of trike fits in there too. with cyclecars the handling can be "interesting" depending on drivetrain configuration; this thing either handles like a mo fo or is a death wish.

sorry but i had to add this.

those wheels look good on that bike wonder what bike the wheels are off of.  Been looking for some wheels off a cbr600 to put on the bike but kinda want to keep that vintage look so might find some old mags.
Keep it shinny side up.
