So I hacked her back end off, as it was too long, especially with 2 bikes in garage too. And made her a hard tail. Help required

Hacked the horrible running boards off, and all the ugly bits, and started again really. Ripped all the wiring out, had no brakes, nothing, just frame and engine. Engine had stood since 2001, but she's running now after lots of swearing etc etc. Brakes all done now, with some moral support included I must add. Clutch and gearbox are next. Then engine out, and frame off to be coated/blasted.

Thank you. Not my welding, but my idea. Seems to be working out ok so far. I'm more motivated today. Brakes are done, and she runs, if a little lumpy. Aquiring parts for other bits and pieces, so I'm on the go again I think. I just have to stay positive, and stop having moments where I just want to cry and stay in bed. They're getting a little less each a day. This trike is my saving grace at the moment. Let's hope it stays that way. Thanks people x [/q uote] see we told ya lol bet you are really glad ya didnt sell it now
