Nice Forwards, The amount of work your putting in on these trikes is certainly impressive & makes me feel like i'm going backwards  Grin

I'm running a zx6r back wheel so it was easier for me to do a jackshaft & run the chain on the opposite side than it was to run an offset sprocket. Partly my own work mr kawasaki's standard frame arse end chopped off & hardtailed

longboarder, I see from your profile you are a fair way out, but your trike wouldnt have been at a bike meet in Sussex about a month ago? If not there was a very similar Scooby powered example there.

Thank you. Might take a week or so to appear onsite cos Yoda's getting seriously busy at the moment & I still rely on him to do the clever bits here on my behalf. All contributions will definitely be used though.
