Title: Just A Thought Post by: reliantman on September 24, 2007, 09:37:41 AM If someone were to fit a Gold wing lump into one of your frames, Andy, do you thing it would look like Chris Ireland's Lowlife?

Title: Re: Just A Thought Post by: Manky Monkey on September 24, 2007, 12:27:50 PM Oooh, Chris'll be crushed.
"Lowlife" was one of those iconic creations that made a huge impact on the custom scene when it appeared in Back Street Heroes number 43. http://www.chrisireland.co.uk/trikes/lowlife/trike.html Nothing quite like it at the time & it inspired a lot of people -including me.

If you remember I have already suggested putting a CBR 600 lump in one, but thinking about it earlier a GW lump would be ideal. Its about the same length as a piggy engine, and shaft as a bonus. Plenty of grunt as well (gettit?) ;D Title: Re: Just A Thought Post by: Manky Monkey on September 24, 2007, 12:35:12 PM Oink.
The guy who bought the GS850 trike I was building for Rainbow a year or two back, was planning to fit a BMW engine in it. Anything will fit in anything if you're determined enough. Title: Re: Just A Thought Post by: reliantman on September 24, 2007, 01:21:50 PM Try putting a different engine in a Ural frame. The bottom rails are only six inches apart, and if you cut the frame its classed as a major modification now.
Title: Re: Just A Thought Post by: panthershaun on September 24, 2007, 08:32:06 PM I love Lowlife, and its supercharged ;D ;D ;D, saw Longlife at Stormin and heard about the one that never was Highlife.....
Title: Re: Just A Thought Post by: Manky Monkey on September 24, 2007, 09:13:20 PM "LongLife".
Title: Re: Just A Thought Post by: retro900 on September 24, 2007, 11:51:31 PM That is worse than the other one, fugly. Mind you it would look nice with all the kiddies xmas presents sat around it.
