Title: second trike almost done
Post by: tony b on September 01, 2010, 08:53:59 AM
after completing my first trike ,which is now ready for mot ,i decided to build another one for my dad ,he has a gt 750 trike but wants a reliant one ,so im having the gt trike when his is done,it took me 4 days to build the frame on the second trike and im in the process of fitting rear springs for the seat and forwards,then its time to wire it up and get it on the road,well what im getting at is ,a guy told me he had some reliant bits he wanted rid of so i went to look and i now got enough bits to build two more ,ha ha ,i got 2 engines ,one of which has been rebuilt from the floor up.3 gear boxes,a prop axel ,complete front end and also a part built frame,how much ya say ,well i payed a total of,£100 and he delivered all of it for free.

Psst -Tony. I've just had an email from new forum member Steve Brock, who lives in Ireland. He's looking for Reliant running gear to start a trike project. Might be able to flog him your spares & make your money back.  ;)
Confused me when he emailed -my brother's name is Steve & his user name is Brock!
