iv read most of this thread and i must say  you have done a brilliant and professional job on your swing arm.
nabs advised me to have have  a look at what you have done as im now mid way in my gs650 gt that i got the other day however iv got ask one thing , when you ride this trike  do the rose joint twisted when turning, i ask this as im mid way and have discovered  a lot of twist, but as yet not finished the bracing so this may be  resolved as yet.

Hi v8dodger and thank you for your comments, i have used this method on quite a few trikes and have never had any twist... once you have fully braced it you should not have any probs  Smiley
