He decided not to rush/ bodge his first trike project solely to get it on the road this year,it's never been on the road in this guise so we're making sure the welding is redone where needed and cutting off unneeded brackets/tabs etc..only problem I'm not happy about is the original builder welded the axle to the frame rather than made it removable ?
Whatever else you do, i would suggest you help your cousin cut that axle out of the frame. A noisy diff might be easily fixable normally, but in his trike it could mean the end of the love affair.. |

Out of interest, what material did you make the disc from? I went to a fair bit of trouble to make a carrier and bobbins to mate a semi floating disc to my yam r1 rear wheel, it would seem easier to have just made a new front disc from solid....

It's made from mild steel, a local engineering firm did it for me..plus the one for the prop shaft and the new front spindle..  |
