Nearly there Andy, odd little bits left to do.

I was wondering if this reservoir from the bike will serve the two VW rear brake calipers, or will I need to fit a larger one.

It seems to be working fine, however I don't know the ins and outs of these.

Your views are always most welcome.

It should be fine. I'm using the standard reservoir for the gl1500 on mine with no problems and that's feeding 3 callipers.

Thanks Terry, good stuff, probably would have struggled to find the space for a bigger bottle.

Well that time of year has finally arrived, on the scales.

370 Kg, no....not me the trike, I weigh far more!!!

£10 at my local scrap dealers for my copy of the public weigh bridge ticket. Free if you don't need a ticket.

No, I've got frame that fits onto tow bar and front wheel sits in, then ratchet strap in.

It tows well but tests the rear suspension.

Towing my trike up to scotland on the dolly didn't do much for the front suspension - I later discovered I only need to fasten the wheel to the dolly, rather than ratcheting the front down.
