"is there any reason that you can think of why we shouldn't run it like that?"
So that's why I'm so deaf,being clipped round the ear all the time |

i think your chop looks firkin briliant pie . the over all look is what i would have liked to end up with myself but we cant always get what we want . is the bar ends got flat lense indicators in them ? .
Thanks Bummer, and well spotted they are indeed indicators built in to the grips. |

will they keep mr mot man happy and will it mean you dont need rear one's . i spoke to a man at a show who had the same idea and he didnt need the rear ones as you could see the bar end ones , lies or truth ?

As far as trikes are concerned, I spoke to Chris, the MSVA inspector who writes on the 100% Biker forum, & he said bar end indicators were fine for the front but you'd still need normal rear ones cos they'd assume your elbows would obscure the bar ends.

i thought it would be a bid dodgey and thats why i have probably the most ugly set up for my rear ones as you can get. back in the day my dad had bright orange arrows on the side of his pudding bowl nothing to do with looking cool just turn your head in the direction you are turning , not sure if mr plod would see it like that nowadays . or maybe even back then

No updates yet, at the wiring stage so not a lot too see. Also trying to find a petrol tap to fit the tank which is turning into the quest for the holy grail!
Need a 3/8" NPT I think, if anyone has one.
The mudguard is a 6" Triumph Wassel copy bought from Barons speed shop.
Good luck with the wiring!

It's now fully wired up with everything working, paintwork is completely finished and all "I'll do that later" jobs are done.
All there is to sort out is to find an inline petrol tap that isn't a plastic lawnmower one and then hopefully it'll start first kick (yeah right) and off to the MOT.
