Hiya -& welcome to the forum  No plans or drawings I'm afraid. The only snaps I've got of Gypsy & Doro's trike are these. Any use? It's basically a widened standard swingarm, built by Alex Windrush, ex of 100% Biker magazine. I think he covered it in the mag as a feature trike. Anyone got the back issues?

Mine's a GT550 - almost exactly same as a 750 just a tad smaller. It's got a Reliant axle shortened one side so the propshafts match up, and uses the original bike suspension. Pics Here

Looks like he asked the question then disappeared of the face of the earth! - well off the forum anyway.

Good to see you've been keeping busy Mr Pig! Nice GS -I wouldn't mind something like that myself. Obviously you'll be taking a camera along with you & keeping us all informed of your progress.
