That little things is so much fun for kids (big and small). I had to donate mine outside because I was using it too much to get around the house!

thanks brad i may get into trouble as well as i was caught test ridding it in the house by the minster of war and finance ( my lovely wife ) i have made it front wheel drive so if the kids get stuck they can move the handle bars 180 deg and drive back wards. i have made the motor mounts and hope to weld it all together before number 1 daughters birthday on the 2nd of march. i am also hopping to make the seat today as well. more photos soon.

hi all i made some footrest/foot pegs for the trike today i made them straight instead of putting a bend it it as per the book as i have deferent size kids ( OK i want to ride it too ) :cool: hey i am a big kid too. all the kids have to do i pick a color. also changed the handlebars to a smaller set to make it ab-it easier to get in the boot ( trunk ) of our car. i will try to take some photos before and after paint and cleanup :rockon:

hi all i have had to change where i was going to put my motor on the trike as it would not fit under the back where i wanted to put it but i will make it front wheel drive it is essayer to do and quicker. i am going to nq wheels show on the 24 may witch is anything on wheels show if it runs on wheels it is aloud in the show, so it will be a long week for me as i need to build three bikes two two wheelers and a trike before then. i will get some photos of the show and post them as soon as i can after the show. more soon

[choppersrule]

hi all had some problems welded the engine mount on and bolted the motor on then bugger it was out by flypoo lol OK it was out by a whole and a half after ticking my neighbours off with my grinder going last night i fixed the problem tonight even in true zombie building style cut up an electric scooter for the battery box. will mount it tomorrow night.
photos soon.
