View attachment 34737My '73 I rode across the country for years on her. Never a problem besides burning up points every few thousand miles. Luckily old Chevy truck points fit in them. I had a saddle bag full of them!!Them old shovels --- I don't miss working on them
Wanna know how we solved that problem back in the day? . . Rust!! Yup, we would take a bottle of salt water. Spray it on all the nuts and bolts. Those nuts would never rattle off. . . Or come off with a wrench!!Totally agree . just don't miss the oil and stopping and tightening every thing every so many miles
That's Awesome Skull . Some day i'll post of my trike we built in Orlando fla ... lol I was 13 and thought I was king of the world , my uncle and his bro's actually built it for me so I could ride with them across the US .. They asked me if I wanted to make 1st in to reverse - not knowing any better and waning to be tuff I said hell no ***, god that was one big mistakeView attachment 34737My '73 I rode across the country for years on her.

I see a INGO ride and meet in our future!!
Not having reverse on a big trike you would have to make sure you had buddies to push ya out of some situations! I would love to see pics of the trike. I laugh at the younger guys now. My buddies son wanted to ride to Michigan with me but said he didn't have anywhere to put his clothes. ( no bags) So I took his jacket, spread it on the ground, threw some clothes on it, rolled it up and bungee strapped it to his handlebars. Told him to stop being a *****. No one teaches these kids anything anymore!!That's Awesome Skull .

We'll have to meet at DB's for Root Beer one day.When he bought the THIRD Hondamatic, I told him I wanted a trike. Instead, he got one. It keeps him out of trouble though with all of his "projects".
