Trike Rebuild in Progress
We bought this trike with the idea of redoing it. We have changed risers & handlebars, drivers seat and we built a slider to go with it. I re-wired the whole bike ,front to back. I have started reupholstering the rear seat, I hand stitched the Flaming Skull on the back rest part of the seat, (I'll not do that again). Lots more work to do!! I took her for a ride on Christmas Morning & almost froze, but it felt so good to be back in the saddle !
