3-building a backbone to house tank,and seat
4-mounting harley solo seat

Iv build several FWDonor trikes includeing a couple of GM V6s.

The high wide strut towers are a challange to make a decent looking with.

Stake beds are pretty easy and semi affordable to build.. and can look decent while haveing the space to carry stuff...

My latest is a very long low hiway crusing Accord/Bettertrike. The donor was crashed in the right front.. I used the door post area for the referance points to BOLT on a exo-skelleton frame painted bright white with the Accord stuff painted black. I think its a pretty good look.. Kinda naked but very nice at the same time. :cool:
