Been mostly a Harley guy. Looking at a VW chopper for backup ride (hate being stuck on 4 wheels). I'm told it is a 1971 Bug engine with electronic ignition and drum brakes. Person who is selling is a motorhead and sounds like he maintained it properly. I'll be looking at it in person later today. It's too good a price to resist. His reason for selling is retired. Moving out of state to be near grandkids and has too many cars/bikes.
My question is, do most of you do all your own work on VW based trikes or do any car mechanics not shy away from some work? I can read a repair manual with the best of them. Just not a lot of free time with work.
I wouldn't plan on running it more than 2k/yr, but with me you never know.
