    gonna be an attention getter for sure! A lot of trike in a small package, damn near dangerous! Most folks enjoy looking at something different, I know I sure do. Enjoy the attention, you have certainly earned it!

    Well.....

    The bike guys did look at it a lot and say wow a lot. But never really understood just how modified the engine/drive train is. "That's different cool"

    Then went to the car show. Those guys definitely saw/knew/understand how modified it is. They were picking up the details. Then coming back and looking again. Got a lot of "every time I look there is more detail".

    Overall it was fun getting some attention.

    I do agree, there is a lot of fine detail and work done to your trike. It is a masterpiece, if not yet, soon.

    I am not vw guy at all, like everyone, I've owned a bug and loved it. What you did to that vw motor was awesome, even if I didn't understand it all. Your whole ride is a testament to your knowledge and skills as a designer, fabricator, mechanic, and inventor. My hat is off to you and I think it's great that the car guys gave you some props, even if the bike guys were clueless ... nice job.

    If you had not been along for the ride here in the forum....and you were to walk up on it someplace.....

    I am gonna assume you are not a motorhead but that you are a long standing bike/trike enthusiast.

    You would also be "I dont know but it is different".

    Maybe one day we will all be at a rally together.

    There is not much around me here.

    I hope to put it in the trailer and take it with me on family vacation.

    I am not seen a lot of shows, a few, we have something the call Hot August Nights, was for cars and street rods but these last 4 years they have had bikers show up a few days before the car gig, they do call it something.

    My point is, it is loaded with nice work and rides.

    If I were a judge, wow, think I would have to give the award to that mid mounted VW Trike.

    I can think of 3 different class's that you would have won over here, and I mean easy.

    I just can not believe the time and effort you put into the trike to get it where it is today. Awesome in so many ways.

    Rex I've been reading since day one and I am still so impressed with your work. Anyone that knows anything can appreciate your creation. Stand tall and be proud.

    How an engine sounds, is important to me...your trike is definitely pleasant to listen to....seems to pull real easy at cruise..... begins to sound mean with more throttle. it has multiple personalities I am sure! Nice trike and scenery!

    Wish you could tell more.

    But all I have is the cell phone.

    I had thought of getting a go-pro when girlie was racing dirt track. But got a telemetry unit instead.

    This is the road to the church. I do live a bit rural.

    I have to get more serious about tuning. All I have been able to drive and laptop at the same time is real small low speed snippets of time. I need to find a way to run it varied and hard while holding a lap top.

    I wonder how much abuse the brakes can take? Put it on jack stands and power up while holding the brakes......maybe.

    Then last Saturday morning I made a small highway trip (its first).

    This show was advertised as 8am to 2pm.

    I was around 9am getting there. Very few to show up yet. The organizers said they really did not expect people to show until after lunch. I did not have all day to hang out and wait on show time. I hung around about an hour then hit the road. Was back home with my girls by lunch time.

    I have done some data logging with and have found some problems. Took a while to find the cause and it appears to be self inflicted.

    My seemingly....(buy ear)....lean popping during more aggressive throttle is not a lean out. The rotation pulse would skip or blink in and out. Micro skips in fire and with no pulse there is no fuel either.

    Lots of hunting for where the connection is lost. Found it. Right at the VR crank trigger plug.

    When I was first getting the electronics to boot up and do what they are supposed to I had that issue that the ford parts have to boot before the computer. During that trouble shooting I picked the wires out of the connector to check polarity (the vr and plug are not marked and it was all a guess to start with).

    So somehow I left the clip out of the plug. Now the connections are not tight. I guess the vibrations when hard on the throttle breaks the connection.

    This is not the connector, but is the style ford has. That red part pulls out then the metal clips pull out the other direction.

    So I hafta get a plug. No clue where the red clip went.

    The o2 is blinking also, but it may be from the same.

    just curious....does the ford module and the mega squirt boot at each key on? or... is this booting, you speak of a one time setup thing at mega squirt setup?

    I briefly mentioned it here.

    https://www.triketalk.com/forum/thre...ne-else/page48

    But did not go into great detail.

    The computer is set up to "turn on" all the other engine electronics. Fuel pump, sensors, ect. And that is how I had it all wired up. It was supposed to turn on the ford module.

    But.

    With the ford module off (un powered) the computer saw it as a dead short. Then would shut down to protect itself.....wait a few seconds....and try again. Something you will see called "resets".

    I had to move the power on for the ford module to the key on relay. This way the module is booted before the megasquirt. The computer sees it and is talking right away.

    So it has been a while since last post here on my old thread.

    After discovering the missing connector clip I rigged some thing up and got that intermittent issue patched (but not fixed).

    I got a couple good logs and was hammering on it a lot......a whole lot.

    The oil cooler started leaking and I was down a couple weeks.

    Finally got a new cooler and back together, but then did not have any time with it. Just busy with everything else, sickly wife, busy kid, ect.

    Actually where I stopped the tuning at is running quite well, but I am sure there is more to do.

    So it sat for a few weeks with a full tank of gas......waiting for me.

    Then I finally got a day to play. I have not tuned any more, but rode all day.

    Cruised a tank at the 50mph speed limit. Got 24mpg.

    Then on the way back ran 65 to 70mph and got 25mpg.

    Must be a tuning thing.....
