Okay ... so all of a sudden the wheelie bars make sense ...
Sharp looking Dave!!!!!!!!
However, a 1776 is NOT a stroker engine. LOL. Its a stock 69mm stroke with over size 90.5mm bore pistons and cylinders.
Stock 1600 cylinders are 85.5mm bore.

Sure ... take the fun out of it for the rest of us ...
She should get up on her back wheels pretty easy, especially with the weight of the fuel tank being mounted behind the engine
If you already said earlier, sorry for asking:Who did the engine build?
Pfftt......little motors....Sure ... take the fun out of it for the rest of us ...
Lol
Just poking.
Looks good.
Have fun.
You are right Dano, 90.5 pistons and cylinders. Runs very well. I am very pleased. I will get the parts list copied and post it

Very successful ride this afternoon! What a blast! Very controllable power and I am a big boy so I counter weight the trike nicely.
Great rebuild for an 8 week project. Thanks for all the help guys!

Snu's working on getting 200 hp from his trike ... if you've been watching his build (rebuild) ... I gotta feeling he's gonna make it
