    Default FAF(florida old fart) motorcycle owner for 55years, now building a trike

    I have owned a motorcycle since i was 13 years old( now 70 yo). I now collect the real odd jap bikes like my yamaha srx250 and Kaw eliminator 900 and others. I've been a admin for a reverse trike forum since 2004. Now i am finally building my perfect idea for a reverse trike. Built a few off-road delta and tadpole mini trikes in the last few years, but sold them because i'm too old for the rough rides. I love building cycles and trikes but the cage drivers here in fla are scaring me off the roads lately.

    I've made a wood mockup of my new trike build and now starting to weld up the frame.

    That looks interesting but a bit small. You should be afraid in Florida. That's why I ride at night. No deer here in Florida to worry about.

    Welcome to the Gang from Western Colorado.

    Shouldn't be Florida Old Fart or FOF not FAF????? I may be wrong because I confuse easily.
