    Ok thanks that serial number part could be off another frame or bike the tank has a chrome knight swoosh …. that reads 1300 …. I found the tank, on eBay …. Honda Shadow VTX 1300 ….. Now to find how bad my frame is ….. whole thing was $100 …. so I'm sure I got My money's worth ….

    lets be safe out there
    I believe they are a stick job because of all the splatter on unwielded parts, Gussets and re-enforcement plates are defiantly in the works ….. The guy that did this should have His license revoked …. The reason I can't proceed is I have a new Lincoln wire welder ….. I just don't want to weld standing in water ….. Poor bikers have poor ways …. Outdoors is My workshop …. I can see a pretty piece of Diamond plate on both sides of the neck area …..

    So, what I did was to grind the 1/4" plate down to a 45 degree angle …. but I in your opinion …. need to completely grind weld off, then weld the bead back …. ??? …. Welding on top of another bead won't work ? the seam on top of large gusset plate looks strong ….

    Yeah, that's a very special area …. It's possible I cut this section off depends on when I can get the Corvair motor out and give a look to see how it will land on the frame …..

    Post Collins Corvair trike

    I have a Collins built Corvair trike that I bought in 2012. It now has a '65 110HP engine. I had the engine, trans (powerglide) and differential rebuilt. New Rochester carbs, one wire alternator, Pertronix ignition. I ripped out all the wiring and ran new color coded wires with a fuse block all in 2017. Still cheaper than some new trikes. I've done 3,000 miles, all local, since the end of April when I sprung it out of the shed. This never had a fuel gauge, the guy I bought it from suggested topping it off every hundred miles. Does anyone have any information on this trike build? Gas tank size? I use 1st gear only up to 20 MPH, second gear for all the rest. It does wheelie pretty easily.Click image for larger version.

    nice ride u have

    i would suggest make a new thread for a post unrelated to the original one

    for the tank.. take a gallon of gas with you, ride till you are out of gas, put in the gallon, go filler up.

    then put some more miles on and figure the gas mileage then you have an idea how far you can go before you have to fill up

    course you could drain the tank at home but loose the ride

    if you can wheelie that easy. you are pretty light in the front, which makes me think the front end might want to slide some on a "spirited" ride.. while wheelies can be cool id suggest getting enough weight on the front to keep the front end on the ground before you hurt yourself or someone else

    not far from my hometown hollis center

    respects
