    Paul--

    I've been meaning to ask...looking at your Avatar, are you a musician too?

    Back to the subject--No doubt, you have one special machine there I hope you have many enjoyable hours riding it.

    One nitpick I noticed...the 960 running light on the photo left side appears to be installed crooked. Having done that install on my bike, I can see how that could have happened. Unless this was some kind of optical illusion caused by the camera, you might want to have the guys correct that. Congratulations on finishing this cool project!

    Cool Will Point

    Thanks Hornblower I will ask them about that. No I'm no musician I'm afraid, but I do host a Blues show on my Internet Radio site.

    Looking Good

    Looking good Paul.
    Great to see that the Trike shop completed in time for Christmas. I like the way the build kept to the spirit of the F6B rear end shape. Fantastic job, I know you are going to love it.
    Hopefully the next photos will be you sitting on it with a great big smile on your face.
    Enjoy................Bob.

    Paul, it looks good.

    Recommend a Front Fender Extender...as you can already see the road grime being thrown onto the front of the engine from the short front fender.

    There are several of them to choose from. I went with the Fenda Extenda, which is a flat black, and works real good for me. It is easy to find the "chrome" one, but...then you either have to paint it black, spray it with Plasti-Dip, or...join Steve in the QFC gang.

    Thanks Miles, I have the Fenda Extenda in black on the way. The Rune had a very long front fender and it protected the very fine looking rad, so something as simple as this will help indeed.

    No I'm afraid they aren't, the only part that's left in the MP3 connector.
