More importantly, is the fact that he is and has been quite a contributor to the VTX - Motorcycle world, sharing his vast mechanical knowledge and do it yourself web site with fellow bikers, for as long as I can remember. Thank YOU, Larry
I definitely welcome Larry's mechanical expertise and insight to this Forum.
Just my opinion,

Yea it's me and still into Hondas with a new F6B and 1 Rune (down from 4), 3 VTX1800 one with a turbo and a kawi 650 just to keep things mixed up in my stable of steel steeds, but enough about me and not to anymore let's keep on track and Paul's great looking trike.
I can't wait to hear a sound clip of them pipes and a pic of him on the road
Miles is right, that is a trike emot ya just can't see the third wheel.
The guy who invented the first wheel was an idiot -
the guy who invented the second one... he was the genius!

Hi Everyone,
Thanks very much for all your kind words. The good news is that it's here, and Miles my wife and daughter think I'm gorgeous, so that's good enough for me
The bad news is in the cold light of day it's clear to see that the paintwork has suffered badly on the way up. The rain cover used while transporting her up has rubbed off the top layers of paint from the fenders both left and right, and from the corners of both panniers
I pointed out some of the scratches to the guys last night, but the daylight has shown lots more damage to the paintwork. The guys at the Trike Shop have agreed their mistake, and I'm now finding a painter to repair ALL the paintwork.
Having said that, I do love the bike, and I'm looking forward to getting out for a ride soon. Scotrod the pipes are off a Victory so I'm told. They don't sounds as mean as they look, just a nice purr. Once I get the bike washed and all cleaned up I'll get more pics, and a sound clip too.
Thanks again everyone for your support, and I'll keep you posted.
Cheers
Paul B........

Sorry to hear about the damaged paint!
The only GOOD thing about the paint damage is that if it had to happen, at least it happened in the 'off' season!
Most of my 'malfunctions' happen during primetime!!!
