    If you going to use it as a truck you need to mod the dam thing before you start.

    Looks great! When you said Moto Metal I envisioned some 22x12s with a black rubber bands wrapped around them. Lol

    Exactly. It's going to change where ever the good Lord wants it to.

    Trike is plenty cool and guessing 40+ MPG's. I'd like to check out the Can-Am Spyder myself.

    On my 05, the cam chain slack adjusters went out at 50k miles. That's a slightly different motor ( yet still a twin cam) and the rumor has it that they came out with better adjusters for 06, but that rumor was out for 05 also. So keep that in the back of your mind. And, it doesn't look as though that it's a true trike frame, so the steering geometry is a little different (steeper) so highway speed steering is going to be a little "quicker", but if you've never ridden a trike frame you wouldn't know the difference.

    Pulling those back wheels and tires, I'd guess more in the 30's range.

    Wife said yes. Give it time. Do some exercises to keep the scar tissue down. Roll a hard ball between your palms.

    Heat mod seemed to work on the walk behind. Will find out on the next storm. Did a little more around the house with the tractor. She needed a good thawing out after. Hopefully I won’t need them for a little bit.4153B5AB-0A8D-4ED3-B6D8-E1E541E412BF.jpg

    This is from the earlier storm but it didn’t look any better... lol

    They build a Ice Castle in Eagle River too. I don’t know where they get the ice but they have a bazillion lakes to choose from.

    I took a Spyder for a drive when they first came out. SUCKED! Damn thing wanted to throw me at every corner. You sit too high and it doesn’t tilt like a bike so you have to slow way down in the corners.
