I'd like to point out to the gentlemen that the Lotus7 copies there have your rear off the ground by about 12" with a fairly solid suspension....

Drive a few British cars of the era and you'll get the idea that when you are that low to the ground everything is fast.

90mph in a mini feels like twice that speed in a 911, so 155mph would be trouser wetting good fun. :))

I'd love a caterham7. If that is a little tame for you though they will atek Rover 3l V8's and Ford 2.8i engines...


Back on track, the pipes on the trike appear to be after market silencers that I've mounted using some Harely pipe onto a CB400 collectorbox and then onto the downpipes.

I strongly suspect that despite being marked for roaduse the cans are straight through pipes. I'll post some piccys over the next couple of days.

Tomorrow I go tax Elby which means I'll be able to get some roadtime in on it.

I may even go see if I can get LED bulbs for the light fittings - the Trike is pulling more power than originaly planned for by the Honda engineers - I figure if I replace all the bulbs I can with LED ones then I'll be able to have further modifications, like an alarm on it.
