Yep that would be the one but mine requires a lot less effort

Ok so time for a bit of an up date.

Ive been riding it to work most mornings un till the front motor mount cracked out, so I thought ok I'll just weld it up and that worked for a while till it happend again so I thought time to do it properly.

Started using the welder at work when gardener offered me a welder that I could have for $5 so I thought what the heck I'll give it a go



Then I got a bit of scrap metal from the work shop next door $2 and proceded to reenforce the whole lot ( I think it actualy worked fairly well for $5)





The I bought some rubber mounts they set me back a fair bit, but I did have to specially get them ordered in the front ones are rated at 80 kg each and the back is at 35 each. If I break this set up I don't what else to do so hopefully it works





Now the next thing to so is get it painted so can put it back to gether and I have to make a new exhaust cause the motor has moved the old one won't fit so a good time to make an expansion chamber for the chopper

I had this idea, no rego, cheap fuel low maintenance, high death risk. Ended there

The trike sounds cool you'll have to put some pics when your done

As for the engine mounts I just really hope it will work this time but I'm having fun with trial and error

Well had a big day working on the chopper and I ended up painting it mat black and then got it back to gether enough to test out the rubber mounts and what can I say the paint job came out a treat and the motor mounts an epic fail the motor twists about 6 inches with out even turning over so I think I might go back to the original design and hard mount it and hopefully it wont break again cause of the reenforcing but that's for a nother day other wise the misses will be up me for spending to much time in the sheid
