Welcome to the Worldwide V8 Bikers Forum

Trike is still for sale and needs a new home.

Bump

I'm on the mend and getting along GREAT! Already riding stationary bike 25 minutes at a time and then walking 20 minutes on treadmill each day. The low sodium diet is a giant pain in the ass but I guess the other option ain't so hot either. Not supposed to drive for a month but been driving every d...

Parts are still for sale.

Is that a trick question?

Looks like Winter is starting to peter out here in Tejas.
Supposed to hit 80 degrees this weekend. Sure hope so cause I'm tired of these high teens-low twenties crap with the ice & snow. Ready for some North Texas Heat!

Is your trike sold now? My neighbor has been talking about a V8 since I moved here ... I've been working on him but did not want to push your 57 anymore if it's gone.

It hasn't sold yet,Don. The trike is at Texas Boss Hoss,on consignment.

1901 Edelbrock Quadrajet carb,bought it for our 57 but never installed it,exc cond,$200 shipped in lower 48

I say :madfinger: winter ... I can't get out of here fast enough :tequila: :tequila: :tequila: :tequila: you bearded yankee folks deserve all the crap that God will give y'all. BTW, I'm still fighting the War. I reckon that we have to put up w/ y'all in March in Daytona again. Nice paint job, too b...

That was some funny shit.

Hell,just looking down from that height would make me shit myself.

I'm at work till 7am so tip one for me,ok?
Happy New Year!

Looks like an IH Scout and a Hummer mated.

It does look kinda cool,though.

Dave

So,that bar does not go through the yoke and the trailing arm heim ends,to line them up?

Unfortunately,I'll be working the 7am-7pm shift tomorrow. At least,they pay me double time and a half on holidays. 8-) Sherry will probably be with her folks in Southern Oklahoma for the day. Probably taking the trike down to Texas Boss Hoss on Friday or Saturday. Looks like it might be headed to a ...

Sherry and I would like to wish all of you a very Merry Christmas and a healthy New Year! 2013 has been an up & down year for a lot of us,I know,so hopefully 2014 will be even better. Thanks for all your friendship as we have been truly blessed.

Here you go,Dave. http://www.v8bikeriders.com/forums/show ... +alignment

I'll post the link to the tool needed tomorrow,Dave. I'm at work,right now. IIRC,the cost from Boss Hoss is around $100.

Ok,I found Neil Webber's guide to BH trike rear end alignment. Hope you find it informative.

Bill,if it's not ok to post this here,accept my apologies and just delete it.

Clint, what does the BH tool do? When you let go of the bars on the trikes you rode did it normally only wander in one direction such as to the right or to the left. I'm trying to end up with a trike that only wanders due to the crown of the road, on flat road it wouldn't wander. Do you think this ...

This will have an effect if the rear axle is locked or coupled by a limited slip clutch. In that case the tire that has the larger circumference will push more than the opposite tire. I do not know if Dave has that type of rear end. If not then the only option is alignment of the rear axle. I'm pre...

Thanks for making the day better,Bill.

Well said,Dennis. I'm sick of this crap,too.

Looks similar to an Ohlins shock.
