Welcome to the Worldwide V8 Bikers Forum

There is just so much inspiration on this site. I just had to get me a project!!!
So Mike the Stripe started to build this trike, then he bought 2 Ed Roth trikes and did not have any time for this trike. So he sold me this one for way tooo much money. I have had it for almost 2 months now. Parts showing up in the mail every other day. I have been having fun working on her. Lots of internet time!!! I was hoping to get her ready for Florida, but..... I don't think it will work out. I will try!!. One great thing about this trike is the oil pan is already installed. I can do everything else. Every day it looks more awesome. Just started to order things for wiring. it is getting closer. It looks longer then the orange one but it is not. It has a 383 stroker and a 700r4 and a Jaguar rearend. Looking forward to the first ride, still a few months out.

"Bad Ass Trike" is an understatement by the looks of it!! Can't wait to watch the progress and hopefully see it in Daytona 2015!!

what kind/type of body is going on it?
Buck

That is one fine project ! Please put some more pics up. I'd like to see the setup for the TV cable since my bracket is not quite finished , the rear suspension,driveshaft, and cooling system plumbing. I was wondering if it has a lockup converter in it ? I'm biased on why I think you have the perfect drive train combo ! thanks jeff

Mike got his old trike back from me. It will be interesting to see how that one shapes up now that Norm has it. Since it has no oil or anti freeze in it I doubt that it leaks anything and that should help keep the oil pan safe for a while.

We spent all day a Corbin today getting a custom seat made. Next week the body panels. then some paint. Take everything apart and power coat the frame. Taking a lot longer than I thought. It is going to be bad ass

The wiring pan under the seat is finished, the part behind the seat is 90% and the dash is 90%. should finished these and the side panels next week. the paint will be sublime green!! the beast will breath soon.

Looking good- keep the updates coming!!!

Hi Norm,
how far are you with your Super Trike Project,
I hope you get well along and everything goes well
as you have done it to you !!

We have lucky to see it in Daytona ???

Regards, Uwe from the old Cold Germany

Hello Uwe

The project is coming along. Slower than I wanted. Hope to get body parts to the painter soon.
She was looking a little sexy........... so I gave her some see through clothing.
Going to be different. But we all like different Some colored lights behind the mesh. Yea baby

I like it!!! Any chance we will see it in Daytona?

I don't thing I will make Daytona!!

All the body parts are at the painters. I am taking the frame to get it power coated this weekend. Reassembly starts soon.
My garage has never been so messy, it's driving me crazy.

Final assembly has finely started.
Still some painted parts are not finished. The power coating came out nice.

Hot diggity dog!!! Wow looks awesome but did not expect the frame to look like that - never saw one stripped down like that!! Powder coating does look great! Can't wait to watch the build!!

Maybe Biketoberfest Norm?????

Can't wait to see the final product as it should be very very unique.

Quick question...did you clean the pan good???? Sorry Bro....LOL

Very nice project in motion.. question, are you planning on keeping the "zoomies" on it and do they clear the body ok? That'll be an ear popper for sure!

Nice powder coating scheme too.. have not seen that on a bike frame before. I imagine your teeth will be clenched on every move as not to scratch a thing! looking forward to seeing the finished beast and of course, hearing it!!

Great job man!!

Jim

Norm is that new Beast going to fit on your Lift? Looks close to too big! I too love the powder coat also! tom

Update after 6 nights of working on her. The color is not what I picked out. But I believe it will work out just fine. Lots of work left.

Looks good so far Norm..what is this new line of trikes going to be called?????

looking really good!!

Soon, Very soon!!!!! Maybe this Sunday it will start. Still waiting for head light and a few other parts.

It might be my imagination playing tricks on me..........but I think your trike winked at me.

Looking very good.............and very bad Norm!!

Make sure to take a video when you start her up!! (and share it).

Looks great Norm! Love the exposed look, especially the engine and zoomies. Can't wait to hear and see it going down the road.
