    Recreational toys have gone full circle at our house, Took the sons new scooter for a ride, I’d have to say these are not for the faint hearted, It feels like your arms are getting pulled from your shoulders, I brought this for my son’s 14th bday, ive now sat him down and tried drumming into...

    Drift Trike Re-Birth!

    Well we havnt even started her up and “Sickness” has developed an alignment ailment 😂😂😂 It wasn’t until I got it off of the stand and stood back to view it, Ive noticed the motor wasnt perfectly positioned, I tried moving things about but if I want to be serious then it’s a hole modification...

    Bicycle Photography

    Ive found when photographing a bicycle theres two things I find of utmost importance, 1... handle bar background, 2.... the position of the crank n pedal, if ya can get those right then the pics a standout even with a bit of blur! ive seen so many pics of bikes and the entire bike pic is good...

    What have you been riding lately?

    We've put some BMX bars on the F6, its actually transformed the ride a bit, for the better I may add! way easier on the body than the old wide custom bars I made, she's well run in now and its a really nice ride at 20-25km, she tops out at 40km and its not really heart racing at all, in fact...

    Drift Trike Re-Birth!

    After a few dozen buys with no problems but my own personal mistakes I have finally been bitten by the WRONG ITEM POSTED scenario. I ordered 7x11, 10-5 But instead got 10x4.5-5 Way smaller than wanted They look stink, im in two minds as to sending them back or try them on the mini quad, that...

    Drift Trike Re-Birth!

    It turned out great, looks the part too, I really wish the whole thing was chromed but in any case im wrapping the system with header tape, Ive taken my time and made sure everything fit and theres heaps of clearances for anything,

    Drift Trike Re-Birth!

    I spent a bit of time sourcing pipe n stuff for the exhaust system, same as the mini quad the idea is to extracorise the exhaust and also create a bit of back pressure within to give the engine a bit to work against, the original exhaust is just a choking box, made cheaply to get them to run...

    Drift Trike Re-Birth!

    So the airbox got a full rebuild, it was starting to come apart , the newer system went on the mini quad, theres just more room on the trike for the oversized filter, (another failed ebay buy) The mini quad loves his new pipe n filter,looks cleaner and way more tidy The old box off the mini...

    Drift Trike Re-Birth!

    Assortment of parts, The small PVC angle was from Bunnings (equivalent of home depot in US), the small rubber seal is just a piece of bicycle tube, the filter is a failed buy for the cafe racer and the clamps were found in a drawer, Assembled it looks like this, The whole assembly will get...

    Drift Trike Re-Birth!

    OK so back into the swing of things, there quite possibly could be a build off bike yet so we'll have to see, I do have pans but.... Anyway ive started the airbox mods, its really only removing the factory air cleaner and replacing it with a more open flow, this coupled with a more free flowing...
