I hate to say it, but it probably will happen pholTmonx. And there probably will be pic's as well.

A chopper top? What's that?
Luke.
Wow! The sliding sprocket adjustment is Genius! Everything about this build is amazing!
Hey guys, go back to around the middle of Luke's posts...much discussion about tops back then....
The wide sweeping turns at speed, say 10 mph or so, on a downhill cant will be the test of stability. But maybe you don't have any of those there. 
Looks pretty flat!

Thanks @ADVHOG!
Pretty sure they were just continuing the joke and putting pressure on me to build one!
It felt really good, much better than that cargo trike I build earlier, pretty sure it would be fine unless the rider did something really silly. Probably helps that the heaviest parts of the trike are the rear tires which are right at the outer edges...The wide sweeping turns at speed, say 10 mph or so, on a downhill cant will be the test of stability.

Thanks @MazdaFlyer! Or should that be NissanFlyer these days? Didn't you sell the Mazda and buy a Nissan?

Don't know what I'm doing, gonna do it anyway.
You know I like a good trike, this is one of the coolest...but....
I think Kel might give you a run for the money with his.
Now.... what's going on with sammy's trike? I'll have to check.

There is no doubt this is a crazy year in Class 2!
Some very cool builds happening, really looking forward to taking Kel's trike for a spin, it just looks like fun!
Luke.

No no.... Only joke is trying deny knowing it can carry it off well!

Aa.................
I don't think a chopper top was ever intended to be subtle dude....It could, if I was a foot shorter...
Luke.
Don't deny, you keep seeing it an envisioning it...
Maybe just a showcase lift off top
Or just put in ad seller must be under this hight to ride this ride... Built for minis... It's all marketing

Great job Luke. I'm glad to see that the test ride went as planned! You've got some cool engineering happening with this one.
The video cracked me up at the end with the drive-bys!
