Well, I got the bug last night and went out and tore into the bike. I finally did some things that I had been threatening to do for a while. 1) Re-routed the MP3 cable into the fairing. 2) Relocated the com cable to the left side of the handlebars 3) Changed the sparkplugs 4) Removed the CD changer cable 5) Cut down the windshield 6) Removed tank emblems 7) Removed front fairing chrome "eyelashes" 8) Installed custom tank bag I want to thank all the people that have posted ideas and help with all the items above. Everything that I read really helped and without it I would not have been able to do half of what I did. Thanks. I will post some pics when I get it all back together.

:mo money:I realize now that I paid nearly twice what I should have for this bike, but there's no turning back now. The clutch is finally right, and the brakes are finally right. Even got venturecruise working. If I had looked at E-bay b4 purchase, I could have added about another grand and had a real nice ride. Oh, well-It's only money:crying:. Anyhow, on to the next project. I noticed that the fork seals are leaking pretty good. Almost to the point of why bother to wash it b4 riding. When I pull it apart, is there anything in particular that I should be looking for? Also, anybody got any idea how bad I'll get burnt by the stealer on parts? By the way, had to go to advance auto parts and rent a vacuum pump to pull all the air out of hydro line for clutch. -
Well I finally got the Trike painted and put back together. Just need to add chrome molding around wheel well. Here are a few pictures. Hope you enjoy!

In my younger days, I spent many a night sleeping on the ground under a tarp thrown over my motorcycle. Always said that I needed to design a tent that I could just drive the scoot into. Well, someone has finally done it. http://domsoutdoor.com/default.asp?sid=E092206&eid=E092206&eicioi=6742 (select tents) While the ATV shelter needs a few improvements, it may be just the ticket for the venture camper...........
