not too bad of a pick up man. you going to repaint it ? if you are talking about the head nuts and bolts they do loosen up after a rebuild or when the top end is pulled off. min does it even when i torque to spec and beyond. but i did find out loctite works great. but hell nice deal man.

Lookin' good Dan!!! I've got a question about your tank...you said it's an aftermarket Clarke, right? Is it plastic? 'Cuz I'm curious about the decal on it. I'm having lots of problems (bubbling up) with the decals on my Clarke plastic tank on my 70 but I don't see any bubbling on yours. Thanks for your help and congratulations on a sweet looking trike! :thumbsup:
