Rear Wheel drive:

Here is the 08 Honda Goldwing rear swing arm I won on ebay. I've decided on rear wheel drive and will be using it on the beetle back replica. It came off a new goldwing to make a trike.

Working on the drivers side:

Here is the foam attached on the drivers side. I am learning some techniques as the project unfolds. I am still looking for an engine and am struggling with the decision. I really wanted a K1200 RS engine but the engine I found is already gone. So on to the next one. Maybe an R1 engine? 180 HP? or R6 130 hp 17000 RPM? Stay tuned in for the exciting development of the Crockett---Rocket.

Finishing up the right side of the outer panel. The panel will be removed and then fiber-glassed on the inside and then attached to the bulkheads. Thanks to Jared and his friend for their help in doing the large area. Today a neighbor asked what I was building (It was so nice outside I could not stand doing this work in the garage) I asked what they thought it was? It looks like a boat. It definitely is taking shape.. It would probably float very well but it is definitely not a boat.





This shows how stiff the sandwich composite material is. You can see where the foam is not: it is very flexible. Where the foam is: the structure is very stiff. I made this to show people the materials we are using.

Fifth bulkhead is attached and now we will start putting the sides on.
