I like how your thinking, carbed, old school and Softail. Decisions decisions.

Yep, carbed for sure. Would like to go evo or earlier, a shovel would be really nice.

Not going to build on an existing HD trike platform. Going to have Cut-n-Shoot do the conversion. I'm keeping my Tri-Glide for long two up trips. This will be a more running around locally and shorter trip ride.

Open belt, maybe, also possible a foot clutch and left side tank shifter.

How about something along the lines of a modern day Servi-Car. Old school look modern reliability .

Current thoughts are a longer front end, 2 up seating, wood bed unit. Have been searching the internet, have not found any images that match that. IRS would be exposed/visible under wood bed.

Better yet if there are not a lot of them around something new to the eye that is functional. That would be a breath of fresh air. I am not a really big fan of the black out stuff but in some cases it works. Black front end mostly black with some polished nickle here and there... Screw this light weight fluffy look make it look heavy and bold
