Not exactly on the trike itself, but it's winter snowbird transport device has a newly painted floor and ramp.
Got a little paint on the anti-slip strips, oh, well.
This had to get done, I'm thinking of painting the walls white later this year.
The cleats are for a porta john and stacking plastic tubs, bungee cords hold them in place. The chock removes easily for stuff hauling duties.
The only other thing I really need to do is to paint a 1/2" wide black center stripe from the flap to the chock, makes it easier to lie up for driving in.

Been busy shopping and ordering "goodies" to make her look sharp!
Installation of said "goodies" will commence as soon as they arrive.
Appointment scheduled for mid-Sept for the 1000 mile service, chrome front end and perhaps handlebars and exhaust.
I need to start riding to get that mileage, eh?

I finally got time (and the get-up-and-go) to start adding some of the "goodies" that I have receive so far for the trike.
Was going to adjust my handlebars before installing the chrome bezel for the radio but soon discovered that I don't have the ball-style hex wrenches so I had to postponed that until I go get a set tomorrow.
Still a productive effort but I think I may need to have the remote garage door open done instead of trying it myself but I'll decide on that later.
So far, tour pack luggage rack with light, adjustable ride backrest, Custom Dynamics programmable tail/brake lights with strobe, Kuryakyn mudflaps, Kuryakyn 3-pouch windshield bag, chrome rear speaker grills, instrument applique w/chrome bezels (front speaker grills as soon as handlebars are lowered) headlamp, passing lamps and turn signal trim rings are done.
Have the saddlebags, chrome center caps to be installed (maybe tomorrow) or I may wait until I receive the rear bumper rail as I have a feeling that the wheels may have to come off (again) for installation of it and I'm debating the DK lift kit.
Maybe handlebars and exhaust at the 1,000 mile mark but that will pretty much do me for this season......maybe

I got most everything done to day with the exceptions of installing the saddlebags and center hubcaps.
I have to templates in place in order to start drilling for the saddlebags but time got away from me today and then the "skeeters" starting getting pesky so hopefully I can do so re-measuring tomorrow (measure many times, drill/cut once) so I can wrap things up and perhaps take the wife on her first ride on the trike.
