Default Just a quick hello ...

Name's Greg but trade as 'ol_mate'.

God fearing man ... married to Cathy ... 'my little lovely' and have two adult daughters, who between them have given us 4 fantastic grandkids.

Been riding since somewhere about the mid 60s. As of 2 years ago I am a lower left leg amputee ...

The current project is a H-D trike rebuild for 'the little lovely' and myself ... When it started living with us, it came as a '77 sporty frame, which had a 'servi-car' drum diff axle rear end ... Had a 1000cc iron-head bottom end with 1200cc evo barrels heads etc. Wide glide triple tree and forks and an S&S carby ...

So far on the tare down few to no new surprises that I wasn't previously aware of when I bought it ... Most everying's now off it so ready for the final degrease, cut and chop and mods to the top cross bar, single springer seats and disk conversion to the rear wheels. First 4 jpegs are what it is now, the 3 others are where I would like to go with this ..

Glad to be aboard and thanks for having me ... from Bribie Island - Brisbane - Australia
