Harley servicar - sportster trike: The beginning

August 30, 2005

Here is what my trike looked like before I started to redo it (about 3 years ago). I had bought it off of ebay and just rode it as is for a couple years. I decided to sell it and was just going to do some cosmetic stuff first. It turned into a complete frame-off and House of Kolor paintjob. It has a ‘76 ironhead sportster motor, ‘81 lowrider front end (narrow glide), a servicar rear axle (with hydraulic brakes) and a custom frame.

It ran and drove OK, but it just looked generally crappy.

Chopped, channeled and sectional.

Here I cut down my metal framed futon so that the mattress fits the narrow way side to side. This makes it much smaller and yet still usable as a bed.

Here is the unaltered frame, about 6′6″ long.

First cuts with the sawsall.
