The trike: it runs and now its for sale.
After hooking up the bare minimum of wires, some oil the oil tank and some gas in the gas tank, I cranked up the motor to see if it would start after 3+ years apart. It did, though without linkage hooked up, I wasn’t able to open the choke quickly enough and stalled it out. But after cleaning the now fouled plugs it ran nicely. So at this point, its officially for sale. I’m going to keep working on it (needs the brakes hooked up before I can take it for a ride), but I put it on craigslist as is.
Why? Well, the house we live in is on the market, so we may have to move and finding a place with sufficient space for my tools is hard enough, without a big enough garage for 2 harleys.
And since this particular project has this urgency to it, I feel like I shouldn’t start on new projects until its finished.
You can post in the comment section if you are interested in it (there’s a remote possibility of a trade or partial trade).
