ok, prgress has been made, heres the youtube vid of the engine running,http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w4BjQcNz4Jg, it is ungodly rich and needs a new head gasket and exhaust gasket which are getting ordered, i found a yamaha exciter secondary drive for free from a buddy and am gonna use this as the driver

it will fun to a jackshaft whick will drive a 10 tooth sprocket to the 44 tooth, u can kinda see our progress on the trike in the vid, we have made a frame in the back for roll over saftey, it should do hella cool wheelies, lol, it is a montgomery ward t555 trike from what i can tell in the vids, but it has either aftermarket or custom forks for a fat tire, today we added a pipe support, we are gonna take the motor off soon and make some anit vibe motor mounts and paint the frame, still needs lots of things, but its coming along

i'll get some updates pics when i get a break off basketball, we got the anti vibe motor mounts done, put the head gasket on the engine, got it all mounted, everything is all painted up, its all good, now we need to fix the air filter, it is a crappy peice of milimeter thinck crap foam, gonna pick up a pre filter from the tractor supply to use, gotta get the jetting spot on, then it should be good, to slap a chain on and see if it moves before we buy a snowmobile drive setup
