1-The one on the left is the original. It is a 2012 "icebear magnum",300cc,liquid cooled, auto transmission,chain drive, 1f-2r trike.

2.-After destroying a perfectly usable machine. The materials used are .063" aluminum and 063" lexan. Lexan is a super friendly plastic. Try torturing a DVD disk.

3.-It worked ok even after changing the drive sprocket, from 19 tooth to 29 tooth (52% overdrive) but l was uncomfortable in cross winds. This led to a complete reworking and lowering 14 inches. This called for rebuilding body, frame, and wiring.

4.-This is the shape of the belly pan. It is 36" wide and 96" long.
