Good video Glenn. I could use one of them on my driveway. Gravel has been beaten into the ground.

That hauler was towing a Jet truck, couldnt get the picture with the trailer to load as it was too big.Tried to edit it and it loaded this time but picture quality suffered but you can see it all now.

Dad had a 53 Packard Clipper, sold it to a friend just before he passed.

Have a great day all!

Total Rebuild

Such a cool rig but I wouldn’t want to try to take it too far from the interstate

Dennis, seeing as I'm an old Harley bike builder, for me to even think of buying a Honda would be momentous, LOL besides bigger to me isn't important, my days of riding fast are way over

I think you mean 1800. They make a fine trike.

It would be a good dependable vehicle to bop around on seeing the sights. There are a number of positive attributes to the 1500.

The 1800 would be a better bike as a trike. The extra power from the fuel injection handles the weight much better and gets better mileage. Also seems to be less finicky to keep running well.
