    The Dwarf in the picture looks to be enjoying the heck out of it!
    Does he get to drive? I hope you can fit in there! Those old honda engines are great!

    Thanks for the picture of the engine, that is really neat! I live about 200 yards from a Harley Davison Agency and wondered whether an enclosed trike would give good mileage but the big Harleys only get about 35 mpg and it is not worth the effort to get a few more mpg. I don't suppose you have any mpg data for the dwarf?

    Don with the right setup a 80 cu inch Harley will get 45mpg. Also the old 4 cylinder Honda 750cc engines are capable of excellent mpg and quick accelleration with their 4 carbs!
