I did it again...I purchased another Doodle Bug and will have another project.
It started with me buying my daughter her DB30 ( which I P&P, removed governor, and added a header pipe). Then I bought one for myself and renamed it the Doodle Devil ( added Devil's tail sissy bar, side mount gas tank, TC with 7" driven, street tires, 53T sprocket, removed gov, big jet and e-tube, air filter and header). I also added detachable leaner style type side car with Devil horns ( that is where my 5 year old boy with special needs will ride.
Now I needed one for the wife and my 3 year old son. I wanted to do something cool and thought I would take a wack at trike build (I use to race ATC's in the 80's and love 3 wheels).
I plan on extending about 6" and adding a dumbmy set of handle bars with foot pegs for a child to sit in front of the adult. It will have a live axle (because that is what I have at the house), torque converter, and wheelie bar. I also have a 5hp Briggs flat head with gov removed, P&P, header, and manifold to accept clone carb bigger jets.
I have a 40" axle and the wheelbase of a DB30 is approx 36" so adding 6" seems logical.
This is the place to be for MB's and trikes. Everyone has already been helpful ( " Thank you " ) so it is time for me to start this build thread.
