I like it and tend to agree with your feelings for spaying the light surround and rad end covers. But what about also spraying the wheel arch covers?  |

Design or Art. Yer ok, it looks crap; but I thought it may help the design discussion.  Attachments:

It's not that bad !!!
but your right.. does look better with the front sprayed...
wheel arches are nuts... just flat bits of steel bent round... if i was going to spray them.. would have to get some fiberglass arches.. rear wheels need looking at too.
if i do the front i may also spray the the rad ends yellow

I must admit afteruploading it seeing it small I thought the same. I did forget the endcaps though, so I have added them to the mix. Attachments:

Thanks Guys...
she is in a lot better condition now than when i first got her.. now to answer your questions,
1. did i do the conversion.. no.. got the trike and another ntv 600 from good old ebay.
2. whats it go like... only bike riding experience i have is on offroad bikes ( currently have a 500cc honda 2 stoke and that fly's ) but the NTV goes o.k. not that much heavier. trike i think is slight lower geared than the bike would be so probably accelerates just as well but will lack a bit of top speed. been over 90MPH accidentally and still seemed to want to go faster.
3. Belly pan..... no idea. was on there when i got it. have had a look and does not have any name or manufacturer on there but did have a carbon affect before it was sprayed green originally. also has a custom make mount bracket so must be an after market job.

thanx for the speedy reply on the belly pan. i think that any belly pan i find will need home made brackets to mount or some modification. i do like the look on yours though. you have a 500 2smoke hey? bet that goes a bit ha. i have an nsr 250 which i have cafe raced and oh dear it goes. surprises a lot of the 600cc bikes in the twisties. ;D thanx for the reply and i hope all is well. good luck with the trike.
regards peewit

It uses the stock read shock of the NTV with the pre-load adjuster, but someone had put a different one on ( butchered ) with pre load stuck on.. could have been a different unit as it did look slightly longer.
