The dustbin looks like it's a bit small for that behemoth.

I like the fairing.  I might give it a nod as I design for the trike.  What ruins it are the burger king hats sticking out of the tank.   :whip2:

Of all the bikes to throw a dustbin on, a cali 1400  ( as shown) would be my last choice.

I’d love to lay on the tank Rollie Free-style and see how fast it would go.  It must be ferociously loud with those stubby straight pipes.
