Not a problem, that's what were all here for. Looking forward to more pics as your project progresses.

Well I got the engine mounted on the trike! Please do not judge the way I did it. But these are things that I had laying around. It is fully adjustable. Total cost was $7.50 for the nuts and bolts. Now I'm waiting for my sprocket to be mounted and welded to my brake hub assembly.

The inner plate on your driver is on backward.

Yes. I'm aware of that. It was dark and I just threw it all on so I wouldn't lose anything. Thank you though!

Got me a K.C.M. 420 chain.

Got my Mikuni carburetor. I had bought one of the knockoffs from Ebay but I returned it and got the real deal. I had ordered a throttle cable but it doesn't have the correct ends on it. The one that came with my throttle knob is correct but it's too short for the build. I might try to grind the ball on the end a little to see if I can get it to work. Or maybe just return it.

I've ground down the ends b4, but be very careful not to nick the cable, the 1st cable I did I nicked the cable & got about a year out of it b4 it broke.

I've got to return it. It's too long. Even after wrapping it a few times it's just too long. It a hundred inches. Plus it doesn't have the threaded part on the end for the throttle knob. I was going to take that piece off of the cable that came with the throttle knob kit and put a slit down the side of it to fit the cable through it. But it's too darn long.

Get a piece of string and run it along the route for the cable, then measure the string to make sure you get the right length cable. A couple inches long, you can deal with that.
