• There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.

Birthday present - “some assembly required” Reverse Trike model!

Hmmm. I'm thinking it may be 1/8 scale. Or at least the engine is. Just under 1450cc on the toothpick displacement calculator. 1/5 only works out to about 350cc which would be an absolute howler! :yikes:
Wonder if it's an artificial intelligence design thingy or there's some connection to an actual prototype? :dontknow:

Well - the spousal unit just gave me a birthday present. Black box with “Zylegen” meant nothing to me. Opened it, and started pulling bag after bag of what appeared to be Lego-looking pieces out …. Then found the assembly book. Is a build kit for a model reverse trike similar to the F3 series. There’s somewhere between 103 and 16 million pieces! Will post back in the following months with progress reports … :yikes: :helpsmilie:

My wife also decided I needed this for my birthday, so it's sitting somewhere till August ;)
 
Only know two things about the engine set-up - 1) it looks fairly scale in the model {wish we had V4’s in the F3-S}, and 2) compression ratio is ZERO !!!
 
Didn’t realize I had failed to show the completed (several months ago!) project.
