hydraulic controls
i'm building a trike with two front wheels and a drivers cockpit. the rear of my trike is a bike without any real changes to the main bike. i
was thinking of using hydraulic connections for the excelerator, clutch and gear change as well as the braking system. has anyone else used this kind
of system in their own build and if so can you surgest the best way to connect these systems.

trike
You find that most of the connection are banjo and if I remember on my honda its 10*1.5, if your keeping the bike as a whole item and just bolted to a
front chassis thats probably the easiest and quickest route.
However you are not allow a hydraulic handbrake for MSVA so you'll have to figure out a cable caliper to mount on the rear bikes disc or go to
Merlin motorsport and get a handbrake kit for your front calipers.

thanks for your message
thanks joolsmi16, i didn't know about the hand brake requirment that you have bought up. i will have to look into that and see what i'll do.
as for photos of my trike, i have only just got the steel for my frame, the bike its self and the steering rack. i have done most of my design and
made a modle of the frame so my freind who will be welding the frame can see what he has to do. untill i get any photos heres a basic plan that i will
be building.
