No problems o the scratching of the canopy. It is th esame as they use on factory aircraft. I bought special cleaner and scratch remover and use a secial cloth to clean it.
On the CG, i measured the CG and it ended about right under the front seat. Driving it at first, in a hard turn the front inside wheel would lift. I moved the car battery from in front of the motorcycle, to the nose of the vehicle. This moved the CG forward about a foot. and it handles great now.
Your trike looks great! Have you experienced any scratching issues with the lexan canopy? I'm curious if it tends to become scratched or dented easily.
Also, how did you go about calculating your center of gravity/mass? I understand generally the best place to put your c of g in a reverse trike is in the front third area of your wheelbase. It looks like because of where your engine sits, and since 2 people sit in tandem, the weight would be shifted back quite a bit. Again, great job!
Muy buena maquina
