Based on advice in the AtomicZombie forum, I shortened my bracket and pulled the flag in closer to the body of the trike. From the front of the trike, you can see that the flag tip is the width of the trike when making a left turn. I also had to tighten up the left axle bolt, and the under-seat steering unit. Less slop in my steering and front end now. Don and I rode our trikes together yesterday on a short 2 mile circuit. Racing downhill back towards the shop was a lot of fun!
This is looking straight down the center of the trike (no rear wheel sticking out to either side).
Side-by-side rear photos for comparison. Do a vertical line up from the left front tire and look at the difference in the amount of pole visible before it hits the base of the flag. I definitely brought it in. But still feel comfortable with the "protection" that it affords.
