The insignia is the image of Crazy Horse the native American War Chief who resisted the American expansion into their traditional hunting grounds and more. It was adopted by the Lafayette Escadrille, the WW1 flying squadron that was compromised by British, French and American aviators before American officially joined the war. They had a pet lion as a mascot.

I thought them a very noble group, liked the insignia and since I had the honor to know one of them that I met back in 1959 (he was an elderly french gentleman at the time and a family friend) and regarded him as a man of honor I just thought it was appropriate.

I spotted one other TM member in the USA who had it on his Three Wheeler and inquired if he minded me adding it to my machine and he had no issues at all. So there it sits.

Javier, Thank you. The i-beam is supported by the two 4x6 by 8ft long beams that rest on the ceiling joists. One of those beams by itself lifted 440 pounds so I am sure 2 of them should be able to handle the Morgan engine and Centa.
