Special red front fender to match the later model Honda Red, ordered the 200X mounting rubbers to mount to tripples.

Rear hubs painted to match Gold of front forks.

Front Hub gold as well

And clucth cover as well as swingarm and tappet cover will be in that same matching gold.

Head has now been changed to CRF and carby as well. Just waiting on frame and as I wanted to fit a bigger fuel tank this is taking a little bit longer.

TPC's...yes they are selling. There is currently a waiting list. We can not build them fast enough. They are also winning on the track with four different winners on three differant TPC's. TPC's have won more races than all other 450 conversions combined.

here are a few...

Eric Jensens race trike





What part of the world does Eric Jensen live in? Is that sugar cane in the background?

It's the extra CTP insurance that we have to pay out here that is the killer,
Currently for my ATC200X
Admin fee $19
CTP $119
this goes up with size of engine and amount of wheels.
They don't have a catergory for this as a trike so it will have to stay regoed as a quad.

Not to mention it's fraudulent (so to speak) they make us pay it but we also sign a declaration to say "yes we have, blinkers, horn, lights, break lights, reflective tape, etc" it's a joke if something were to happen, fingers crossed it never does you're not covered. So you're paying $100 odd dollars for nothing.

Your spot on Butcherboy, Fraud committed against users of the system by the owners of system. The NSW government.

One of the first times I got NSW stockton rego I raised this point, and the answer was, don't aggree to this, then you don't get rego, don't get rego, then we fine you for riding in the area without rego.

So I paid the fine, er I mean temporary rego fee, so I wouldn't get fined.

Way to Go NSW! Don't fire me up, by crikey..... TPC trikes are awsome, just make sure you retrofit some indicators etc....

There has been a delay with the Frame coming from TPC Trikes in the U.S.A with Bill having to attend some events as stipulated by his sponsors.

He has also done some modifications and improvements to some parts of the frame and these will dramatically improve the look and also clearance for various critical items and allow the use of non standard fuel tanks.
I will post up some more updates as I progress.

I saw this in person today and i must say, i was really impressed. The whole thing looks seriously tough. Everything on it is much beefier (especially the front end), the pics dont do it justice. The colour is great. From what i saw this is nothing much like a 250R. Im pretty keen to see it go.
