Wow now that's tough! At least he has got a good sponcer on board.

I actuly tried to mate the rear end off my YFZ onto a WR450 once and I tell you what it's not far off. Worth looking into plus you have full Reg too

On an American forum Im a memer of they had pics of rodworthy quady trikey thing. lol
They put a swingarm in a quad to take 1 wheel so it is a trike but you can change it back ready to race in about an hour. I thought it was pretty cool. Very Happy

Yo Speedbump What's going down Dawg? hahaha

That's a hell of a nice build there mate congat's on putting the hours into an awsome trike and telling us about it. So what's it like to ride compared to a normal trike. It must feel weightless
