my uncle had an old honda one for quite a while... possibly the most uncomfortable thing to ride ever :lol: i stick to 2 wheels other than the LUV. i missed a corner on his and went over a pretty mean drop.. how much did you pick it up for?

We started into riding with three Honda 185's and a 200. Only 3 ATC we have now is a little 70. Upgrading to quads was a God send.

quads or dirtbikes :lol: my uncle had a honda 200. it went pretty good in a straight line. then the corners come
they banned three wheelers at most tracks and even in the pits some plaes because they are just so sketchy to ride...

Love em. Been ridin them my whole life. Wrecked too many times to count. Respect the lack of weight in the front end and you'll do fine.

This is my current bike. 1985 honda 350x. I believe the biggest 3 wheeler made. I could be wrong.

Three wheelers are great, I started on a little 50 and went to a 350 in no time! In some states they are illegal to sell.

i got it for 80 bucks. and put another 100ish into it.

yesterday was a great day, went riding for hours.

one of my friends took it down a crazy steep hill and the brake isnt that good so he picked up speed and lost control and rolled it over pretty bad... was fine though

then another friend almost rolled it over backwards lol. going back next weekend.

I meant factory made actually.

if you put a 500 cc motor in 1 of these you would never have to replace the front tire cause it would never touch the ground. :lol:

my buddy in oregon put a 900 ninja motor in a quad. called it viagra cause anytime you rode it it stuck stright up! :lol:

I made a set of floorboard fro this a few weeks ago.

I had not been on one in a good 15 years, I remembered quickly why they were banned :lol:

As for an engine swap, the guy who runs/owns my local bike shop has a Kawasaki 220 bayou with a KZ900 street bike motor. He uses it for pulling, but DAMN is it fast. :twisted:

eh if the front tire never touched the ground you would have about the same handling they already have :lol: i have thought about putting a cr500 engine in my old cr125 chassis for aluminum frame etc... but that it just too much power for woods riding

larphead those look pretty dang good.. the fear of that open tire sucking a foot under can finally be put down :P
