    It can be done to probably ANY quad, similar but different.

    TPC trikes makes them - not cheap though.....They make cheaper ones and to the upwards of 20,000$ depending on the mods and add ons.

    ATCTIM has been chopping up TRX250X's into trikes and using 200X front ends (not sure on that, could be 350X front ends)

    But, most of us who want one just build our own. There is too much labor involved to pay someone else to do it. If ATCTIM has them down, he may be willing to chop one up and make you one for a cost with whatever front end you want on there............. Shoot him a PM!
    All our government does is distract us while they steal from us, misspend our tax $ and ruin our country

    dude, trikes won't always be there for you to go and buy. If you are truly a trike fan and want to build a 3 wheeler from a quad go for it.

    if your going to convert a quad do it with a quad thats not going to dissapoint you.


    This is my trike.
    There are many like it, but this one is mine.
    My trike is my best friend.
    It is my life. I must master it, as I must master my life.
    Without me my trike is useless.
    Without my trike, I am useless.
    I must roost faster than my enemy who is trying to beat me to the finish.
    I must beat him before he beats me.
    Before God I swear this creed.
    My trike and myself are defenders of track.
    We are the masters of keeping quads the losers.
    So be it ... until there is no quad left.

    i have thought about geeting a 250r but where we ride at is nothing but swamp land i mean water bog holes you name it. there is some sand hills but not many so i didn,t think a 250r would be that good of a choice under those condition,s..i could be wrong?

    Muddy and swampy? You're probably on one of the best 3-wheelers(250SX and YTM225 are best in my opinion)) for that type of terrain now.

    The 250 sx or 225 yamaha is the best for bogs because they are automatic . you can hopp them up and put on larger mudder tires that will gripp digg and push. Wooly Boogers are the bomb in mudd!!!
    A 350 will have so much power you will not be able to hang on, it will stall and you will get exhausted starting it over an over.
    Just my thoughts.

    when you say hop it up are you talking about bigger tires, it is hard to find a tire in 25x11-8 that will work most tires are 25x12-9 i am looking for 25x11-8 if possible i may have to go to a 9-inch rim
