This 3 wheeler is so very fast and ohh so much fun. It is a 1986 CR500 frame, engine and front forks with a custom 12" swing arm and steering headset. It has a 1985 fender, seat, and axle. Oh yeah and it has a fuel injection system. Right now I have it carburated but either way it is a blast. Built by KD Cycle Yuma Az.

I saw that 500 when Sprock and I went to get oil and other stuff at the motorcylcle shop In Yuma. That looks like the shop In the back round. Cool

Will get some more pics of the system up for you, and Yep on a fast start leaning forward is a must. Fast pick up. It's a blast and to some way scary.

they also turned the forks around to make it longer..the ride comfort is sorely effected, and they dont 'track' worth beans:crazy:

High there 500 fans. The fuel injection system that is not on the bike at
this time is from MRD. It has a pump that is powered off of the water pump
shaft and runs on meth or fuel with a charge of the popoff valve in the system
It make the 500 rpm like a 125 . And yes it is a handfull of fun.
The front hub is a stock 250r machined and polish in my shop. The front forks
are not stock trun around they are cr500 forks that the triple tree was machined
for the larger fork tubes. If you look at the top u wil see how far up they sit.
The bike was built over 9 years ago and does not see much riding anymore.
Other toys to play with. Thank you for all the ? Delmar
