Cool. Who can identify those 2 strokes? I know Kawi had a famous triple back then, and the twin looked a bit like a Suzuki 500, but I'm guessing wildly. Anyone remember those vintage bikes?

The one has a rd350 or 400 motor, a Harley engine in the other? Beautiful chrome and paint too.

I think the triples are Hirth engines. I really like the RD powered one. Im gonna bug him some more and see if I can get him to keep scanning stuff.
Hes got lots of his and his friends sandrails. He thought I would get a kick out of the trikes though. He was right. lol HH

I've got the later version of the first rd350 powered trike. That one is all hardtail and mine is all suspension though. I've contemplated of putting my h2750 2 stroke triple engine in there.

The Hirth's are 793 Honkers. They were primarily in snowmobiles in there hay day. Arctic Cat used one in what they called the KING KAT 793. They bring great money and are a favorite among collectors. Many snowmobile manufacturers used them in the 70's.
