rotax 399 in a hard tail

[bcredneck]

i got a motor belt and jack shaft from a 70 skidoo tnt the sled was crazy fast on grass but the track ripped in half and i got a trimoto 175 frame with the front cradle cut out
i was thinking about building a bad @$$ hard tail manly for ripping on flat gravle roads
has anyone tryed this id like to see pics of a similar set up before i even start if anyone has any

[bcredneck]

basicly this and this

except my stuff is crap

[dcreel]

except my stuff is crap

I find that hard to believe... :lol: I kid, I kid..

[bcredneck]

i had the spedo on the sled in the 90s before it broke dont know if it was accurate but if the trike has a 3rd of the weight it should go faster than you would want to go on a hard tail personally i think thats a good thing

Yeah 24hp, must have been a rocket :lol:

[bcredneck]

the tnt was 30 hp because the tnt had a diferent carb than a normal 399 it revs up to 10000 rpm many grassdrag sleds have used this motor with moded headers

[bcredneck]

on sleds one pully get bigger the other gets smaller as the rmps go up basicaly a fully auto tranny i love this setup its also tuneable so i can make it hit top speed right in the powerband

[bcredneck]

a rotax 399 is one of there rarest motors this would be good if i sold it but bad when i brake it

[bcredneck]

a brand new crf 450 has 43 hp so it has less power but it has a has a higher top speed on the sled

[Xfile]

the tnt was 30 hp because the tnt had a diferent carb than a normal 399 it revs up to 10000 rpm many grassdrag sleds have used this motor with moded headers

10G with breaker point ignition?

[dcreel]

Not to mention that the YT doesn't have a front cradle. The motor is under the seat mostly.

[Chazz of Blades]

And the fact that due to carrying three massive chunks of something that makes boulders look like Jenny Craig, you're probably going to top out at about 25 mph with the 399.

I really, REALLY, really, wouldnt even try to put THAT in THERE(yes, that IS what she said). I think you're trying to show me up on the whole deathtrap ideas.

[bcredneck]

iv actualy been planing this for a long time and yes it has points i put much stronger springs when i rebuilt the motor 3 years ago if you think it will only go 25mph youve been smoking some thing look on youtube and see what these motors are capable of on a 450lb sled it dosent mater that the front cradle of the frame is gone its going to be rebiult with square tubing to fit the motor ive seen dune buggy with a 340 go fast let alone a 399 in a striped down trike its not going to be a death trap eather
the motor and the rear end both have brakes and it wont be intendid fo rough roads just for running flat out on graded roads

[bcredneck]

Not to mention that the YT doesn't have a front cradle. The motor is under the seat mostly.
whats holding the front of the motor in then look at the pic i posted the only trikes that dont have lay down motors edit:sorry i didnt see the pastic covering the frame ill find a differnt pic

[dcreel]

whats holding the front of the motor in then look at the pic i posted the only trikes that dont have lay down motors

I'm saying that the motor isn't normally where a Honda or Kawasaki motor is. The motor is located rearward under the seat. It doesn't use a Front cradle as a Honda atc would.

[bcredneck]

the new place for the motor will under the gas tank where it should be
heres a vid of a tnt 399 i dont know if it was a black dot tnt with the same carb so it could be 24hp mine had 30hp

[Dirtcrasher]

Aaah, at least 3WW always has someone new and entertaining :D

[RoscoW]

DC you are so right, I was trying to remember the James9r9r days.

[bcredneck]

if it holds the front of the motor im going to call it the front cradel what the h*!! else am i going to call it the wierd tube thingys then id realy look like a idiot

[dcreel]

i got a trimoto 175 frame with the front cradle cut out

This is what I was talking about. It led me to believe that you thought there should be a front cradle for the engine on a Tri moto 175 frame. I was trying to clue you in on what you would have known with a little bit of searching. Don't get mad at me, I'm just cruising along with you waiting for the trainwreck. :lol:

If putting that motor in a yt175 is what you want to do, then do it.. Just.. for the love of God, put some brakes on it.

[bcredneck]

the jack shaft and the rear end both have brakes the one on the jack shaft can be used to start in the power band with a lower gear ratio so it can take off faster or hit it before a hill

[atcrider1]

not trying to be a dick, but that motor wont rev 10,000 rpm's, its not rare at all almost every sled brand used a 399 at least once, and that sled would never do 90, maybe on a stand

good luck

[bcredneck]

they only had a rotax 399 for two years because they where also making a 400 it made no sence for them to make both when theres a 1 cc diffents it has a tac and it easily hits 10000 rpm with no belt 8500 rpm on grass

[briano]

Keep reving that engine up with no belt on it and you won't have to worry about using it in a trike, have you ever seen one of those clutches blow apart. Just start building it already so we can see the progress.

[bcredneck]

these are the parts im starting with the main reson i know how fast the motor gose is because i blew a clutch on grass it took out the plastic gard when it came apart

[bcredneck]

do you guys think i can use 2 yz 125 headers on this motor

[dcreel]

do you guys think i can use 2 yz 125 headers on this motor

Yeah, Cut them at the headpipe, turn them and make drag pipes out of them. Or you could cut them at the headpipe turn them and make a set of zoomies out of them. That would be SICK! :D

[fabiodriven]

do you guys think i can use 2 yz 125 headers on this motor

Yes. They are a direct bolt-in.

I am loving this thread by the way. I think you have a great idea here.

Oh, by the way- :shiftyeyes:Trailpros:shiftyeyes:

[bcredneck]

i whant to have the pipes come flat out the sides

[scooterroo]

rocking the trail pros all the way around!!!

[swifty]

snowmobile motor in a tri moto why hasent this been done before? i know the last time i rode a 125 tri moto i thought boy do i feel safe i wish this thing went like 80mph to get full use of all the suspension and handling thats being wasted with this under powered 125cc..... please send me a notice of when the funeral will be

[Chazz of Blades]

Too late bud, I already called him out on the boulders, 25 mph tops......

[Chazz of Blades]

And at least we know his suspension can handle that speed.....

[swifty]

i dont doubt if you could get everthing hooked up it would go pretty fast im just 100% sure you would die before you the end of the test ride

[bcredneck]

its not like im going to go super fast and kill myself i know fast i feel safe and im not going to go faster and ill have 2 rear brakes because the jack shaft has one and im going to find a rear end with one

[Chazz of Blades]

I'd say try and find a tri-z or 250r frame and work with that.

[350XJEDI]

i cant wait ,we need video of the test drive ,.it does seem like a suspended trike frame to start wuold be better , but if you hit the golf course in the rain you might survive!! GOOD LUCK !!

[Spaulding350X]

I say build it!!! If you have the parts why not. Throw some paddles on it and take it to the sand drags. Anyone ever seen those old conversion hard tail frames from the 70's?

[Spaulding350X]

Just because the idea of a large motor in a short frame with no suspension is kinda far fetched, don't mean it may not work. Because it maybe it will. Who really knows for sure until it's done. Just don't let the haters kill your idea. But make sure it's safe and the BRAKES work.

[portland250r]

mart did a project with a small trike heres the video of it running.
skip to 1:14 to hear it run.

[skidoo99]

hey i had one doing 90 once. it was in the back of my pickup though

[Thorpe]

DC you are so right, I was trying to remember the James9r9r days.

Took the words right out of my finger tips, before I could type them....

[bcredneck]

i looked at different frames this can only be pulled off with a hardtail because the end of the jack shaft with the spocket has to be above the rear end i was thinking about puting paddles on the back and a ski on the front

[bcredneck]

figered out where the motor and jackshaft will be mounted pretty cool looking set up i need a big steel gard so i dont get caught in the belt ive got caught in a few differnt parts before imagine your jaket strapping your back to a dirtbike seat on the hiway and whaiting for it to fall over at speed

[Chazz of Blades]

If it HAS to go in a hardtail, start looking at bigger hardtails, honda's 200 series, excluding the 200x were all hardtails, and I know the 200es Big Red had front suspension. MUCH bigger area to work with as well.

[bcredneck]

theres a 185s in my yard and ive looked at a 200m frame the frames tubes are mostly curved and at wired angles and alot harder to work with the yamaha frame is simple and easyer to work with and it will have front shocks

You willling to make a wager?

[bcredneck]

shure if it kills me you wont be seeing me on the site but i think im staying around

[bcredneck]

im going to get the motor done today it needs 1 head gasket and putting together i checked the pistion and rings man they used to make stuff to last the rings are thick as h*!! and in great shape and std pistions not even coverd in carbon and rotary valves no reeds to replace

[Bretmd94]

Woah where did this thread come from!?

It is looking very dangerous in here. I like it, keep it up.

[bcredneck]

just remember trikes dont kill people you kill people

I kill people? I have been accused of alot in my many years, but never that.

I am just razzing you a bit because, well you make it easy. So are you done yet? Hurry up and get it in there!

[bcredneck]

if i make brakets out of a bedframe do you think it will be strong enof to hold the jackshaft in place cause i dont whant to weld it to the frame

[atctim]

Is it a single bed or a queen or king bed? I think it will make a difference.

[bcredneck]

king sized

[CRAZY70MAN]

Is it a single bed or a queen or king bed? I think it will make a difference. LMFAO!!!! That was mean but so so funny..........I would use a waterbed frame at minimum. lol Just kiddin........I think you have some good ideas there, get er' goin........I will be watching the thread. Tubular steel is your strongest, I would use square tube at minimum, you will have some torque issues there with the sleep number bedframe angle iron I think.

[Thorpe]

Oooh What about a hide-a-bed??? Or even a futon???

[Bretmd94]

A trailprotrailprotrailprotrailprotrailprotrailpro bedframe?! I guess steel is steel. Lets see it!

[bcredneck]

i need to get my grinder back today so i can start cutting steel on the sled there were only 2 bolts holding the jacksfaft on on the trike im going to bolt everything together then weld so if a weld brakes i still have a bolt holding i plan on useing square tubing to hold the motor in cause that would be a bad place to cheap out i already put my freinds 07 klx 250 motor in this frame
there was only 2 inches of ground clearance it was killer on ice until it broke that motors going in a go kart now

[krazykane]

man i thought we came on here for ideas and be cool with each i think some of you guys should try and help the guy and maybe even give some ideas so it will be safer .i dont know i just got that vibe and man if you want it go do it .just be safe

[fabiodriven]

The bed frame will work fine.

[bcredneck]

insead of useing square tubeing im going to make the frame with the bedframe and after im going to weld round tubes into the inside corner of the bed frame pieces i think this will be alot sronger that way

[Chazz of Blades]

Box in a piece of tubular.

[bcredneck]

dug some parts out of the shed the tank was from my home made yz 125 got a free motor and start colleting random parts till i had a bike it was funny as h*!! i rode it for a year and it looked like it wouldnt go 10 feet

im useing a 18 rear dirtbike tire with no sprocket for the front

[Macs]

You are going to put a dirtbike front wheel? I wouldnt go that route, it will handle worse than it already does. Also love the decals on the tank, Nice! I am really surprised you havnt lost interest on this yet or got side tracked. You are really working very quickly. Now get it done, we are waiting on the maiden voyage vid!

[bcredneck]

its a dirt bike rear wheel i used it on my 350 while i was getting my tire fixed it realy helps in the snow cause it dont slide
triples for trikes are hard to come buy are else id be useing a normal one hopefuly i can get my grinder today and start the real work ive got the motor running already the cluch is about to fly apart again i can get more so thats not a problem this is my 3rd
and dose any one know if 2190 is high mileage for a ski doo

[200XMichigan]

Are you going to make some kind of guard for around the clutch? Wouldn't want it to take out your leg if it blows apart. But I like the idea, take a bunch of junk that's lying around and make a trike. Enough people take trikes and turn them into junk. Better to see someone turning old junk into a trike.

[tommerp]

Ever see a snowmobile belt shred at speed? Tore the whole side of a hood off once.....

As for bed steel.. I'm not sure it was at the same level of strength that fabrication steel is - but I could be wrong.

And for the Rotax... how much does that and the whole clutch system weigh alone? just curious how much it will be impacting the gross weight of the ... what's the word I'm looking for here... Frankenstein?

Good luck. Really really can't wait to see a finished product

[bcredneck]

the motor cluch and jack shaft weigh about 60lb and im deffinatly makeing a sheet metal gard my old plastic one shaterd last time i blew a cluch and one of the wheights whent threw the hood and the bed frame with have tubing welded to the inside corner that should be stong enogh its not like im going to ride it all the time i got a 350x for normal ridding

Watch you leg man....that could be bad news if you don't get it all alighned properly??? Way to plug along........

[Dirtcrasher]

Using hose clamps to hold down that intermediate shaft is brilliant! Fast, easy and I bet you could even mount the motor with them......

Looking good so far :beer

[bcredneck]

thats just to hold it in place well i figer out how to set it up

[bcredneck]

i did some work today and got the frame pieces cut im going to find a welder tomorrow i know a few

Do you want a bit of trike with your motor?

[CRAZY70MAN]

Do you want a bit of trike with your motor?

Gettin there.......have you tried any mock fenders?? Lookin' like it will be pretty tight to get a fender in there with the clutch so tall and close?

[Chazz of Blades]

That things packed in their tighter than........maybe thats a story for later......

[atc350xer]

Where are you going to put your legs? That is one wide motor!

[bcredneck]

i put a seat onit to see where my feet will be im going to have wide pegs theres no way im going to have rear fenders or exsast pipes but every time the pipe fell off on the sled it whent faster anyways i might figer something out but i dont have much room im building this thing out of crap and not putting any money in to it so as long as it runs ill be happy

It went faster with no exhaust pipe? which means no back pressure/scavenging.....this engine just keeps getting more amazing! Well, If you don't invest much into it, you can't go wrong....but I would buy some ear plugs...that thing is going to be loud!!

He very well might be dead by now.

[bcredneck]

no im still living and working on this but ive been busy on other stuff and looking for more parts i need ill have new pics by the end of the week

[bcredneck]

the reson i know it gose faster with no pipe is it still has a 6" pipe before the exsaust and when the coffie can shaped pipe fell off when i was ridding there was a noticable power difference when i shut it off i could hear kids cring at the motel acoss the street it is insanely loud kinda sounds like a machine gun i was ripping in town in the summer on a sled people where looking at me like i was on drugs or somthing

[Thorpe]

When your exhaust note makes dozens of little immigrant children cry, you know you're doing something right! Please for the sake of the few of us that believe in you, don't ever give up on this project. Trust me, a coffee can is a good substitute for an expansion chamber, that or old glass packs. Just be sure to keep that bong loaded. I can't wait to see some videos of this thing terrorizing the residents in your town! It's going to be so awesome.

[Xfile]

The "coffee can" he is referring to is the early ski-doo canister style mufflers they used in there sleds...you can see it in some pics in the earlier posts....These ultra-high flow, two into one canisters let the fire breathing power house 399 rotax engine spin freely up to 8,500 rpm and with no belt, they can free rev to the almost never never land of 10,000 rpm....breath-taking...LOL

[NINJA]

Yes but an actual coffee can has better flow because it doesn't contain any performance suppressing baffles.

[Xfile]

Thats true....I prefer the stainless maxwell house sectional myself.....but I hear juan valdez racing is coming out with a new "can" in the spring.

[Macs]

yeah, I heard the Juan valdez racing one will be plastic. Now that would be bitchin!

[2Tim215]

bcredneck, I would change out the bedrail frame with some thicker angle iron or round tubing, round is stronger than square. I have used bedrail on a few projects and the metal seems quite brittle, actually breaking near the welds. Seems like the weld tempers the brittle steel in a way where it snaps easy near the welds. To prove my point, take two pieces and weld them together end to end about 20" long for each piece then try and bend it in the center where your weld is and watch what happens. I fabricated a full size Truck Rack which worked out okay but the rack vs something with power attached to it are two different things! Just curious, have you ever tried to cut bedrails with a sawzall and metal blade or drilled a piece? Takes the teeth right off the blades, even good Milwaukee blades which I think hold up best and will eat up your drill bits. I only use cutoff wheels now if I use any bedrail for projects. I like your determination but don't skimp where it counts most. I would also reconsider the front end. I know you are working with used parts and whatever you can find laying around but a wider front tire will be more stable for what your trying to do. Maybe you can find a wrecked 200X or something with a good front end? Sounds like you have a lot of stuff laying around, try trading for a better front end! Hope it turns out well, be careful and be safe!!!

[cosmohawk]

I was shaking my head at first...but now I'm fascinated at how some people can create something from nothing.
I usually just end up throwing lots of money at a project...so that it "bolts together"...instead of having to improvise.

This is getting interresting...

[Dirtcrasher]

Your gonna hurt yourself, I'm sure of it :lol:

[bcredneck]

i was talking to the guy who was going to weld this up but he offerd me a wicked deal on a running suzuki 750 street bike
so im going to make a crazy hill climb trike insted it should be way faster this pic is not the bike im getting but its the same model and year
http://homepage.ntlworld.com/fred.woolven/images/Finishedredbikethm.jpg

[Chazz of Blades]

If the bike looks good, don't ya dare chop it up, find an old motor, don't destroy a good bike, that'd be as bad as someone chopping up a good trike to make a quad.

[bcredneck]

the bike needs alot of work and has no papers all the good parts are getting sold to pay for 350 parts if any one needs any thing pm me any thing i dont need will be dirt cheap

[Xfile]

BCR..........say it ain't so!!! You need to finish the skidamaha first! You can't take it this far and leave us hang'n'....

[Macs]

How bad is the old quad? If you change your mind about chopping it I have a bunch of waterbuffalo parts that will swap over. Just for the price of shipping let me know

[bcredneck]

is not a quad its a 750 street bike

[bcredneck]

is there any one who can biuld a costom swing arm if i give dimentions i dont plan on hacking a 750 in to some thing this has to be done right with the stock frame or i will die and im still doing the sled trike

[Xfile]

Awesome! Thats what I like to hear...keep on keep'n on......

[fabiodriven]

this has to be done right

You should have somebody else do it then.

[bcredneck]

i want it to be basicley like this http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tR5Aev3n7D4 but a trike

[bcredneck]

if i pay some one to build a swing arm i can do the rest my self my dad has been welder for 20 years but he wont help with anything

[Thorpe]

Who says Dad doesnt know whats best... He probably doesnt want to take on the impending medical bills...

[bcredneck]

in canada we get free medical and i use it i got 2 plates and 14 screws holding my right arm together

There is a difference between using it, and abusing it....

[Chazz of Blades]

I'd almost bet money that those two plates used to be hunks of truck hood, and the screws came out of an old couch.

[bcredneck]

no they gave me titanium so it dont get ripped out if i have to go in a MRI the scars remind me of my 350 plastics

[CRAZY70MAN]

Where is the project???? Did you wreck it????? What is the status of the 399 rotax hardtail??????

[fabiodriven]

He's gone into stealth mode with this one for a while. There are certain procedures at the point he's at right now that can't be photographed due to pending trademarks. Look out TPC!!!

[Vealmonkey]

I know at one time that were hardtail frames made to take the kawi h2 750 triple 2 stroke, so 399 isn't that bad. They were really meant for desert riding though. I figure that would be just a tad scary on hard pack or pavement.

[Chazz of Blades]

But in a 125 frame?

[Vealmonkey]

No, but that is why I said there were hardtail frames made. They were just a tad safer. Now, I have seen some really unique trikes built that have ended up quite nice, but were built with a little more forethought as to safety. There was a drag trike on here built by a board member that took a much larger snowmobile engine, but it wasn't based on a 125 frame either. I've also seen a couple trikes that I really wouldn't want to show pictures of for one reason or another, but each their own. I really just don't want to see anyone get hurt from poor engineering and lack of knowledge.

As long as you use bed frames from the super 8, the steel has been stress relived already and should be good to go.

im still working on this im waiting for a rear end and to borrow a tig welder it not just bed frame for the frame im going to put round tubing inside that and weld the carp out of it and plate steel will be bent to fit the bottom of the frame where its bolted together

82 and later the 125 and the 175 is the same frame. Heck, pretty much 82 and later the 125 and 175 is the same engine, except for the clutch and the top end.
