So I got this great little 200M over the summer for a couple hundred..
162949
Tank/carb were full of sludge after sitting for 19 year, I dealt with that and it runs great.
Tires were rotted out from under it and needed replacement..
I got a couple new rims and tires installed for the rear and they're great..
162950
Not OEM size (25x12x9), I went a different way and installed this pair of 22x11x8 on alloy rims I scored from Ebay for $80. They were a dealer dump because they were installed for an order that got cancelled and they couldn't restock as new. The rims were 3/90...never even heard of that size, but I templated and drilled them to the 4/150 to fit the trike and shazam!!
Now the front is the problem..the damn oddball 4/150 hub is killing my selection of alternate rims and tire combos.
Has anyone else played with this setup and found something alternate? I really want to find a way to open up choices of rims but there just aren't any for this hub. I'm stumped..
4/150 to 4/110 spacer would be brilliant, but it doesn't exsist. Anyone that can fab one up for a reasonable price would have a friend for life!
PS. Front end swap is a little over the top, the simpler the solution the better.
