What are my options for a trike that would accept a quadzilla LT500R engine? TPC, or someone else?

I bought a quadzilla last year, in pieces, and would love to put the engine in a trike and sell of the rest of the quad to help fund my project. The frame, all control arms, and swingarm were freshly powder coated and in very good condition when I bought it. The engine has a fresh rebuild with 0 hours on the rebuild.

What options are available? Fire away.

Atc250r cuz an lt500 motor bolted into trx250r and the mounts are about the same motoe. Blow on some ltr rear plastics and go hamm. I'm doing a yfz450 in a 250r but don't hate me cuz I never had a 250r motor.

However I've always wanted a zilla and they look great so it's a hard toss up.

What not put the motor in the fresh Zilla chassis? I'd much rather have a zilla than an R with the zilla motor but that's just me.

I’m guessing that’s a tri-z w the 500r motor. That pipe!:twisted: well done.

I haven’t given up on the fresh zilla, but seeing some of the tpc trikes gave me a crazy idea for putting the engine in a trike. I wanted to get opinions here to help steer my decision process.
