Sportvette... KXT Pics

[Jeb]

Here's a couple of my KXT pics. With screen number plate and with headlight. :)

[twgranger]

Out of the 3 witch one do you like the best?

[Jeb]

I prefer the KXT.

The Z runs great, It's handling IN MY OPINION is just not quite on par with KXT. I think it handles allot better the way I have it set up than stock. I do want a smaller front tire.

The 85 R is an on going project and doesnt run....yet! :D

On kind of funny note, these pics were taken Sunday, and it was bright and sunny. The day before, there was about 3" of snow on the ground! :D

[Jeb]

Thanks for the compliments!

"Wut" that tire on the Z is is the stock 25" dunlop. Someday, I want to switch to the 86 23" dunlop. Look at the difference in height compared to the R & KXT.

The tires on the back of the R are 18x11-9 Fast Trekkers. I don't know if you can get them anymore. The Z has 18x11-8 Turf Tamers on it and they are a little taller then the R's 18s.

I got it off ebay back in late '01 or early '02. Its a UFO made for the Z. It has a tab on top of the frame where you can mount your over heat light.

those tires on the R are straight P.I.M.P.

That is plain awesome Jeb! I love how you have all three of the 2 stroke 250's. They all look great too! LOL, You have one of the best, original collections!

[BigGreenMachine]

Awsome trio Jeb!!! I like the Z the most but the R is close, IMO. Now all you need are the two sport four-stokes!!
I can't believe you had snow the day before, its so summer like in the pictures. We're supposed to have 40cm with 110kph winds tomorrow, on top of the 3 foot we already have.

Jeb, where did ya get the green dust covers on the forks?

[trailboss]

dude you must be in trike heaven!!!! can you tell me what the sizes are of the rear rims and tires on the r and where i can get some? do you ride in the snow? i'm in ottawa canada and we are up to our butts in it and i love to ride in it!! :twisted:

[kilabeez0]

i just cant believe how thin the sidewall is on the R's tires

[trailboss]

i love how they are a flat track with a wicked tread!!!

[trailboss]

if you studed them, they would be great for ice :)

[motoman1012002]

Sweet bikes jeb im goin to build a 2 sroke this summer from ground up so I can build it the way i want it. I dotn know if i want a 250r or tecate

[350Xccelerator]

Motoman you should probably go with a 250r since parts are alot easier to find than those for the T3 it would be alot easier and less headaches. Awesome trikes Jeb!!

[TeCaTe_MaN]

parts are easier to find because of people like you..if more people had KXT's there would probrably be a whole lot more stuff out there just like the R's :?

[short4stuff]

is it just me or is the 8 on the Z starting to peel on the top corner ???


Nice trikes. I love those tires on the R

[Jeb]

Thanks again for the compliments guys!


Now all you need are the two sport four-stokes!!

I'm about all "triked" out. :shock: No more trikes for me until I breath life into that 250R again. Unless I find one local, in good condition and dirt cheap. I should have brought the ATC70 out too.


I can't believe you had snow the day before, its so summer like in the pictures.

Yes, it's been pretty nice around here all week. :D


Jeb, where did ya get the green dust covers on the forks?

They were provided to me by the miracle of ebay a couple years ago. :D



can you tell me what the sizes are of the rear rims and tires on the r and where i can get some? do you ride in the snow?

Again, those tires are Dico Fast Trekkers. The rims are stock R rear rims as far as I can tell. Tire size is 18x11-9. Titan makes the Trekker line these days and I don't think you can get the 18x11-9 anymore. You can get 18x11-10 and some aftermarket 10" rims. Those Trekkers on my R are pretty worn. I'd love to have a new set but I think we're S.O.L. there.
We dont get much snow down here so it's very rare to get to ride in the snow. I didn't get to ride Saturday when it snowed.


...you should probably go with a 250r since parts are alot easier to find than those for the T3

I hate to admit it, but I have to agree. I've learned this recently thanks to my R. Parts are everywhere. New OEM, Used OEM, and aftermarket. And I've gotten parts for pennies compared to what they might go for on the KXT.



is it just me or is the 8 on the Z starting to peel on the top corner ???

:shock: :D :oops: It looks that way, but those numbers cannot peel. They are thick, hard plastic with posts on the back. They are old school numbers designed for 3-wheeler vented screen plates. You press the posts through the screen mesh and self threading plastic nuts are threaded on the posts to hold them on. You literally bolt them on instead of stick them on. You'll never get sticker numbers to stick to the screen mesh.

[sportvette]

thanks for posting the pictures Jeb. You have some nice trikes.

thanks,
mark

[250SX_rider]

I really like your trikes...they all seem to be in mint condition...especially the KXT 8) get your R done soon!! :)

[jdulac]

Which is your favorite? I like the R. But i've always been a honda man.

[Jeb]

Like I said earlier in an earlier reply, I prefer the KXT.

I ride the Z and KXT. Well most of the time I ride the KXT and my brother rides the Z. I try to take good care of them. They are fairly nice rides but not mint! I'm kind of glad they are not mint as I would never get to ride them.

Thanks guys! :D
