Only thing you need to know is this vehicle was the beast that triggered the banning of three wheeled atv's.

For all you Maniac’s out there with a death wish, I have decided to sell my ROAD LEGAL and registered Yamaha tri-z. This is One of a kind as I have Designed and built a differential swing-arm to try and this beast to corner (to goes where it pleases. You open the throttle and by god it goes.


hahahahahaahahahaahahahahahahah

it seems to resemble the swinger on Ange's tecate, Champion made it, it seems to have the same twin tubular design, cool find

I emailed the guy about it and he sent pics, said it is a true differential. I started a thread on it at 3wheeler.org

Hi to rexkarz,

Thanx for the emails regarding my one-off trike.

To all the people who don't beileve me, YES IT IS A DIFFERENTIAL and YES it works. take a look and see if you can spot the rear brake.

I have rode it for 6 months now and had no problems apart from people walking into things while watching me on the roads near where i live!!!

The local vehicle registering office (DMV for you in the us)near me was impressed when i took this machine down for them to inspect before issusing my numberplates

in the next few months, i will be taking moulds off all the plastic parts on the tri-z and making some kevlar and carbon fibre ones. then i will be ripping my machine to bit for a full overhaul and tune up .

If you want anymore info, i don't bite, but i am not intrested in people who are idiots.

Wow that is WILD! Are all the differential parts custom made or was anything borrowed from another application? Swingarm totally custom?

Carbonfiber fenders sound very interesting. I think you will be pretty popular here when you pull that off. :)
