that is pretty cool and with outlaws I bet it will go through dam near anything. I wonder what all it took to get that motor in there.
Id like to see some clean pics when you get a chance. the plastics and stickers look good from what I can see.

I was wondering if the 300 motor would fit in a ES or SX, cool find. clean that motor up with some eagleone wheel cleaner, I shinned mine up nice. get bottle that says etching. Looks like your missing motor mounts though.

search for it in the forums. A guy and his dad over seas I believe tried to do it with a 250sx and ran into some problems. Not sure if it ever worked out but if the 300 works in the big red then it must be even more of a powerhouse.

Looks more like an 86 with the grey seat, the side covers that have the split design I would like to kow if the plastic around the key is grey too. If so I would say you have an 86 not an 85.

nah the seats been redone on it so thats why it is grey, and the only problem was to get the motor in there was that were the 4x4 mounts up front, the braket had to be cut off so it would fit in the frame, and connecting the 300 harnes to the 250 harnes is the only other things really to be moded.

I think there outlaws. I bet you can't even turn it in the mud. lol

I bet they will, my 300 with 25 inch Vamps did pretty good in the mud, and without that extra front wheel I bet it would do great. I'm searching for an ES now. I've picked upa couple 4x4 quads and need a 3wheeler mudder.

Man, that thing is awesome.
Those rear tires look like they would chew you up and spit you out.
One thing though, I would fab some front engine mounts.

Here are the links to our conversion. I think your top engine mounting will break off fairly soon without those front mountings:cry:
Its running really well now, I will have to get some updated pics to post:TrikesOwn
