    Three wheeler guys probably have the biggest balls out of all the ATV/Motorcycle riders. You just have to be a little twisted to ride them, and you have to be a great rider to do so.

    ok i must be using the wrong terms or words in my searches because im not finding anyhting..

    i think buildin a 2 stroke power valve trike would be great!! since i cant get my buddy to come off that tecate he wants to make into a go cart, and no 200x rollers locally... but early- mid 90s dirt bikes are cheap enough..

    I work at a custom fabrication shop and I've been welding/fabricating since 1992. I'd be very interested in making you some items for your project, sounds cool!

    P.S. I'm an hour and a half away.

    Hi all. I'm a new guy here. Been thinking of doing this very thing with a little KX60. I'm mostly curious where you get the wider triple clamps since the atc70s just flare out. Everything else is a cinch...
