I would buy a kit for a 450R or something! Someone should definitely make one.

You guys that want to build this stuff pretty much just have to get friendly with your local machine shops. All of us that have built custom stuff have had to do the same thing. There pretty much isn't any limits to what can be built, but there aren't really off-the-shelf parts available to do much of anything in this line of customizing.
i figured that much
.. just didnt know if anyone/ someone figured out what ' off the shelf parts can be used to make a 'safe machine'
i know aguy that works at amachine shop.. gotta find out if he is able to make some parts.. gotta guy lined up for the swingarm,
if all else fails.. ( dont flame me for this) i will find a 200x roller and stuff a 2 stroke in it.. 400-500cc

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.

400-500 in a 200x? little to big buddy! to small of a chassis in my op.. 200x is good for a 125 or a 200 but 500 is way to monsterous! plus need room for rads and monster pipe....etc etc... in the end you would have been better off making a new trike.
I Found this photo a few months ago and it's what got me thinking about my kx60 conversion. I think this conversion in bangin'
Excellent work on this and I wouldn't be surprised if you've all seen this photo before???
Its not as hard as some people may think it is. Its all about planning ahead to fidgure out what is going to fit or may fit. Lots of buying and testing/trying new things. I can tell you that you can make a trx450r swingarm fit about anything, just have to fine tune on linkage. Once you get a roller then the hard part is done. As far a triples go jason hall has a really really nice setup that you might talk to him about(dont know if hell be able to modify it for a cr frame or not without the frame there).
Just start it and go from there. Youll find all kinds of help around here and around your town when you start talking to people.
