Tri-Shee Build Thread. A.K.A. Trish

[Saleenster]

fixed my typo........man that 87mph really ruffled some feathers.. My ??? would 300 ft times be faster on a well hooked up dirt strip than sand? I would think so with less loss on wheel spin? Just a thought. Could be wrong 67mph was the calculation with Snake and I's trikefest math...lol

Most 300' drag tracks are dirt...some use sand with the dirt. There are a few all sand tracks. A bike is faster in dirt. In general, to trap 87 mph in dirt, you would need around 150 rwhp in a full drag chassis. Heavier bikes would require more power to achieve the same mile per hour.

Love it Mr McKay icefest with that beast? can't wait to see it in person!

[zmpolaristech]

icefest with that beast?

why not!!!

[tecat-z]

If there's anybody out there who could throw that thing around, it would be the Senator... He's got amazing abilities on the ice! You have to realize this machine was built around him to feel comfortable. I checked this machine out in depth at TF, and was truly amazed at how well thought out executed it is. It's truly a one of a kind concept, built with near oem functionality. Super job senator!

my Drag Banshee which is a DM, wont trap 87 mph

That ain't dirt...lol.....cut a wheel off it and bring it to trikefest .lol.lol.......... dude it was a typo, sorry............and Mr. Mcain still has the fastest 3 wheel banshee on the planet in my eyes..... until it can be proven otherwise.

No need to cut the wheel off, i got that covered:



but a trike chassis has its limits, when a motor becomes faster then the chassis allows, you need to build something else. This one is also mine

No need to travel that far, some of the fastest 250R's on the planet reside in the 7 western states

Sand DOES breed fast bikes...

Very impressive build John.

I got to ride it guys, and I'll tell you what impressed me the most was how mild natured it was if you wanted it to be. Big power is awesome but big power hidden behind a nice time cruise-able machine is even better. You could literally cruise this machine in the trails all day. Very impressive.

cruise!? I think I would be wide open throttle on that thing all day lol

Just an update on Trish... I set her up for flat tracking at Ashtabula earlier this year, and thats how she has set since! I took 7th at Ashtabula, after a terrible quallifier and a back row start in the main. Then took her to South Arcade Speedway for the first ever ATV race on their new TT course...and WON the main! This weekend, we are off to Redbank PA to try for another TT win abourd Trish. Wish me luck boys!

Some pics of Trish and I on clay!







Sorry Jake, it's a good pic!

Drag vs Race the 7th doesn't really equate in performance. If you watched Raffa's GoPro of Ashtabula John was right behind him making the same passes midpack. Raffa had some good lines and was able to manage a slight lead out of the bowl. At the end of the straight that Ban-Z could close the gap just on motor. The Ban-Z looks quick in a crowd of 3wheelers while everyones flatting out, it just keeps pulling. It did seem a bit hard to handle as it would light the back tires quick. Condition weren't the best and seat time will lead way to traction control...but when that thing hooks-up man it's fast.
Goodluck, track looks great....can't wait to see how shee runs amungst the boyz.

[zmpolaristech]

Well, I took Trish to LL Raceway in Redbank Valley this past weekend for the NYTRO flat track event...AND WON my heat and the main.
So, thats 2 wins, in 3 races... I THINK I LIKE THIS THING!!!! Next TT race will be at Paradise raceway in Geneva NY on the 20th of this month, hopefully I can take home another trophey for Trish's wall!!
