Man, I have a street legal XR 600 and I'm wondering if I can convert it to 3 wheels and still have it legal here in PA.... hmmm..... Oh yeah, and mine's an '88, so only 1 carb cable to pull! Wonder if a 450r swinger would squeeze in there?

I could see if it is street legal already as long as you put street tires it would still be good. As for the 450r rear i dont know if it would fit at all. I do know shaving a 1/8 inch off each side of a 200x swing arm pivot and inside spacer makes it fit. Had to fab mounts for the pro link.

I was going for a 350x look a like, so I had to lower my seat, doing that, the frame that holds the seat is at the same height as the airbox. I had to make a custom air box, which works rather well, at least it hasn't sucked in any water or dirt yet, lol.
I started out with a twist throttle, I couldn't get comfortable with it, so I went back to the thumb throttle. A good friend of mine is restoring a 600x, he has released the spring a half a turn on the main carb, says it works great with less tension, hopefully I can get out to the garage today to try it out.

Got her running on saturday ran allover the yard and in the woods for a bit. no fun with no brakes. Sprocket setup seems fine so far. Only issue i had with the positioning of the seat and rear sub frame is the pressure i was placing on the palm of my hands and that twisty has to go. I was able to swing it around fine i. The tight trails. Find out more when i get some brakes.
What cable do i need to use to get a thumb throttle working?

I used the xr pull cable, had to make a special bolt to take up the slack on the cable, but it works great!
