    Sure is a good runner, It took about 8 sprockets & alot of time to get the gear ratio rite, Its geared real low to alow the clutch to shift, like it did on the sled, I race the same motor on the ice in the sled. My buddy has a 780 Mach-Z, & in 500' he beats my sled by 10'. The SRX is about half the weight, & the big sled spins alot, but the old girl runs cosistantly 10' behind the big dog. The hard part will be getting her hooked in the trike. But the way these clutches work is amazing. The secondary clutch shifts quicker when the wheels spin. Hope to have everything SWEET by trikefest 06. Yes I will get some better pictures soon. If you know more about computers than I do, you can re-size it, but it took me forever to even get that little one on the site.

    Holy mackeral! Not prone to wheelie with the weight over the back like that? Thats pretty sweet. You might try using a TRX250R to combat that seat and tank gap, they are a little bit longer in length then the ATC ones.

    With the clutch directly in the way on the left side, you have to lean way up anyway. The motor helps also as a counter weight, I have to modifi the water hose on the heads, if you look close its keeping me from lowering the front down more. I'll work on er somemore, get it snuggled down low. I think no matter what i do its gunna want to wheelie, but a wheelie bar has crossed my mind. After watching those guys at the drags at haspin I see good & bad points. I just don't know about a wheelie bar on 3-wheels, That would totally make it a quad. I'll just have to let the front wheel hover the whole strip.

    Sweet! I've talked about it too before...glad to see you took it to the next level. I bet it was pretty hard to get the gearing right. I was working on putting a sled engine in a go-cart (Old 340 fan) but the project got "set-aside" because of clutch issues... Hope it works out good for you and you can win some races with it!
