The 4cyl Trikes

[Trikemaker]

What do you think guys of 4cyl trike...i want to fit a engine on my frame but i would like to have some opinions!!! :twisted:

[KASEY]

well its been done,,, basiclly a straight line machine ,,its tooo heavy to do much else!!!! kinda a novielty thing,,,,but thats all,,,, my brother built this several years ago,,,,, the only place it would beat my 250r is after i was at top speed then it would go by cause it was geared to go over 100,,,,,

hey, not a problem, what do you need to know??

[Trikemaker]

How time you put on it and how hard it was?

[4cylinders]

hey, this one went pretty fast, because I had all the parts. we put it together in about a month, couple hours a day. depends if you use the bike frame, or the trike frame. use the wire harness off the bike. the quads took longer, to alter the frame, and re-engineer some other parts.

hey 4 clyinders,did you use the bike frame and just put the front and rear end on ?

[4cylinders]

hey, kinda, but use the trike sub-frame for the seat, etc.

[Trikemaker]

I have a 600cc cbr engine and i put it into a atc 350X frame!!!

I think that would be enough performant!

[Trikemaker]

Hey 4cylinders...What engine you have in your atv??? :twisted:

[4cylinders]

hey, which one?? hehehe, all three are honda cb750's!!

[Trikemaker]

Very cool!!! in my 350X's ill put a CBR 600 liquid cooled engine...that will be more fitting than a free-air engine

Should be a pic below of a trike with a Honda CBX 6 cylinder in it the same as my 1980 motorcycle.

[trikerider2oo7]

that bike is awesome brook

[broook]

Sorry guys. Don`t be misled. Its not my trike. I am a member of the CBX owners Acc. and somebody posted the pic. to the list.

Don`t know if I would want to open it up, even if I had a chance.

By the way the CBX has SIX carburators.

[Trikemaker]

have you some project for a trike broook?

[broook]

For the last few years I have had it in my mind to build a road going trike out of my CBX. I am not getting any younger and i don`t know how much longer I will be able to hold up a heavy m/cycle. I think they use Ford rear ends in the Goldwings and Harley`s. Unfortunatly these projects cost a lot of money which is something I don`t have.
Good luck with your project. Keep us up to date.
