took the words right out of my mouth - I was looking - and you can see brakes at the far end of the axle on each side. He must have a split axle with that brake set up. - Really Trick!

i wish i knew lol. Can you imagine finding one of his 3 wheelers in a barn or something? i'd probablly crap myself:lol: If anyone finds one that has some goofy brakes, maybe split axle then it's probablly one of his.

The klt200 or 250 came with the split axle set up. You could either tighen the bolt and have the complete axle turning or loosen up a bolt and have the split axle. Came that way from the factory.

i know i paused it earlier at some point and i could see on the one side it looked like a brake rotor way out by the left rear tire.

Thats a cool vid!!! I remember reading about him back in the day, if I remember right he mounted the carb on an angle so the float whould be level to the ground while in a wheelie. I
