    very nice ,I'd also like to make a fat cat out of one of my trikes. how did you connect the drive shaft, and what wheel did you use. and was the suzuki hub the same width as the swing frame?
    Thanks Dan.

    Do you still have the fat cat. If so, how has it held up? Did the drive shaft work without any mods?

    No sorry no picture of the shaft.It's simply the gs and sx shaft welded together with a bushing over it.

    Is the brake assembly aluminum? How did you weld it to the cable mount you added in the rear? Looks like steel to aluminum?

    Nice build! I'm looking at doing the same. I have a question regarding the rear wheel. Did you just use/modify the rear driven hub assembly from the GS650? How'd this work with the SX rear drum brake?

    Basicaly,it's a modified 250sx rear Wheel (removed about 1 inch in the middle),a 250es front hub modified (so I used the 250es drum brake),the gs650 rear end drive on the Wheel,check picture tou can see how it's installed on the rear wheel
