    I think the tri z radiator shrouds may even be a close fit on that beast, very cool indeed. I wonder how it handles.

    Well the blaster is air cooled. No shrouds. Unless you are talking about another frame conversion. From what I seen it handles great.

    I wonder how much work it'd take to get them mounted though for better air flow.

    Lots of air cooled trikes have shrouds, but I was talking about looks, and I think some blue trimmed TRI-Z shrouds would complement that "TRI-B"nicely

    I'm not even sure how you'd go about mounting them though. You'd have to tap holes into the frame and then your angles might be off. Even though the z frame is similar. So it might work.

    If anything brackets would be the way to go but I'm not sure how it'd look. I mean tri-z shrouds are side mounted anyways. Not tank mounted like a 200x. I'd give it a try if it were mine. It would really set the look of a blaster/tri-z child.

    I put one in a trimoto 125 with a 175 front end, it was fast but with no rear suspension it wasn't the greatest, I think the blaster motor would be perfect in a 200x

    Friend of mine has acquired a very interesting set up. Let's see if i can get this right..

    YT175.. originally.

    YT tranny and cases. Blaster 57mm crank, Blaster 240 big bore kit, blaster flywheel/machined for pull start. YT175 bassani pipe. Blaster ignition.

    5 speed auto clutch 240cc Trimoto.


    I've been wanting to place a Blaster motor and swing arm in a YT175 for some time. With the motor and the swing arm bolting up to each other.. chain alignment, can't mess up!. The kicker to this, is the kicker. But if the flywheel can be machined(drilled and tapped) to accept a pull start, then why not? A 200x would be a better starting place.
    I just wanna go fast. If your not first, your last!!
