This trike started out as a bunch of parts 5 years ago when my friend Garrett built it. After countless rides and ice races he sold it to another one of our friends. He had it for about a month when the recoil broke and the hub stripped out so he parked it. I came along and bought it, then traded it for a set of rims and tires for my truck. The guy who l traded it to posted it to Craigslist a few months later when my friend nick bought it. He had it for one day before crashing it on the highway breaking both of his wrists. The police had it towed and the company who towed it wanted 500 to get it out 3 days later so nick decided to just leave it. A few months later me and him were talking when he told me that it had never been taken out if my name so I decided to go to the yard where it was stored. The guy behind the counter told me if I could show him a registration card that he would let me have it for 150. Surprisingly I still had it in my wallet, gave him the card and 150 and I loaded it up.
As for the build up I have the motor all set to go, no pics tonight I'll add some tomorrow, it is a stock 185 lower end with a 200s top end punched .20 over with a 12:1 piston. I am also in the process of modifying the frame to fit the fmf exhaust (pics below) I also have plans to build a whole new wiring harness. As for the rear axel it is out of a 1980 185, it's actually a bit wider then a stock 185s. The frame is also going to be power coated black. I'll keep you guys updated!! Thanks!
