    The seat height ends up higher than an R or X. It's about the same height as the quad.

    Yes I built my own. Made my own swing arm and my own tripples. I'm still in the stage of tweeking things to get them the way I want it and it still has a hodge podge of colors going on from all the original colors of parts used. I didn't post any pictures of the build mostly because at the time there was a few people on the board that were being complete A holes to just about everyone and I didn't feel like dealing with any of them. I havn't seen any posts by them in a while so I think they may have been banned for a bit.

    Yz450 trike conversion

    Bob there is two different motorcycles there, and two different swing arms. What is what?

    Hang on worked it out, the first ones not bobs, and it's not a yz450, what is that air cooled bike?

    Sorry I didn't mean to offend you. My build basically is a 450 because the whole suspension is a yz450. I am using your ideas of vtx triples and a yfz swing arm so I thought I'd post it here because it's using your build ideas. Not trying to steal your thread.
