Today was chain guide day. Started with a nice simple design, but then it occurred to me that the gearing might have to be changed. The guide is from a Tri-Z.
So this was revision two. Has three positions.
Tacked it on, but I need to route the chain through it before I weld.

Hope that guide lasts. I busted a new own banshee one I. Half 15 miles into a ride. Sproket guards after that on everything.

Sand only, not expecting to bounce it off any rocks.
The beginnings of an air intake.
The stepped rad hose is off a John Deere. May need a JD decal for the fenders.

Check this guys 450 out https://www.yooying.com/220trikes
I like to be able to see how he dealt with a couple issues I have pending. I see his rear fenders are set back about 2" more than mine and that he added some plastic between the fenders and the tank. I think it looks great.

There is a Company from the Great White North BRC Racing making a bolt in 5hundy 2stroke.
Electric, Conterbalanced, Power-valved drops in certain year frames of current used 2stroke KTM's.
When I saw the conversion and test ride...Made me think a Orange Hybrid would be an awesome trike.
Like the progress, got the eyes on this one, thanks for sharing.

Got the swinger back Saturday and installed all the bearings. Pivotbolt went through both side with one finger push. Pretty thrilled about that considering how much torch and rag work was needed after final welding.
Wires, Hoses, & Digital Wizardry.

Looking good!

Thanks guys, I bolted the swinger on for real today, pics when my phone charges,
Did any of you visit this site Tri-Z posted? This company is converting 300cc KTM two strokes into 500cc torque monsters among other things. Very high end stuff.

Bolted the swing-arm on and then the shock with no spring to check clearances through the stroke. Look like everything clears by a whisker, but I think if I lower the rear anymore the shock reservoir will rub the air box. No matter, it needs to be raised from where it is now by about 1 to 1.5 inches, but I’ll wait till the forks are lowered before making any adjustments.
Rough measurements show 10” of ground clearance and a 32” seat height. About 1” higher than my Tri-Z seat and 1/2” less ground clearance. Wheel base is 58” and the width is 48.5” at the moment.
