Always finding new and exciting ways to not give a hoot in hell
Catch me if you can
I just realised, I dont think we have an actual "Show off your 500R" thread here. huh. Well heres a couple of mine, and Sykolincoln's that I've pretty much just finished building.
Mine (God, even I forget how sexy it is from time-to-time
Syko's borrowing my rear fenders (Pretty damn sexy now, will bewhen hes done dressing it up)

The pipe on Syko's is just nasty!Whenever I go the 500 route I'm going to use that same pipe... I love it.

Those are some slick looking rigs, but does anyone have a 500R with inverts? Hmmmm... Maybe....LOUIS MEILKE? Oh, and I got to ride itLemme tell you Lou's rig is incredibly snappy, & handles really nice (nice for a 5 minute rip around the yard!!), the rear shock is a little stiff, but all in all, man that thing is a monster & will kill you if you're not careful! I'm kinda REALLY glad the ground was so soft & the rears weren't hooking up too well(this was in a large back yard) or I'd have been shot off the trike! LOL. Louis is all modest about what he's created, but I think it's pretty frikkin' cool...

The inverts are nice but its just another bike. I've still got plenty of gremlins to work out but I'm proud to say its come a long way.
1st build:
2nd build:
3rd build:
vs the current build:
It's come a long way but it's really starting to handle awesome! Definitely worth the long road.

Hey Kasey, just wondering if you've ran against any of the Tecate 500's and how well they hold up. Do you beat them , is a toss up or do they get the best of you? Just curiuos.

Yes, Please do start a Show off you ATC500r, Please!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Anyway, I would like to do something like Lou's ATCR500R
No offense guys, They are all totally awsome! I just like the idea of using the frame that was intentionaly built for the bike, and work from there.
Anyway, Who am I to talk, I don't have one, Yet!

Someone needs to make a custom frame and use that. Wouldn't be too easy but it'd work better.

Trust me it's just as much if not MORE work than using a atc250r frame. Billy's working on doing atc frame conversions. I would talk to him if you really want a 500r.Yes, Please do start a Show off you ATC500r, Please!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

To be frank, just a decent built puma motor will run away from a 500 powered trike. To this day, I have never seen a fast 500 powered trike/quad. They are a good and fun motor, but they are not a race motor....they dont rev. Dont waste your time on building one with the thought of beating everybody, cause you will be disappointed.
