It's pretty neat. I didnt read the description, what did they use for a front end?

looks like a custom triple setup with the stock fork legs and probly a custom axle and the wheel is probly from something smaller like a 90 or something...

That looks a lot like a Tricky Dick's trike. :wondering You know, the people who made the Cagiva's in Missouri.

i doubt that is a tricky dick's trike. You never know though. That caviga trike was pretty sweet. Does anyone know anyone selling that type of engine? If it can beat a stock/modified 250R, tecate, or tri-z...I want one! But why would they make a 400cc trike? Seems a bit pointless. Doesnt tricky dick's Son go on this site? Maybe we could ask him.

That cyclinder is HUGE! A 400 cc 2 stroke bike.. hmmm where is ventura county :) sounds like a california county.

Also look at the rear sproket!! you'll never be able to keep that thing on the ground. God it looks like a 60 tooth or something.

Back in the day (and it does look like it came from back in the day), 400cc Maico dirt bikes were very fast. Since it is described as a hybrid it was definitely built by someone. And yes, Ventura is in California, on the coast about an hour north of LA.
