[atc500x]

Hi!

I'm new on this forum.I'm in quebec.I have a lot of parts for 83-85 200x.Tecate engine,250es.I have now a 1985 atc250sx and my last one is a atc500x,(modified 350x).I bought the 350x without engine,swingarm,rusted gas tank,broken fender,worn seat...I have rebuilt it to low cost....but a really nice result!!!I have used an engine a FT500 ascot,electric start,and installed kick start on it for backup(kickstart shaft,gear spring from an xl250)just remove the plug on the ascot cover and install the seal and it's done.The exhaust is a suzuki bandit 1200,6 inch shortened.I modified the frame.Not so bad a 300$ bike,restoration included.
I also install new 4-snow rear tires tonight
I have other picture of the trike!
I also check for tSorry for my english,not perfect,english is my second languagehe ignition pad for a 250sx,the one on my 500x isn't complete.

First of all :welcome: , Sweet X! How does she run? Have you compared it to any other bike?

[rally4x4racer]

holy cow..... I love the XXX - Does it feel like it needs more suspension? I looks great and I bet it runs like mad - WELCOME!!

[Bulldozer]

nice trike man and welcome to the place that trikes live

[oldskool83]

nice 350x...welcome and i think you'll fit right in...if you like customs a few of us are insane about these thing...just check my auto-x hybrid out haha.

[Bigbore]

Cool engine swap! I like your thinking, welcome to the site :welcome:

[bigpimpin]

so the FT500 is a 500cc?

[RapidRick]

Nice trike, search around there're a couple of other 500X around here on the board. Yours turned out very nice indeed.

[Yamada]

Nice conversion. Where do you live?

[atc500x]

I'm in St-albert,near victoriaville,Quebec Canada
The suspension feel good,the real 350x probably feel better for race,but for snow trail the 500 have a loooooot more torque,electric start.....paradise
I have not tested with other bike,but it's very fast
If a found another rolling frame I will install my spare Cr500 engine in it

[super90]

Looks really good! I bet it hauls around alot better than a stock 350 engine. And :welcome: ! Im sure any questions you need answered can be found here.

KOOOOL - I am glad to hear the extra weight didn't kill the suspension.
