I think some sort of sticked thread needs to be put up for this as more and more of us are converting new machine parts to fit our old and worn out parts on our trikes

for instance this thread pit bike brakes made to work

this one as well 450R swingarm on trikes

http://www.3wheelerworldforums.com/showthread.php?t=81798&highlight=450R+swingarm


these for the most part are easy alternatives to trying to get NOS or rebuilt stock parts for our machines, but at times without the proper knowledge or direction some may never even know about it.


just thought I would put this out there.

Probably the most important thread IMHO. People pay "vintage" prices for garbage they could buy new for pennies. Also thanks for all the advice syco. Gained alot of knowledge on these boards.

for my friends 83 atc250r we used the caliper from the rear of a kx80/85 any year. it fits perfectly no mods to the rear 250r caliper bracket and it works on the front also for these and old style 200x's.
