if you have a welder, or are good at fabricating brackets, i dont see why you would not be able too, i think the gear and chain for trikes are a little wider so you may need a new sprocket for your engine,

have put a honda atc125 in a xr50. only thing you need to do it make a tab and file the sprocket to fit a 428 chain :)
