I am still really impressed and would love to build one.

What parts came off the GS650G? Was it just the swingarm, differential, and driveshaft? Or 'final drive' (or is that another term for differential??).
Also what did you use for a rear tire/rim and axle?

And are those rear shocks off the 650 as well? Thanks a lot!!!

By the way, I looked at those threads and you did an amazing job on the fenders and tank/frame cleaning up. Did you just paint them? They look as good/better than factory!!

Thanks for the comments,The final drive is from the gs650 and right and left section of the swingarm,I keep the SX part that goes to the frame and by chang they have the same diameter.The rear rim is from the SX,I cut 1 inch and weld it in the center to be able to center the wheel in the swingarm.The axle is a front axle from a 200es if I'm correct.The hub and backing plate are from a 250es.The drive shaft is a part of the gs650,and a part of the SX,Tire is 22x11-8.Shock are from a gs550e.Plastic are painted,the white section in the side panel are adhesive tape.The rear fender is a part of a broken 200es front fender.I built the complete bike,and after completly dismantle to sandblast everything
I'm very curious how much I could sell the whole setup on ebay,except for the upper shock mount,the swingarm and the seat/fender is a direct bolt on to any SX in 30 minutes.

Nice JoB!!!!!! you did your homework !!!!! thats,,,,, a cool bike....

Any plans for fitting a battery anywhere for electric start?

And when you cut 1", was that from the swingarm or around the center of rim? Looks like the middle piece of rim (from the GS650?) is welded there, and then I assume connected to the brake drum?

Looks real good. What type of paint did you use for tank/fenders, and did you clearcoat to make them shine?

[atc500x]

I have a battery under the seat to help light and indicators,I bought the sx with a bad starter and gear so I completly remove it to save weight,The battery could be installed in the trunk too.I cut 1 inch in the center of the rim,on the brake side to change the offset.The part welded to the rim that hold the spline for the final drive is a old sprocket,welded to the rim,and bolt the parts on it.The 250es hub is bolted in the stock holes of the SX rim.Paint is an enamel with 2 clear coat.Brake cable is the stock SX

Awsome! Ive always wanted one of those! The rich kid down the street had one when I was a kid. He never let me ride it.

too cool thanks for all the details!!!

were you talking about selling the setup to convert any 250sx to two wheels or selling your convertible bike/trike25sx?

[TheRealFatShady]

Amazing job, I'm going to start gathering parts! Any plans for a 25" rear tire or sticking with the 22?

I would prefer the 22 ,25 will be too big,clearance problem with the inner fender

That SX is awesome I been trying to figure out how to do it with the drive shaft,did you use the swing arm from a honda shadow or something like that.

[atc500x]

front section of the swingarm is the stock SX,the rear is from the gs650,with the gearbox,drive shaft is also the same,250sx and gs650 welded

[Jason125m]

it was better as a trike =(

[atc500x]

don't be worry,I have not use a good running trike to do it.The rear end was destroyed,fender was broken,and engine was smoking
