I believe this is groovy2044's trike, haven't heard anything on it yet. He bought it that way.

Is that a tri-z 250's? If so.. is it a bolt on ?

What other front ends work on this thing?

[Vealmonkey]

Too wide for a tri z, looks to be a ytm200 front end. And nothing fits the 175 without mods, mainly switching out the steering stem.

There looks to be so much space between the fender and the wheel though, only thing i could find that matched was the tri-z. Who ever had it didn't mind rewelding/choping things, it's got that odd ball swinger on it.

But you do know more about it that me.

Well your chain tension is really loose. Don't want that baby snapping and busting the cases. Take a few more pictures of the forks. They look like someone just modified the original forks.

Now that I see better picture, yt175 lower triple, ytm200 upper triple and ytm200 fork tubes. Not sure what to say about that setup?

[RubberSalt]

I thought it was something odd on the triples :-p What kind of pipe do you have on there?

I imagine someone spen denough time to add suspension + mod the front will have a pipe.
