    LOOK!!! Another newbie!!!

    Greetings and hallucinations!!! I am Sam. And, yes, I like green eggs and ham. (Wanted to go ahead and get that out of the way.) Anyways, I own two trikes... 1985 Honda 250ES "Big Red" and an '80ish all Honda "Frankenstein" bike. It's a 185s frame, 200s rear end, 200ATC fork, 200s engine and trans that has been bored out to a 250. Strange... but it RUNS!!! A certain powersports sales and service company here in Central Louisiana claims that my bike CANNOT exist. It is physically impossible to do what has been done and the contraption actually work. Well, I posted videos on youtube of me riding this lil bike at Louisiana Mudfest last year. Had a blast. Now I gotta put a ring kit in it. Still runs though. Just fogs for mosquitoes. Now... I want to know if anyone out there has an old 200X frame/ rolling chassis they might wish to part with. If so, holler at me. If not, holler at me anyway.

    I have an 86 200X frame and swingarm I'd part with, no way in hell I'm shipping it though.


    WELCOME! And post some links to this frankentrike!
    This is my trike. There are many like it but this one is mine. My trike is my best friend, and it is my life. I must master it as I must master myself. My trike without me is useless. Without my trike, I am useless. I must ride my trike true. My trike and I know that what counts is not the amount of miles we ride, but the time we ride together. My trike is human in it's own ways, therefore I will learn it as my brother. I will learn it's weaknesses, it's strengths, it's parts, and it's soul.

    Go on youtube and check out my channel... Wrenchhead09. The trike videos were filmed in Colfax, Louisiana at Louisiana Mudfest last year.
