This is gonna be very cool to watch! I love the foot mounts. Jockey shift is sweet too. This thing is gonna be awesome!
Only problem I see is if you have to go down a hill and take a turn at the same time, that thing can tip over. Ive done it a few times on my 225dx. I mean.. If you keep on the throttle, and whip the rear end out, you can avoid it. I have had to put my foot down to keep it from going over a few times. So be careful.
Wow, wasn't excepting a linkage setup that heavy dusty, it shalt never break lol.
Just wondering, are you going to add some sort of strap for your feet, or do you think the high sides of the foot pegs will be enough? I guess it really depends how fast and hard your planning on riding.
Kind of an interesting idea. I'm sure your not the only person in a wheelchair that wants to ride atvs, so I bet there might be a small market for custom fitted kits to make atvs 100% hand controlled.
It looks cool now that it's done but it was a PAIN IN THE --- to get it figured out. No moving on to the carb and lighting. I also need a new front light plastic if anyone has one. also looking for a seat in any condition. I just need the pan. Is there anyone that can tell me the carb settings? I can get it back together, but im not sure what everythign needs to be set at (jets, air screws, etc).
I have a few seats let me check and make sure the pans are good. You can have one if you need one.
Rebuilding and riding trikes everyday and lovin every minute.

Anyone know how big of a head light i can get away with on this thing. The stock bulb is 45 / 45w so its 45 watts on the high and low beam. I going to retrofit a new headlight and im finding a lot of 45/65 options. can the stator and wiring handle 65 watts on this?
Thanks, Jason
If you want to put a non-standard head light on it, you could go LED, the 27W led lights on ebay work well and are really bright, I would suggest getting spot instead of flood though, the spot floods quite a lot as well lol. It might only be 27W but it puts out as much light as probably 100W light or more. Down side, no dim/bright setting, just on/off.
How about the rear shock? Any upgrades for that to make it ride a little better?
Well, i got it going last night. The carb needed a cleaning. it was pretty bad, but nothing like the mouse house i found in the air box! it was packed full of grass clippings. Went to get a new filter and they ordered the wrong part. so i just bought one for a grizzly (i think) and trimmed it down. worked great. Put a new plug in it too.I had to take 2 carbs and make one good one. Worked well except i guess i put the dirty low speed jet in it.
had to take it all back apart to get it to start. Runs great now! the shifter works well too. I kinda adds a little excitement when you are slamming throught the gears driving one handed. im looking into doing a headlight mod. Going to try and make this bulb fit the current light fixture.

i want to stay at or below 45watts because thats what the stocker is. Ill keep you posted on that. i also put an LED bulb in the tail light for a little added light. I might swap the wires around so the bulb lights up like it was in the brake light mode. Thats all for now... more next week.
