    My next build

    I so want to build one of these. All the nasty mud down here in south florida i could really use this rig. Anyone got any ideas on how they made the drivetrain work

    Ya those tires do look a bit much, probably cost more than the bike. i was thinking more like 25' gators or 27' mudlites. Then just gotta gear it way down and lift it way up. Im just wondering how they got that swingarm like that. Longer shock i would imagine?

    If you want to push that much rubber I would get a 250es big red and start with something you can build the motor up enough to handle pushing itself.

    Awesome.

    They got the drive train to work by running a chain from the front sprocket to the rear sprocket, lol.

    Looks like about a 60 tooth or more on the rear.

    You do not want 26 foot tires on any trike. or maybe you do what do I know? (just joking btw I know what you meant)
