    Sometimes we get snow in May.The front tire and rim are from a 230quadsprt I filed out the holes alittle to fit the 85 250r front hub.The rim is 10 inch.My wife and I are planning a trip to Merritt Island Florida at the end of the month.My younger brother was born in Lakeland Florida in 1966.

    a flat front tire is not going to do much of anything for you up front.

    Not really, titan fast trekker tires all have a flat profile. I have a set on a blaster in my garage, aired up or not air they are not rounded profile, all flat. It won't handle worth a darn. You need round tire up front, flats in rear.

    It will be fine.When I pump it up the center is higher than the outer edge.

    looking good man! not to steal the thread, but maybe some motivation to continue what you are doing, I have been getting mine ready for the NE EDT race series this year. I have the seat out right now for some mods. can't wait to run her. I was running a 350x last couple of seasons but felt it was time to upgrade for the races.

    Thanks for the pics your trike looks great.I like the white tank scoops and front fender.But I might go with dull red Maier front fender and tank scoops.I raced my 81 250r but it doesnt compair to the 85 .I would like to make it to one of the NE EDT races.

    I ran this tire on my 83 200r at the first race and it handles very well.
