Cool, any difference in handling???

**Darius1502** · 04-19-2005, 11:27 PM

Wow...thats how Honda should have done it....I mean what advantage is there to a wide front tire? You could argue in sand and snow its less likely to dig in...

Man you have som MIRON bars on that. Set them up Chicago style. Cool looking trike.

**pomona51** · 04-20-2005, 12:56 AM

The bike handles a lot better. I put in some progressive springs and they work great. Honda should had done it like this in the first place.

Toyota200x what are miron bars and what is chicago style.

WOW you did one heck of nice job!!! On ours my dad is going to do the 350x look with the white tank and blue seat. We should be getting our brake setup for the front anyday now...........

Thanks for all of the great feed back.

cool! that is an awsome mod. i never regretted doin that on mine!

hey pomona51 what all did you have to change to put the x front end on? did you have to exchage the tripples and everything or do you just have to replace the shocks

**pomona51** · 04-20-2005, 03:41 PM

You have to change the entire front end. Tripples, forks, break, etc... There is a lot of work involved but worth it. You also have to make a new steering stop. I put mine on the front of the goose neck.

The thing I hated the most about the whole conversion was the lower ball bearings and welding.

Good job Pamona...

**pomona51** · 04-20-2005, 07:27 PM

Thanks Max

Very nice mod. That's the way they should look!

**MO350X** · 04-20-2005, 09:25 PM

I've had the itch to do that to my 250SX since I got it but haven't pursued getting the parts.

By welding, you mean welding on the stops, right?

Bearings:
Did you use 200X or 250SX stem bearings?
Or were mods necessary to the stem to make them fit?

Thanks for your help.

**Maine_Triker** · 04-20-2005, 09:34 PM

The SX stem bearings will be fine, no mods needed. It's actually incredibly simple to just slide the new triples right into place.

Also you do need to weld new stoppers otherwise your tank will become your stopper!!! LOL
