Vealmoney have any pictures of them suspension 70s?

Not on digital right now, my PK frame was posted on glamisdunes and there is another member on here that has the A-Plus frame suspension. The PK just has an anodized chromemoly frame which is cool, but the Aplus frame is just painted black, not too cool. My PK frame is just like the one for the trike "mini me" on glamis dunes. What is cool about the Aplus frame is, the name Aplus is etched into the top triple tree. The Aplus frame has 4 seperate engine mounts that branch off from a central bent tube where the PK frame has 2 bent plates with 2 holes in each plate that come off the central bent frame. Both frames are longer than a stock atc 70, so they could accomodate longer engines, strokers if you would use that term. But I found out the hard way that an atc110 engine that has the high-lo gearbox hits the swingarm on both models. You would either have to use aftermarket engines or some type of 90cc engine like the st90(I think that is the engine without the hi-lo box). Howdy has that magazine project 90 that doesn't have the hi-lo box, but I don't know how it originated, whether it was cut off somehow or they used another set of cases to start with. The 90's could be stroked and bored out past 125ccs', I heard somewhere around 185ccs'. I also know greenhuman from australia has modified 200x engines to fit into an atc70 frame and that would be a dream engine for the PK frame! The only drawback is the rear brake. I have been hoping that someone might come up with a disc brake that would fit an atc70, and I remember somebody on the board mentioning his friend had come up with something of a disc brake for a 70. I know they had them for the other trikes aftermarket wise. I've just never seen one in person to even know where to start to engineer one.

At the Glamis 70 section look under "#73 Jc" subject number and the first picture you see is of my PK frame as it was listed on ebay. I think the other board member that has the Aplus frame is HRC200x, and I think the Aplus 70 is his avatar. Oh, I was also the high bidder on your 70/90 on ebay, but nobody bid against me and it only went up into the $300 dollar range. I picked up the Aplus 70 from a member in Tennessee and I will have to check, but I think he had pictures posted on here when he had it for sale. I drove down to get it and bring it back to MD, and made a weeks' vacation in Nashville to pick it up. I also have a blue 83 atc70 with less than cherry plastic, but a nice tank, which I bought the dratv blue fenders for that don't match, which I might use on one of the suspension 70's. I'm always keeping an eye out for original honda blue fenders for it, wishful thinking, eh?

pretty cool idea . But Arent NYPD patrol cars blue and white??? i'm not trying to be mean or anything but i know there are blue plastics for the 70 and you could have saved your red plastics. either way your idea is cool and original and im sure once you add the lights and all it will be hot.

I looked around on the net and found baby blue nypd cars white nypd cars and a picture of a black swat truck that was nypd i figured since nypd dosent have a "police trike" i could pretty much go any route i wanted to,my orginal idea was going to be a nypd police parks and recreation trike so i thought the black would fit the theme.

The original red plastics were scratched up and im trying to build this one cheap my last 70 i bought 140 bucks wortha plastic from dratv had the bike all cherry mint and wounldnt ride the damn thing outta fear of messing up all my work ,i wanna be able to ride this lil 70 and not worry to much about it.

Not a nit pick by anymeans, because I think the trike looks cool - but - it looks to me like those forks are bent too far back?. Maybe at the stem?. I also agree with Gvmc45 - lights and a siren would be trick. Heres a pic of mine.

look pretty straight to me but even if they were bent this is a budget build lol so it dont matter i just wanted to build a beater 70 to ride around the house and play in the snow on when it starts snowing again

I like it! I think it would be cool if you could find a couple of real NYPD badges (or good knock offs) and incorperate them in to the design some how. Unique idea, keep up the good work.
