    Nice job for sure but I must ask what was Kawasaki thinking? I mean I understand the reasoning for the headlight by why the "Big red" type front fender. Kills the sporty look of it IMO.

    I think it looks great!!!! and the more I look at the styling of the 85 T3 it grows more on me everyday
    Wikipedia "All Terrain Vehicle" Definition excerpt
    Other smaller or lesser known companies, such as Tiger ATV, Franks, and Cagiva, produced racing three wheelers, but in much smaller numbers. Few of these machines are known to exist today and are highly sought by collectors.

    I understand. Some people cant understand why someone would put performance parts on a utility. It takes a "unique" person to understand. And I like the quote in your signature. Sums it up well.

    Blazer, I just went thorugh the buykawasaki website and couldn't find the chain guide that looks like yours Do you have a closer pic of it? Or know the part number? I have the factory steel sprocket gaurd but it looks nothing like yous. Maybe I am just nuts.

    Are you talking about the case saver-guard. I think mines off a KX.

    Thanks again guys for the complements, I think it came out pretty good, I'm looking to build a big bore motor for it this summer before the ORG ride in Florence, we'll see how that goes.

    I am looking at the polished/chrome one on the left hand side of your swinger. Just about straight down from the silencer. I got that 85 tecate off of 250rsteve and I am thinking of going with the sprock racing 330 kit if I can bring myself to spen the coin on it. Good news is that the tecate has an aftermarket pipe and a extended axle on it. Rest of it trashed though. Someone painted it CAMO don't know what the heck they were thinking.

    cool deal, It really needed one from the factory I think. I may just have to do that to my factory swinger. Oh, do you want to sell your green maier low pros?

    Beautiful Tecate Blazer! I like the low-profile rear fenders much better in shiny finish.
