    Then you are definitely on the wrong board. That is just plain wrong to do to a tri-z.

    I think the frame is different than that of a quad, if there is anything comparable to the tri-z.

    PM TimSr about his Z quad. He has the bike you want to make. Also search the forums for a post by TRIZTUNES who posted about the company that still sells the complete conversion kits for trikes.

    3 to 4 wheel conversions in my opinion are ugly as hell. I havent seen any kits for a long time

    Don't spoil your Z man.......

    Buy a quad. It will work out cheaper even with the loss on the motor I reckon.

    If your Z goes as well as you say it does, I don't think you will have any trouble selling it.

    Plus a Z quad wont turn like you think it will. The frame wasn't designed for that and those 3-4 kits make it handle like *Edited**Edited**Edited**Edited*.

    Sell the Z.....buy a nice quad. With the money you are going to spend on a kit and putting it on you might as well buy a used quad of same power, mabey TRX250R? Quadzilla? Don't spoil a Z with that ugly shitty looking conversion!!!
