    i welded it back up today.it separated that much from the front end coming down and the weight of the bike.i used a ratchet strap to pull it back together,with 2 of my buddies holding it together for me to tack it.they were all leavin for a trail ride so i didnt gusset it(no time)just ran a bead.it must have been cracked *Edited**Edited* and i didnt notice.im real hard on my bikes too so im not surprised it happened.i dont want to put another frame cause my hubs are welded so the rear ends alot harder to take off,also im lazy

    yup as long as your good at welding and you cleaned it before you welded it you should be ok. when they made these trikes i dont think they thought crazy people like us would be riding em. i hope your welds hold up or it will be one hell of a time getting it cleaned back up agai. ive bin there
    down to parts because i no longer have a place to ride trikes.

    GIT IT RAAAGGGGG !!!!

    thats the plan but i needed to go with the boys,you know how it is

    its funny cause 1 guys got a 650 rincon,the other a fourman 500,a 350 4x4 rancher and my buddy josh with the ol 200e,aside from josh,i kept up no prob with the big boys till we hit the big holes in the bog.after they were clean but i had about 20 lbs of mud on me.every time i go out now i want a big 4x4
