'86 T3...Finally done....for now

[Maico]

This will be so sweet when finally completed. You should look into one of those green 250R fenders BigBore has on here. Yours just looked a little droopy in the picture. Might be me. The trike looks excellent BTW, not trying to dog on you. Will you be using the blue anonized forks or the "aluminum" finish forks?

No offense taken. Constructive critisism is always welcomed. That's how I learn new ideas.

It must be the angle, FFFire. The rear plastic is in excellent condition actually. It has the original rear fender brace that has never been bent or re-welded/modified.

Forks will be the "aluminum" finish. They're primarily my guinea pig forks. The end results will be Ohlins forks.

Let me know what you find out about those skids. Need one here.

If you were interested in a front skid try KX500 skidplates.

I noticed a few of those KX front skids on E-Bay. My guess is that if the KX500 motor swaps right in basicaly, then I'd bet the frame rails of the cradle would be very close if not exact.

Agreed. Kawi made everything pretty similar back then.

UPDATE: Here's the e-mail reply I just got from OMF.

Hey Roger,
Thanks for checking out our new website. Unfortunately we do not make a skid plate for the old Tecate 3. The stock mounts were just not strong enough to put a decent skid plate on. You might need to have somebody custom make you one.

Good luck,
Bones

Ahh that sucks man. Thats one piece I'd like to have just for peace of mind. I don't like spending extra on hard to find brake rotors..
