Franks Three Wheeler ???

[razorbackatc]

Ok guys (and gals),
I am looking for pics of the Franks Three Wheeler. Anyone with these pics or info please post it. I am trying to gather a database for all RACING three wheelers...Selvys, Franks, Tricky Dicks, The Kawi 200R folks, Tiger, etc. I want to compose a small book of info and pics of the History of RACING THREE WHEELERS. I will be awesome when done. My wife has this program that we can make a book and have it published hard-back for about $75-$100 per book. This will be a long project, but you guys helping I can do it. Thanks in advance for the help.

I ment to say IT will be awesome when done. That's what happens when you don't read your post before you post it.

The original owner of my 250R package I bought last year had this Maico made for him out on the West coast. All I have is this snapshot of it that was buried in a pile of papers. He sold it some 15 years ago and has no idea where it may have gotten to. Pm me and I can forward his contact info if you want to do some research on it.

I hope that you understand that there was 3 wheeler racing way before there were suspension trikes. They were racing hardtails way before trikes like these were ever made. If you don't include them, then it isn't much of a body of information. Also, alot of the early racing trikes weren't made by the so called specialty companies. Many aftermarket frames found their way into racing. Nicholson especially. I hope you do alot more research.

Post up some shots of what you have Pat, from what I've seen, & what you told me, you've got some REAL gems!

[razorbackatc]

You're right. I will include some Nicholsons, 90 Racers, Maico, Yamaha's before they made TRI Z's. I want it to be as complete as it can be. This will be a project for this year. There's no way I can finish it all up in a couple weeks. This thing will be awesome when done.

I'm glad to hear you're putting in the older trikes too. Seems like alot of people don't hardly realize they were racing trikes before 1980. Alot of the old pics and stuff I have, I was asked to not post. Sorry guys, but I would not want to compromise the persons trust that I got them from. I'll try to dig out what little I have that is postable.
