TRI-Z 450 back under the knife YTZ450

[Derrick Adams]

I really wanted to make the thing LOUD for this season, as this will probably be the last one that I really focus on trike racing. For next year i'll be switching up the body/frame colors again. I'm thinking white plastics. I'm also getting serious about lightening the thing up some by shaving the frame, adding aluminum triples, aluminum oil tank, etc.

Looks KILLER!, Derrick.

I only wish i lived beside Jason and yourself, would love to go on a trail with you
guys, and with some slight modification i'm sure my bike could rip it on the MX track.

Excellent build dude.

Thanks bud. Mines no where as nice as yours, but it will be someday. When I retire this bike, its getting fully refurbished, chromed, and powdered. It will find a permanant home on a stand in my living room surrounded by all the trophys it's won me.

those things can be insane loud.....
my buddy has a 450R with some headwork, etc. etc. running a custom silencer.....holy crap it sounds like shotguns when its iding.

i was ripping down the road on my KX80, and that thing is pretty loud. he came ripping by me, and i couldnt hear my bike at all, and the noise from his quad hurt my head!

I believe he meant "loud" as in like a Hawaiian shirt.

This trike is sick!!!! I'm definately going to do something like this in the next few years. I'm just finishing up my 86 Tecate 500 project. And I thought mine was trick! What did you use for triples? and forks? and the headset? So many questions! What are those radiator shrouds? How can I downsize pics of my Tecate so I can make it my profile pic?
