    i would love to have a 500 trike, but my tools and shop are just not up to par to even attempt a decent conversion. would love to find someone that did the frame mods for people, im sure it would be quite pricey, but what does money matter when its going toward something you love.
    anyways killer job hondasawki!

    [QUOTE]ATC-Eric ...Corey Sprock is your man on lectrons, maybe try to track him down on Planettrike. /QUOTE]

    I've ordered a oversized billet float bowl from Mr Sprock!! thanks for the heads up!


    I hate to nit-pick
    then don't, those stickers were put on 10 years ago, at the time I had never seen an '86 t3 before. That is the way they are and that is the way they are staying.



    Thanks for the drool Eric!

    oscarmayer dang nice dude!!!!

    i've jsut got my 200e running so not it's time for bling!!!!
    Well post up some pics of that 200e! thanks for the props!! I appreciate it!

    BigGreenMachine That pipe is pure sex!
    Thanks I like it too!!

    OZQUAD44 Is the water outlet near the head faceing rearward for a reason?

    Can you undo the two bolts and flip it around so the outlet is facing forward. It would look a bit neater.

    Very nice machine you have there.
    The water outlet is that way on purpose, the angle that my engine sits in the frame, it would require a sharply bent Z hose at that fitting. It may be something I'll work on it the future, but is one of the last bugs I'll tackle.


    NewfieBish that bike is crazy man, looks really clean, id say that pipe sounds good!
    Thanks, the pipe sounds great! I need the engine to work a little harder, to get to full potential though.

    BigGreenMachine Search "Kx500 case saver" on ebay and get yourself an OXPARTS case saver. Don't want ruined cases over something as cheap as $30.
    I'm on it!

    Taiser After finally getting my 250r going, and having it almost yank the arms out of my socket when I floor it...I think you guys are certifiable for putting 500's in these things...BUT I LIKE IT, I LIKE IT!!!!
    The touqe of a 500 is some thing everyone should witness, its pretty cool!!

    Ryan. wow very nice build, i love that pipe and carb, is that a see through bowl?
    The carb is a lectron, and it is a plastic transparent float bowl. Thanks for the coments!

    Yeah its pretty fun!! CPI made the pipe, WWW.CPIRACING.COM, as far as the lectron goes, it runs extremely well, but the float bowl is running dry after about an 1/8th mile.

    The 86 t3 is pretty easy, I went over board for a better intake route.

    All in all she runs great, suspension feels amazing, brakes are fantastic. I have a few bugs to work out then I'll post some video. Thanks everyone!!

    Sorry, man. I didn't mean to sound like a dick. I just didn't know if you knew which way the decals go.

    That was amazing. Having done a few car drag races I know it takes a lot of power over the opponent to catch up like that. Those little bikes took of good but ran out of steam quick!

    BTW I have been an avid triker since 6th grade, that's probably the nicest tecate I have ever heard of. I have never seen a 86-7 tecate in person.
