That'll be nice and light so you don't have any trouble moving it around your garage, Edog-

**Brockey** · 10-09-2008, 10:11 PM

Just a stock 85/86 250r noting too fancy. Something I can ride. But its extremely hard to find one around here so I guess I may have to build one but it will be nothing fancy. I'll just buy parts from here and ebay to make a decent runner.

**NINJA** · 10-09-2008, 10:17 PM

My dream trike would be based off an 86 250R. The frame would be made of 4130 squaretube chromoly and have a removable aluminum subframe. The swingarm would be a plus 2" 450R with a dominator axle. The rear shock would be Ohlins and so would the inverted front forks. The wheels would be some ITP beadlocks anodized blue and a 10 in. front wheel non beadlock. The motor would be an ESR powervalve with a Yukon tranny and Hinson clutch. Pipe would be CT. I'd have a billet aluminum front hub with a common bolt pattern and the offset built into it so I could run a quad front wheel. My plastics would be the stock R plastics but in the old Competition Red (orange). So it would resemble the bikes from the early 80s. That's my dream and totally doable!

edog...you have a little too much titanium on titanium...which is going to cause it all to wear just like regular run of the mill steel. lol.

and all that carbon fiber is going to be a great big bunch of splinters when ya crash it.

I posted up a link about a year ago to LiquidMetal Coatings...check it out.

I saw this trike coming home from a ride in N.H. It caught my eye so I had to stop to ask the guy a couple of questions, It's got a TRI-Z swinger and a set of 350X tripples on it.. I asked the guy if he knew about this site but, he said that he didn't have a computer

**greythorn3** · 10-10-2008, 01:02 AM

**rasorroad250r** · 10-10-2008, 02:48 AM

Mine would be a KTM 380 2 stroke motor in a custom 6/4 titanium frame with gussets at key stress points. Oversized headtube to resist flex and house larger bearings. WP front forks and rear shock.long travel. 12 inches or so front and rear. linage set up similar to a 250R. desert tank, desert seat, extra wide footpegs. 4130 cromoly axle non tapered with thick splines removeable subframe, alloy air box. pro taper bars, scotts steering damper, stock 350x front wheel and tire. That's about it. Pretty much my ultimate trail, desert, dune trike.

**Tri-ZNate** · 10-10-2008, 05:08 AM

It would start life out as a registered and liscenced Husky TE 610.
Machine new tripples
Honda 450r swinger
LSR bearing carrier and Sprocket and brake hub
ITP rims all around
21" front tire
Honda 250r front and rear fenders
asV levers
pro taper bars
IMS pegs
Then go ride on the highway

**jims72** · 10-10-2008, 06:46 AM

I would build a stretched version of the 200x strapped with two gold wing motors or even two yamaha 1100's .Set that thing on 33x12.50's install a swiveling gun mount on the front fender attached to a browning fifty cal. Cammo the crap out of it and add a extra set of foot pegs so my wife could ride too!i am serious too all except the browning.or I would just go find the guy who stole my big red and strangle him till he turned blue!
