It matches your bike parts wise... You can see the airbox in the pic, but wrong color frame... but every thing you have is on that bike, even the tires match..
well wouldn't that be killer...Are you going to ride it when your done?
its takign everythgin insid eme not to just rebuild the suspension and throw my kx500motor in it.
after allits what i origionaly bought it for and just prett ymuch sight unseen and still bought i t the calfab and other stuff wa sjust a turn a probably into a definitly.

Just a regular tecate frame.... jeez... It would probably be an upgrade to get a new frame....
its not just a regular tecate frame the entire subframe is completly diffrent than the stock tecate the seat latch/ fende rbrafe is completly diffrent and the cradle looks diffrent too

ok, buy another tecate frame then...
why not bring the trike back to it's former glory?

That's what I'd probably do. However, everyone keep in mind that the KX500 motor is almost a bolt in, no hacking of the frame is necessary, just modding the top motor mount from what I'm being told.
