It really does sit nice, I sat on it a couple of weeks ago and the only thing I could think of was it was alittle high in the front but I gave Randy a parts 110 so he now has a spare frame to play with for a rear suspension idea. lol

I hate to be the one guy that dislikes something. I gotta say though. I don't like it. To me it's too chopper-ish. Maybe too sporty-ish. I think as far as suspending the smaller trikes. I like the 185s/200s front end better.
I however did my conversion and never got to ride it before my frame cracked in half.
Let the hating begin!

I've been looking to do this on my 185, was it a direct swap or did you have to do custom fab work? Maybe you could do a write up....
Nope. I just rolled it out of the unit for a pic.Originally Posted by Gripit'n'ripit:1173651
I was going to do the 185s front and had all the stuff on my work bench and ya know ,I'm really
glad I went the extra mile on this change over...Its never been done ! by doing this I found all
the X's ,R's, Sx. all had one thing in common and that's the STEM base.......What a deal, & the parts
are really available cheep! To lose the chopper-ish look you can use the 1st gen R ,big tire,keep the forks back close
to the engine head. your way is a bolt in/cool with a big tire!! the way it is right now isn't short-ish Hahaha............Its all fun to build
