« on: September 06, 2013, 02:09:28 AM »
Have been lurking on other forums, one of the threads referred to .org and registered. Built several hopped up 3 Wheelers since 1980. Started with a '80 ATC 110 bored and stroked to 205cc on Alcohol running Glamis Comp hill. My current favorite play toy is a hybrid ’86 TRX250R chassis with a XR650L engine installed and no its not stock 713 cc (101 x 89 ) just a fun dune toy. My signature lists past and present current toys. Recently retired and hope to share my knowledge with fellow addicts.

Welcome to site. How is the frame holding up on your 713cc? I know you don't have vibration problems, I was just wondering about the weight of the motor.

Sorry no early '80s pictures, wasn't into cameras, too expensive and money spent on go fast stuff. A friend gave me a couple pictures aka '90-91 at Oldsmobile hill, me on the 3wheel XR500, son on 350x, and a friend from Phoenix.

Funny you mention frame cracking. After having ridden it for a dozen years with a stock NX650 motor, finally completed my race in 05 and installed the frame broke at the down tube to left foot peg 2 years ago. During frame weld repair, modified foot peg mounts to allow kick start XR version as the electric starter couldn't be relied on to start, too much compression.

Love the ride man.  Different is good in my book.  And the pics are sweet!  Amazing how far technology has come.  Trikes sprouted a fourth wheel and buggies quadrupled suspension travel.  And horse power went through the roof on everything.
