Shenanigans

[TomyJ]

My next project of 2, first one will be single seat, Honda CTX-700cc, auto trans. second will be side x side bucket seats with front car engine and auto trans with roll bars, In Ca. no need for helmets.

 

[TomyJ]

Maybe the first one will be more narrow for a 1 seater, engine behind seat with Honda 700ish with the auto trans? (wife trike) Maybe kit? Anyone want to buy the plans as I build it? Ohhh! a must will be M2-IFS from dealer. I hope to find a 13" Harley swing arm with 12" wide tire, 10" wide tread or as I look at it same size as 2-5" street tires? "TRACTION".

 

[LarryA]

gonna be a wild ride on that one....like it!

 

[TomyJ]

I will be changing the plastic model soon (heat wave) One bucket seat and rear engine. I will need help designing a reverse drive?


You can see this one has 2 widths, I will make only the smaller one 24" same as the seat, maybe a jump seat behind me (wife is skinny).

 

[TomyJ]

OK, Took awhile but now the trike is a single seat with a jump seat.



The scale is 1x4, model is 36" long and 6" wide.

 

[TomyJ]

Model frame is 9" wide in the middle, 36" long and outside of tires 17" wide. This frame will be easier to make than RebelRouser.







And I will be guessing the engine to be 750cc-1kcc? I will be still be looking for reverse gear, can it be built into the jack shaft? AND I broke up the 2 seat model for a look at 1 seat, scale is 1/4, model is 36" long and 6" wide. What I have in mind here will be a 700+cc,

air cooled, bucket seat from car shortened, IFS mustang2 type with rack and pinion steering and held from local dealer (tci).

I am also thinking of windshield roll bar combo in the seating area, here in Ca. we have a DMV law for 3 wheelers, "enclosed" no helmet,

what does enclosed mean? Body? I want this frame to be seen, so I am thinking medium blue, and in the "windows" I will install baby blue, see threw plastic mounted

towards the inside. ANY MORE IDEAS PLEASE FEEL FREE...

 

[TomyJ]

Maybe?

Maybe that one is for off road?

 

[TomyJ]

How about two of these up front? I could see through them!

With tire about 36" tall, WOOOW!

 

[TomyJ]

Maybe...



Dual Yamaha R1 coil overs with pushrod style bell cranks aligned on the upper rails for that really cool look?

 

[TomyJ]

More accessories...



Paddle shifting?



How cool would this be, Ohhhhhhhhhh-Yaaaaaaaa!

 

[TomyJ]

Jackshaft will be a must.



Bearings...

 

[TomyJ]

I love these motorcycle fenders, if only I can make them work?

 

[TomyJ]

Thank You Fuzzman, My heart is in this design and I just can't wait to start the build, so When I have RebelRouser rolling (pre engine) it will go up for sale, let someone else pick the color and put a bigger engine in it, the hard work will be done the rest should be just bolt on's? I live for making these ideas work...

 

[TomyJ]

OK, Used the smaller swing arm on RebelRouser, so this one got sand blasted and some color so it wont rust...







Swap meet finds, After RebelRouser is sold I will start on this frame...

 

[TomyJ]

Ohhh, This one will be getting me in trouble, Shenanigansssssss.

 

[Burnerboy]

Don't stop now! This is getting very interesting! Looking forward to more designs being posted...

PaddleShifting…







Ohhh Ya!!! I will be making something like this with 1-1 center steering, manual, cables, Now can you see why I want to get RebelRouser rolling and sold...

 

[TomyJ]

Maybe? Bagged VW...

 

[TomyJ]

Paddle Shifting cables



This is where the cable(s) will come from, wow I can not believe up to 7/8 threads? I really need to start on this trike but as many of you already know I have to many irons in the fire now...:gah:

 

[TomyJ]

Paddle Shifting

I have this in storage and it should be a good start...:clapping:​

 

[TomyJ]

Trying to show you guys more of the frame design.







There will be more bracing along the sides and because of their strength I will add (light/medium blue) solid Plexiglas windows between them so I can see through yet still have the look of a body and of course a roll cage from the windshield frame to the rear. ( I just might do this next? ) :clapping:

 

[TomyJ]

IFS mustang2







These are where I will get the final dimensions for my frame design, I will start with the control arms and make them adjustable not with the upper arm cross piece (not good looking)...

 

[TomyJ]

Control Arms - upper adjustable





Adjustable plus caster spacers...

I really like looking over your projects. It is like I see or learn something new each time I read them. Thank you for sharing your work and ideas.

eReverseTrike



-low center of gravity, electric? I see: 30"+ spoke wheels up front for see through, 30" x 12"w rear rubber, Canopy? To hot in the summer time and foggy in the winter time but looks bad ass, can change length for engine behind driver or front engine between legs? If you pull "Shenanigans" in this one, well! talk about rubber necks!!!
