It's amazing how hard an organization will try to shut down a hard working business that's trying to offer legit products to put smiles on people's faces. The people spreading rumors and hate online are soft and no better than the crooks trying to shut you down. Happy to have worked with you guys and I have your back 🤘👊
I don't like big wheels but love to watch People ride them that know how to ride them. I've been riding a tuiler my whole life. So I like to put my foot down not good on a 3 Wheeler, but I respect what this guy's doing for sure.
Great video Bill! I ride a street legal BVC trike. Friggin blast on the road! It’s an absolute dream come true 😃 glad you guys won, I hope to see more trikes on the road 😎
The country has become so pathetic. It’s crazy to me how many people just love big government and its never ending overreach to strip its citizens of their freedoms.
They are just like all the 3 letter agencies. Unconstitutional if you ask me. More government overreach. Shouldnt be regulating what anyone does with personal property. My understanding is that they were never actuallly banned to begin with. It was more of an agreement that the manufacturers would stop.
I fully support you man! I grew up riding 3 wheelers here in the deserts of SoCal. Raised by a big family of 3 wheeler riders, I even had my first crash on one while in my mom's belly 😂. It's my dream to one day own a modern trike with your parts - the ultimate desert toy in my opinion! CHEERS !!!
I’m 64 now, and I’ve owned my 1985 Yamaha Tri-Z 250 since I bought it new at Kearney Mesa Yamaha here in San Diego California. When the ruling came out that 3 Wheel ATC’s became illegal to manufacture and sell and they were talking about outlawing even being able to own or ride one on public lands I was outraged to say the least . Thankfully that law never came to pass, and all I can say is I wondered what happened as I followed your builds on TH-cam ( I’m not much of a Facebook fan myself) . So sorry you’re being put through all this shit . The Consumer safety protection commission can suck the big one as far as I’m concerned. Sure there’s idiots out there that can be killed just by waking up in morning and being themselves, but then the rest of the world gets dragged down with them. I say “ Let nature take out the weak “ or in this case maybe stupid , and leave the strong to survive. I rode my 3-wheeler nearly 40 years ALL OVER out here in California sand dunes and only had 2 or 3 major get-offs and thankfully survived each & every one . Are they dangerous??? Sure…. But no more so than all these scooters, and bicycles & skateboards & surfboards & boats & cars & aircraft,etc. We choose daily what we do , and most of us realize there’s risk in EVERYTHING. Just remember that if you chose something beyond your skill set or common sense , that you , & ONLY YOU are responsible for that decision. If you’re unable to control or ride or operate WHATEVER it is that injured you , well maybe you shouldn’t have gotten involved with it in the first place . I hope BVC TRIKES survives & prospers & grows as it seems that the “ Little guys “ get attacked more than huge companies because they are easily intimidated or easier to take down . Glad you stood your ground & fought back and are still doing so . C-ya 😎👍
Nice! 50 something here in So Cal too. Sweet bike! Loved my 86 250r and still miss it (always more of a 2 wheel guy). Miss those days of Tri Z, 250r and Tecate battles. Ripping Whitewater area and Glamis. Well said and sounds like that Z is your keeper! 👍
I think I'll take my BVC 450RL trike out for a rip today in support of you guys and the good news you are still offering trike parts. My build gets complements everytime someone sees it when I'm out. I tell them what it is and about BVC, then we share old three wheeler stories.
All of you at your shop are saints! I remember helping my father who was a Honda mechanic in the 80's uncrate and final assemble brand new three wheelers before the sad day the got banned and all the remaining stock was pulled off the sales floor. Glad you didn't get hosed and can still make your kits, you make it possible to have an off road toy that never should have been taken away.
Glad you can still make trike parts! Definitely saving right now to buy all the parts as soon as possible. They are the coolest 😎. Keep up the great work. I look forward in doing business with you in the future!
@@BVCOFFROADYeah Buddy. Still hate it here too. Need to change gears one day. If I ever get to AZ, you know I'll stop in. I miss the whole atmosphere and the industry. I am so proud seeing how far you've come. Keep up the great work and innovation. Never mind the haters. They're just jealous.
Man, you’ve got the dream job! Your company is so damn badass. Dirtbikes are my passion. I’m 41 and haven’t slowed on the track much, but being that I retired a year ago, I decided to start a new career, and Machinist is my new career. My dream is to work in a shop like yours someday, but there are none in my area in WA. Anyway, I wish I could be running that mill creating rad machines that nobody else does. Y’all kick ass.
Nice to hear you are going to give some attention to quads The trx builds you do are awesome . I know trx and banshee are the most popular but don’t forget us Suzuki Quadracer riders. It would be nice to see some sweet billet parts for the LT250r!
Good video, thanks for posting. From one business owner to another, you really opened up and let the customer base know what was going on. I think this will serve you great going forward. I have watched your channel wanting a trike and big wheel kit but waiting.... I grew up on 3wheelers from the HOnda 110 to a 1985 250sx. (Have a SX right now) I will eventually get a big wheel kit for either a crf250/450x or a crf 125. Keep your head up and buy low sell high... You will be fine. I am in Austin TX looking for a new opportunity and its not about the money, if you were here i'd be knocking on yalls door just to help and learn. Good Luck!
We call these people Keyboard Warriors ! It’s sad some of these people don’t have anything else better to do. I love your stuff and wish I could afford a trike kit. I have been wanting one since I saw your content years ago. My life hasn’t been the same since I sold my 1986 250R
Keep on trucking dude, never personally bought anything from BVC but have been a fan of the TH-cam channel for years since the New York days. Definitely think there’s a market for you guys to produce parts for the Yamaha Raptor 700 and I would love the bring my following over to you guys to support. Just a suggestion, like I said big fan and will continue watching and supporting 🤘
Thank you for the support 💪🏼💪🏼. I will never stop pushing. All of this has been a huge learning experience … and you guys know i try and be as transparent as possible when the time is right.
Keep up the good work. Sorry for the stressful times. I also have a neck injury with three blown discs, and at one point lost some strength in my right arm that I’ve mostly recovered. My first ATV was a 1972 ATC 90. We then had a 1983 ATC 185S, and once I started working and could afford it, I purchased a 1985 ATC 250 R in the late 90s which I still have. I have thought that what you do with the three wheeler and BW kits has been awesome the whole time. I look forward to seeing what happens with BVC in the future.
Delighted to see BVC is not only alive and well, but growing. I hate to hear about your neck injury, and it bothering you again, thank GOD you have such a dedicated and capable wife, I wish y'all HUGE success and good health, i will keep you guys in my prayers, and THANK YOU for the update! BE SAFE!
I appreciate what you do for this industry. Thank you for not backing down. You're right , F@ck the haters. They will always be there. Keep up the good work!!
Regardless of the stupidity of various agencies (and people) in this country, I appreciate everything you guys do.. Thank you... If we were closer, it would be cool to build for you guys.. #makeatcsgreatagain #triketheworld #teamwaxoffroad
Always love what you guys build absolutely awesome definitely mist the convention builds didn’t know anything about this but thanks for sharing this and explaining it all.. awesome stuff guys.. 👍🏻 watching from the Uk 🇬🇧
I grew up riding atc's and loved them, up here in Canada we were able to buy new ones til 1987. I was so excited when my son first showed me your TH-cam video's, I still dream of owning another atc, I enjoy my Outlander 2 up and that will have to do I guess.
Thank you for the update and everything you do. I've been a 3WW member for years and have followed your progress in your business for a long time. And so glad to have you guys doing your thing as opposed to that other clown. Anyway, CPSC, BATF, all these unconstitutional alphabet soup agencies need to be completely abolished. I don't blame you one bit for playing it safe as you dealt with those fools. But I'm VERY glad to hear you will still be selling conversion parts. I hope to do a CR based trike build in the not too distant future and there is but one business name on my list that I look forward to dealing with on those parts, and that is BVC Trikes!! Carry on sir and thank you for letting us know!
I'm sorry for what happened! I hope you don't stop making trike kits! I grew up on an ATC 110 and i would love to covert my 250RX someday, I wish you the best!!
Started riding an ATC 90 with a 133 big bore kit when I was 14 at buttercup and glamis sand dunes. Then we had an 185s, 200x and 250r. I rode every weekend in pantano wash at golf links. Back in those days no one rode with helmets and guess what we are still here. Dip shits should stay home on their computers and leave us alone. I can not tell you how F'ing excited I was to learn about you and your company. Keep doing what you're doing there are a shit ton of people that want your products and services. I will be contacting you soon to get that old 200x some updated suspension from you. LOVE YOU GUYS!!!
I used to go into my local head shop back in the 90s, and I had to ask to see their "water pipes." That's why I'm watching this video about "motorcycle training wheels."
Glad you will be still making the training wheel kits. It’s still on my bucket list to build one of those bikes for my collection. Unbelievable how Facebook deleted your page
I rode 3 wheelers during my entire youth. Not once did i have a serious accident. With responsible adult supervision, we learned and knew the capabilities and dangers involved. I find it a gross overreach of this organizations mission! It should be the consumers' choice to buy and product they choose! Happy to hear you prevailed, most dont because they don't have the resources to fight. That is exactly what organizations and gov agencies abuse, they have unlimited funds to bankrupt you!
Isn’t this a country we fight everyday to be free …of course we have the dumbass people we just bypass because of course those are the ones our parents have taught us to stay away from ! You sir are an innovator ! Complete inspiration!! Don’t give up on your dreams and for certain keep up the great work! I love what you do and sir remember one thing you can’t make everyone happy but you can make yourself happy so f…. the haters
It's amazing the amount of animosity there is in the trike world. I was making a few parts and instantly ran into BS and even lost a friend over it. You would think trikes bring us together, but it doesn't.
I didn't even know this was going on...I am not on Fake book...foe this exact reason...Thank you for what you do bro..truly an American Story, Your business n Journey. Keep...Keeping On!!
@@BVCOFFROAD I know I heard you say that I just enjoyed watching you guys do your thing. I used to ride and repair myself. Just thought what you have going was cool
Glad to see y'all are still going strong! It's a damn shame the govt still has a vendetta against trikes! I've been wondering if y'all have ever considered making a Tenere 700 trike ( if it can be done?) as I know in the past y'all have done a ktm690. I think it would be a badass, bulletproof reliable platform for a street legal trike.
I find it funny when people think you guys only do trike kits. I remember when my friend and I found your original shop years ago next to the SHELL station when you were still in Plattsburgh. Besides selling parts I think the only thing you guys did custom at the time were custom race quads and powder coating. On a side note have you guys ever thought about doing custom parts for vintage dirt bikes as well? I think a modern recreation of the swing arms on my IT400 and YZ465 that could take a modern disc brake setup would be awesome. :)
My freind puts a 3 wheeler triple clamp, front wheel on CR500 bikes. Then they custom build a swingarm that houses the ATC 250R axle. It's actually pretty simple. And the VIN reflects a motorcycle, just like a Harley Trike.
We need more shops like yours. Yamaha is the only ones still building sport quads. If they ever stop selling them its shops like BVC Racing that will keeps sport quads alive forever with parts and frames. 🤘🏻
Find this fascinating, Harley Davidson builds trikes every day and they take a motorcycle and convert it to a trike, you can buy a Honda Goldwing motorcycle trike direct from a dealer but they want to come into your shop and shut you down??? Very sad and pathetic
The cpsc has no reason to interfere with what people do with their personal property and they should not have any role in what you put together or sell to grown ass adults. My god if some person is purchasing and shipping a bike to you and waits for a build to happen then they are fully aware of the dangers of riding bikes on the street or off-road.
Glad to see you guys are able to offer kits again! I was bummed to see you guys pull kits shortly after dropping the crf110 kit which I figured would sell very well since the atc70 market is booming. Speaking of which, are you guys looking at making some atc70 stuff?
Your builds are rad! Love your stuff! Had a few ATCs (86 250r and a couple 200x's) loved them. I never thought they could screw with you guys as I always thought they were trike builds and those were legal. Ridiculous they pick and choose! Road trikes ok. Dirt trikes, not ok. BS! Another alphabet agency.... LOL, Im surprised they even went any further when they discovered youre a small business and not huge... Its all about $$$ with these folks.
I thought the 3 wheeler ban was only supposed to be voluntary by the manufactures as a compromise for 13 years. Here we are some 30 to 40 years and they are still getting but hurt that someone would even assemble a few for customers who bought kits.
@@DariusBuildzsomebody always makes a comment like this when someone else states the obvious. I’m a conservative/libertarian. I do not trust either political party or our government in general. They are all power hungry and corrupt. But I assume by your statement maybe you believe Biden and the democrats are no worse than the republicans? Maybe I’m assuming wrong and that’s not what you mean. Either way, you’d have to literally be blind and deaf not to see that the democrats and the entire left side of the political spectrum are doing their absolute best to take away our freedoms as fast as they can. They are in fact the ones pushing gun control, empowering the EPA to attack small automotive performance shops and now three wheeler builders. Like I said I don’t trust any of them, but it’s clear the progressive left is the group pushing for more and more government oversight and more government power and control. Anybody that can’t see that has been watching way too much CNN and MSNBC.
@@DariusBuildz nothing about politics then or now is funny…it’s sickening how 🇺🇸 has been sold out…you’ll notice I mentioned the Man…not the Party…it shouldn’t be about that Dude…imo only👊🇺🇸
For F***'s Sake!!! It's grown a$$ Men and Women who wants and pays for these modifications!!! I hope BVC never stops converting 2 wheels to 3!!! With the CSPC coming in, it could have been the late 80's all over again!!!
Im a small business owner who got off ebay 5 years ago and it was the best decision I ever made. I do not have time for drama,haters,uneducated people. If you do good work or sell good products, people will find you. Dont feed into the machine. Eventually the machine will break down and we can get back to actually being social in the real world, not online.
1987 they werent banned, it was a 10 year moratorium, basically the bike company agreed to stop selling them for 10 years. Also the supreme court ruled on the chevron case, basically telling the ATF, epa and other agencies they cant make laws, congress makes laws, hence peopke get to fish their pistol braces and bumpstocks out of the lakes because of the tragic boating accident,
Dude f the government. You make badass shit and amazing products. This is just another reason why government control helps nothing. Thanks for what you do. Continue to be a free American
It’s annoying having someone tell you how to run your business and tell you bikes with training wheels is dangerous..you could walk out of your house and get run over by a bus..everything we do on a day to day basis can be dangerous,and motorcycle and quads and trikes aren’t dangerous the person behind the controls is, kinda like pew pews..they are not dangerous if handled correctly 🤷🏻♂️ Love you content and builds keep up the good work and videos coming.also if I wasn’t in Canada I would 100% take your job opportunity
The only thing i hate is the price but your parts look like the highest quality from kits ive seen definitely gonna order triples and front axle from yall when i build the trike i want but thats probably not gonna be anytime soon
My grandfather owned a Yamaha dealership and near the end of his run he started building trikes with motortrike kits. Used gold wings mostly and an assortment of Yamahas … these were all street legal street oriented kits and I don’t think he ever had a lick of trouble doing it. Let it motivate you!
I have a street titled crf450x. It is a 2005 and all original. I was wondering what it costs to put one of these bvc trikes together. Is it a kit I could buy and assemble myself, or is there chassis modifications that I would need to have the frame machined to accommodate. What is a ballpark figure for the cost of a conversion. Thank you in advance
Hello, No frame mods required other than exhaust mod to re angle mid pipe etc Check out bvctrikes.com and we can hop on a call to go over how it all works (our bolt on parts)
Even if 3 wheelers are more dangerous than other styles of bikes, we as Americans should have the right to produce, sell and freely use them at our discretion. They are not more dangerous in my opinion, they just require a different skill set to operate safely. Once you learn it, you are good. The government and all its little subsidary agencies suck.
Gov't employees aren't the brightest apparently. Dealing with people who aren't able to comprehend basic mechanical concepts has Tobe maddening. Especially, since it's their job.
Love the Big Wheel bikes. I grew up on first the Yamaha Big Wheel 80 then The big wheel 200 and then the Big Wheel 350. Those bikes are worth a small fortune today if they have been taken care of. I want a KTM 690 street legal trike... also want a big wheel DRZ 400. Cant make up my mind or is it cheaper to do a Honda cause I know you use a lot of parts off Honda cause of fitmit and their parts are great?
@BVCOFFROAD sounds like it really isn't an issue anyway your still doing your thing for the public only difference is they have to do the installation themselves
Im 59 i was there for the 1st ATC 90. Moving forward, the real reason wheelers were banned is the accidents and deaths. But what no one would really say. It was all the drunk fools with no helmet. If you know how to ride, you know how to ride
I’m wondering what the SCOTUS “Chevron deference” ruling did to open up things like Trikes and Diesel deletes and CAFE standards. I know it prevented the EPA from deeming a pond a waterway….. wonder who will be the tip of the spear to challenge the overreach of EPA, ATF etc.
F the CPSC!!! I contacted them about aftermarket LED headlights for cars that were way too bright and their reply was "this is out of our jurisdiction. Contact your state DMV to file a grievance". So, they are saying motor vehicles and their aftermarket parts that are registered and insured through the DMV is out of their jurisdiction and they won't take action or investigate. It just so happens all my three wheelers are registered and insured. So how can they enforce their crappy law against custom built three wheelers if consumers are registering and insuring them!? Congrats on the WIN. Keep doing what you're doing BVC folks! You are making dreams come true! If and when I get $20k I have a three wheeler project for you folks that will top the Banshee trike! 🤘
It's amazing how hard an organization will try to shut down a hard working business that's trying to offer legit products to put smiles on people's faces.
The people spreading rumors and hate online are soft and no better than the crooks trying to shut you down.
Happy to have worked with you guys and I have your back 🤘👊
Who you talking about? fcking haters ? Who cares about haters, snow flakes

I hope to do a CR based trike build in the not too distant future and there is but one business name on my list that I look forward to dealing with on those parts, and that is BVC Trikes!!
Carry on sir and thank you for letting us know!
I'm sorry for what happened! I hope you don't stop making trike kits! I grew up on an ATC 110 and i would love to covert my 250RX someday, I wish you the best!!
Awesome news, dude. Hope to see more of your product in Canada :-).
Started riding an ATC 90 with a 133 big bore kit when I was 14 at buttercup and glamis sand dunes. Then we had an 185s, 200x and 250r. I rode every weekend in pantano wash at golf links. Back in those days no one rode with helmets and guess what we are still here. Dip shits should stay home on their computers and leave us alone. I can not tell you how F'ing excited I was to learn about you and your company. Keep doing what you're doing there are a shit ton of people that want your products and services.
I will be contacting you soon to get that old 200x some updated suspension from you. LOVE YOU GUYS!!!
I used to go into my local head shop back in the 90s, and I had to ask to see their "water pipes." That's why I'm watching this video about "motorcycle training wheels."
Absolutely thrilled to see you're still going! I haven't exactly been keeping up with you since I saw one of your videos years ago..
Glad to hear that you will be building more parts for the 250r.
I got faith in you and your company to come up with mew and improved ideas that will be a financial gain and continue the growth of your company.
I want a street legal BVC trike!
Glad you will be still making the training wheel kits. It’s still on my bucket list to build one of those bikes for my collection. Unbelievable how Facebook deleted your page
We had a F J B flag and they shit canned me and made up some BS that i i didnt do 🤣
@@BVCOFFROAD Im banned on facebook for FJB memes as well
Keep up the work, I can’t wait for some more 250r parts to put on my R.
I rode 3 wheelers during my entire youth. Not once did i have a serious accident. With responsible adult supervision, we learned and knew the capabilities and dangers involved.
I find it a gross overreach of this organizations mission! It should be the consumers' choice to buy and product they choose! Happy to hear you prevailed, most dont because they don't have the resources to fight. That is exactly what organizations and gov agencies abuse, they have unlimited funds to bankrupt you!
Isn’t this a country we fight everyday to be free …of course we have the dumbass people we just bypass because of course those are the ones our parents have taught us to stay away from ! You sir are an innovator ! Complete inspiration!! Don’t give up on your dreams and for certain keep up the great work! I love what you do and sir remember one thing you can’t make everyone happy but you can make yourself happy so f…. the haters
That org is going a way very soon .
They won’t hassle you no more .
Look into it .
You guys do great work
Keeeeep it up !!!
It's amazing the amount of animosity there is in the trike world. I was making a few parts and instantly ran into BS and even lost a friend over it. You would think trikes bring us together, but it doesn't.
I didn't even know this was going on...I am not on Fake book...foe this exact reason...Thank you for what you do bro..truly an American Story, Your business n Journey.
Keep...Keeping On!!
I love what you guys do I'm sorry to hear someone had a problem with the 3 wheeler builds I wanted 1 bad ❤❤
You can still buy the kit
@@BVCOFFROAD I know I heard you say that I just enjoyed watching you guys do your thing. I used to ride and repair myself. Just thought what you have going was cool
Glad to see y'all are still going strong! It's a damn shame the govt still has a vendetta against trikes! I've been wondering if y'all have ever considered making a Tenere 700 trike ( if it can be done?) as I know in the past y'all have done a ktm690. I think it would be a badass, bulletproof reliable platform for a street legal trike.
Great job pivoting and moving forward man. Keep doing your thing, haters are gonna hate!
Great video!Keep moving forward.
I find it funny when people think you guys only do trike kits. I remember when my friend and I found your original shop years ago next to the SHELL station when you were still in Plattsburgh. Besides selling parts I think the only thing you guys did custom at the time were custom race quads and powder coating. On a side note have you guys ever thought about doing custom parts for vintage dirt bikes as well? I think a modern recreation of the swing arms on my IT400 and YZ465 that could take a modern disc brake setup would be awesome. :)
Love your builds. Can you please make a reverse trike kit. I have a can am Ryker but would love a more Enduro type of reverse trike. PLEASE!!!!
Dude it’s a shame how much government overreach is at the moment,the builds you made are a masterpiece
A street legal trike with the Banshee motor? A 2 Stroke over 50cc on the street? Wow and wow. Of course I want one
Keep pushing brother.. I love it!
It is time to start building sport quads ,you are the best.
My freind puts a 3 wheeler triple clamp, front wheel on CR500 bikes. Then they custom build a swingarm that houses the ATC 250R axle. It's actually pretty simple. And the VIN reflects a motorcycle, just like a Harley Trike.
People having fun.... government will definitely step because yah can't have people having fun !
Cant be doin wheelies on a 500 with a smile on my face without some hate 🤣🤣
Awesome to know you guys can still keep 3 wheelers alive somehow! How do I apply to your company?? I would LOVE to do this for a living!!
We need more shops like yours. Yamaha is the only ones still building sport quads. If they ever stop selling them its shops like BVC Racing that will keeps sport quads alive forever with parts and frames. 🤘🏻
Find this fascinating, Harley Davidson builds trikes every day and they take a motorcycle and convert it to a trike, you can buy a Honda Goldwing motorcycle trike direct from a dealer but they want to come into your shop and shut you down??? Very sad and pathetic
The cpsc has no reason to interfere with what people do with their personal property and they should not have any role in what you put together or sell to grown ass adults. My god if some person is purchasing and shipping a bike to you and waits for a build to happen then they are fully aware of the dangers of riding bikes on the street or off-road.
You are correct sir…. Thats been our argument this whole time
Glad to see you guys are able to offer kits again! I was bummed to see you guys pull kits shortly after dropping the crf110 kit which I figured would sell very well since the atc70 market is booming. Speaking of which, are you guys looking at making some atc70 stuff?
Your builds are rad! Love your stuff! Had a few ATCs (86 250r and a couple 200x's) loved them. I never thought they could screw with you guys as I always thought they were trike builds and those were legal. Ridiculous they pick and choose! Road trikes ok. Dirt trikes, not ok. BS!
Another alphabet agency.... LOL, Im surprised they even went any further when they discovered youre a small business and not huge... Its all about $$$ with these folks.
You make a Great Batch of Off Road Accessories.
Thank you! Much more to come.
I thought the 3 wheeler ban was only supposed to be voluntary by the manufactures as a compromise for 13 years. Here we are some 30 to 40 years and they are still getting but hurt that someone would even assemble a few for customers who bought kits.
Gov at work…yay…meanwhile..Biden🤢🤮
Keep on Keeping On 👊🇺🇸👊
🇺🇸
That's funny when a republican was the president when trikes were banned...
@@DariusBuildzsomebody always makes a comment like this when someone else states the obvious. I’m a conservative/libertarian. I do not trust either political party or our government in general. They are all power hungry and corrupt. But I assume by your statement maybe you believe Biden and the democrats are no worse than the republicans? Maybe I’m assuming wrong and that’s not what you mean. Either way, you’d have to literally be blind and deaf not to see that the democrats and the entire left side of the political spectrum are doing their absolute best to take away our freedoms as fast as they can. They are in fact the ones pushing gun control, empowering the EPA to attack small automotive performance shops and now three wheeler builders. Like I said I don’t trust any of them, but it’s clear the progressive left is the group pushing for more and more government oversight and more government power and control. Anybody that can’t see that has been watching way too much CNN and MSNBC.
@@DariusBuildz nothing about politics then or now is funny…it’s sickening how 🇺🇸 has been sold out…you’ll notice I mentioned the Man…not the Party…it shouldn’t be about that Dude…imo only👊🇺🇸
Facebook is the down fall of society!
Glad to hear you're still selling kits
This kind of crap is why I'm not on Facebook.
It is straight fairy world 🤡 show on there….. youtube is where its at. We also do instagram and tiktok content.
Disabled my FB account years ago and it was one of the best decisions I've ever made!
For F***'s Sake!!! It's grown a$$ Men and Women who wants and pays for these modifications!!! I hope BVC never stops converting 2 wheels to 3!!! With the CSPC coming in, it could have been the late 80's all over again!!!
Im a small business owner who got off ebay 5 years ago and it was the best decision I ever made. I do not have time for drama,haters,uneducated people. If you do good work or sell good products, people will find you. Dont feed into the machine. Eventually the machine will break down and we can get back to actually being social in the real world, not online.
I would have fun sweeping the floor & just hanging out o see the big wheel toys
I don't go on Facebook so thanks for the video
So crazy. Sorry you guys are going through this.
1987 they werent banned, it was a 10 year moratorium, basically the bike company agreed to stop selling them for 10 years.
Also the supreme court ruled on the chevron case, basically telling the ATF, epa and other agencies they cant make laws, congress makes laws, hence peopke get to fish their pistol braces and bumpstocks out of the lakes because of the tragic boating accident,
Dude f the government. You make badass shit and amazing products. This is just another reason why government control helps nothing. Thanks for what you do. Continue to be a free American
It’s annoying having someone tell you how to run your business and tell you bikes with training wheels is dangerous..you could walk out of your house and get run over by a bus..everything we do on a day to day basis can be dangerous,and motorcycle and quads and trikes aren’t dangerous the person behind the controls is, kinda like pew pews..they are not dangerous if handled correctly 🤷🏻♂️
Love you content and builds keep up the good work and videos coming.also if I wasn’t in Canada I would 100% take your job opportunity
The only thing i hate is the price but your parts look like the highest quality from kits ive seen definitely gonna order triples and front axle from yall when i build the trike i want but thats probably not gonna be anytime soon
Way to go KAREN'S 😮fjb
My grandfather owned a Yamaha dealership and near the end of his run he started building trikes with motortrike kits. Used gold wings mostly and an assortment of Yamahas … these were all street legal street oriented kits and I don’t think he ever had a lick of trouble doing it. Let it motivate you!
I like it…. They def as far as i know dont cover street bikes. (Dual sport enduro bikes)
I have a street titled crf450x. It is a 2005 and all original. I was wondering what it costs to put one of these bvc trikes together. Is it a kit I could buy and assemble myself, or is there chassis modifications that I would need to have the frame machined to accommodate. What is a ballpark figure for the cost of a conversion. Thank you in advance
Hello,
No frame mods required other than exhaust mod to re angle mid pipe etc
Check out bvctrikes.com and we can hop on a call to go over how it all works (our bolt on parts)
Even if 3 wheelers are more dangerous than other styles of bikes, we as Americans should have the right to produce, sell and freely use them at our discretion. They are not more dangerous in my opinion, they just require a different skill set to operate safely. Once you learn it, you are good. The government and all its little subsidary agencies suck.
Why can companies do street based conversions such as Honda Gold Wings and Harley ? Also Can-Am builds a production trike ?
Gov't employees aren't the brightest apparently. Dealing with people who aren't able to comprehend basic mechanical concepts has Tobe maddening. Especially, since it's their job.
Love the Big Wheel bikes. I grew up on first the Yamaha Big Wheel 80 then The big wheel 200 and then the Big Wheel 350. Those bikes are worth a small fortune today if they have been taken care of. I want a KTM 690 street legal trike... also want a big wheel DRZ 400. Cant make up my mind or is it cheaper to do a Honda cause I know you use a lot of parts off Honda cause of fitmit and their parts are great?
I'm a certified welder and I'm not scared of them folks
I live in Macon GA but I'll move out there
Because a crf110 trike is more dangerous than a crf450r, a 60hp machine that you don't even need a license to buy or drive
Well good thing we are offering the 110 trike kits again 🇺🇸
@@BVCOFFROAD siiick
Do you still have the trike conversion kit for the kx250 (2022)
Did they have a warrant? If they didn't, why did you let them in??
Good question!
?
Didn't Bob Marley sing, no warrant, no enter.... it was something like that.
@@anybodyseenmyshoe1532 Close enough LOL!
I'm assuming he's not interested in answering my question.
I wonder if chevron deference comes into play now that the Supreme Court has canceled it
No idea i think with 3 wheels its their safety issues - even though we explained most of them are for track use… it didnt matter
@BVCOFFROAD sounds like it really isn't an issue anyway your still doing your thing for the public only difference is they have to do the installation themselves
Im 59 i was there for the 1st ATC 90. Moving forward, the real reason wheelers were banned is the accidents and deaths.
But what no one would really say. It was all the drunk fools with no helmet. If you know how to ride, you know how to ride
I’m wondering what the SCOTUS “Chevron deference” ruling did to open up things like Trikes and Diesel deletes and CAFE standards. I know it prevented the EPA from deeming a pond a waterway….. wonder who will be the tip of the spear to challenge the overreach of EPA, ATF etc.
💪🏼
that sucks dude i liked yer builds and vids
I will still do some and keep em. Just cant offer install service / turn key on em.
When is the next update video for the 250r chassis?
Very soon
F the CPSC!!! I contacted them about aftermarket LED headlights for cars that were way too bright and their reply was "this is out of our jurisdiction. Contact your state DMV to file a grievance". So, they are saying motor vehicles and their aftermarket parts that are registered and insured through the DMV is out of their jurisdiction and they won't take action or investigate. It just so happens all my three wheelers are registered and insured. So how can they enforce their crappy law against custom built three wheelers if consumers are registering and insuring them!? Congrats on the WIN. Keep doing what you're doing BVC folks! You are making dreams come true! If and when I get $20k I have a three wheeler project for you folks that will top the Banshee trike! 🤘
