Strong design, great execution, and with no curves it would be easy to fab some aluminum body panels for partial coverage.
Gday
Love the look , awesome effort
Im considering doing a bike trike like that , just with a shell to cover it from the elements and fingers of people
Whats the LAWS like in USA to get this rego and road worthy like ?
shit like this is why i wanna learn to fab/weld. i'm scared to death of being on a motorcycle but something like this? i bet is fun and having a cage seems safer
It was a lot of fun, and I got many, many requests for me to build more for others. There are plans out there to make it easier to build so you don't have to start from scratch like I did. You can look up "Reverse trike owners and builders" on Facebook for a good group that are helpful and have done it. Lots of people want to criticize but have never truly built something themselves.
Looking at this now, I'd make a lot of changes. But I guess that's what you get when you look back at previous work, haha!
My buddy has it now
@@cjskylair Glad to hear it's still out in the wild! Got pics of what it looks like now?
I've never owned a bike but want to. I'm an amputee since 1970, lost my right leg in a motorcycle accident. The trike should be perfect for someone like me. Thanks!
You go bro!
My uncle owns it right now he just bought it back yesterday in bad condition
How much for you to build me one??!!!
Hey, there is a bike stuck at the back of your trike...
Whatever happened to the normal trike.
This one probably gives you 5mi to the gallon... with all the weight he's added to it 🙄
MY FARTS SOUND MEAN NOT THAT WRECK. LOL
You can see that I've... done that a couple of times. LOL.
How much would u sell 1 of these??!
you talk funny
Not bad but not too good 1.Too heavy 2.Too boxy 3.Too long and wide sorry. But an "A" for effort and execution and you might want to tell people what you are willing to sell it for just remember there are factory built Trikes out there for sale as well...
How much are you asking?
I'm looking forward to seeing your trike Lenny, it has to be lighter, less boxy, less long and less wide than Kevin's. Let's see a video of your far superior machine.
Yeah lenny.... wheres yours? Lets see it.(crickets chirping) ok then i guess you dont have one, so quit criticizing and bashing this mans build especially since you dont even have one to show.
Hey I saw this on Facebook 😊
great build ! i am envious . and somewhat pissed . now i have to go build something , thanks .
edit : i am originally from grafton ohio , now in florida .
Lmao them not gsxr mirrors they are $20 led turn signal mirrors from China 🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️
Kevin Pitts trust me they said the same for my zx6 I got the same ones😂😂😂 btw very impressive love the sound
U have the blueprint?, by far nice design, need assistance on building mine
You dont need a blueprint just look at it. Simple design
2.800 cc V4 engine?
A bike like this was never offered, only VFR 750, 800 and 1200 cc.
See en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Honda_VF_and_VFR
Im very impressed with the vehicle but have a couple questions.
Do you know the 0-60 time on it?
Also how much did it cost you to build?
Can you even sell the reverse trike since its illegal to sell custom vehicles under DMV regulations in most states? (I could be wrong about this).....
Ok,
Thanks
In WA state, if you have a steering wheel, a seat, and a seat belt, then you don't need to have a motorcycle endorsement, for a trike.
Hi there, I want to to start by say wow nice job man, I live in central america Nicaragua a just got my self a honda cb 750 1996 very old bike very heavy too is a 4 cylinder and at first I want to do a cafe racer but after seing what you have done man I really want to do that too with my bike you think you can help me with the drawings for the framing
I’m looking for specs on how to build this
Sorry, no plans are available. But there are a lot of good resources at "Reverse Trike Owners and Builders" Facebook page!
@kevinpitts I like your build. I'm in the process of building my own trike, but I see you did everything I had a body I welded on a bike. I got all the wiring just need a lil help trying to make a shifter an also breaks I'm using a Harley sportster starting fresh
Hi, are you willing to share the schematics , im a biker but i currently dont have one id like to build something lile this from a crashed bike since i cant buy one
Bit short... Compared to the cockpit
No reverse....a bitch to parallel park.
Nice build dude Only change I would try and get a wider swing arm to get a wider back wheel
I really respect the excellent effort! It's quite the "BattleWagon"! It would be a terrific platform for a
competition between universities engineering departments; to have the submissions be able to do
exactly what this Cycle can (Re: adjustability) Also invent the coolest space space-frame known to man.
Would you be willing to share the plans online for free or small payment ?
got so much you can do with that trike. look solid too. i have never build one yet, when i do, i will build one like that, well done brother
Good job...how much did the whole thing cost ya not including time? And how long did it take ya?
Buenas amigo si tiene usted la lista de todos los accesorios que dentran en el ciche seria tan anable de enviarne a mi correo y las medidas del chasis o de lo contrario usted ne ouede brundar su correo electronico gracias
Hi! I have at the moment a Honda VFR.. and was thinking of making a trike out of it. Your video posted in You Tube is a great source for a reference and inspiration. Will get in touch in the future once I get to working on it. Cheers!!
You bet, good luck! I will say, the VFR frame is not as easy to fab around vs other bikes because of the engine configuration. But not impossible, and such a good sounding engine!
Hello: I love your trike , I am planning to build one, can you give me the plans of it please? I’m planning to use either a bmw motorcycle or a Kawasaki hayabusa car
How did you do the steering im making something but when i go to fast it starts swaying
i am recommend you study a way to put a rain protection acrylic bubble
Too much explaining ... drive the thing let us see it run... then finish explaining 🤣😂🤣😂
I'm telling you you have knocked that out of the ball park that is so neat. I like your video you explained everything so well.
IM going to use the steering yoke and fit it to a go-cart frame I wil strengthen, so in effect, I could take my ninja all and replace the front falks hopefully lol
chất quá anh trai
I would love to do this with an electric motorcycle.
Same!
@@hacktical521 is this available for sale??? I could use this in music videos
simply you welded motorcycle's rear frame to handmade frame sorry but how much it could be safe ?
Did you not see the heavy plate from the head stock to the chassis ?
In all honesty, it could be made out of lighter tubing, but understandably, Kevin has looked to safety.
I am sure if Kevin built another trike, he would have modifications in mind.
It's a nice exciting home build, and deserves the praise it is collecting.
cool modify build nice
esta de lujo, le faltarían unas cachas, una carroceria.
Your car looking very dashing look
We need to talk(in a scorned wife's voice)....pun intended.
Nice trike can you send me the plans I want to make a replica
That is one sick trike!
😎👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
What happened to the 1%?
Also , excellent job. That thing looks amazing,and sounds killer...
Awesome Job I mean very well done ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
wow so beautiful, i want to build like that
Is the rear link suspension is able to support this weight
Hey can u help me out with getting a frame done
Excelente🇩🇴🇩🇴🌎
Тяжёлая стальная телега толкается одним мотоциклетным колесом. Всё очень плохо.
@@starley1978 Thanks for the feedback. A lot of weight was added, and if I would have done it better or out of aluminum then it would have regained a lot of speed. It was a fun project though
@@hacktical521 рецепт давно известен: алюминий, 1 место, минимальная масса, спереди узкие мотоциклетные колёса, сзади максимально широкое колесо. Либо передний привод.
@@starley1978 If I had a time machine...
@@hacktical521 тысяча извинений :) Не заметил срок видео
Previous F1 racer?

Can I get the design plzzz????
Are blue prints still not for sale
Two thousand, eight hundred cc? WOW!
It's YUGE!
I live in Cleveland, OH how how far apart are we?
2:35 previous f1 racer?
Want to buy it how much
I've never understood why builders of Bike-based Reverse Trikes revert back to the (vastly inferior) car controls system, instead of staying with the far superior Bike controls . . . ?
I don't follow. Reverting back to car controls? I just went with what was most efficient to do the job
@@hacktical521
I wasn't criticising, I love your work, but I think you're missing a trick, as are other builders.
What I meant was, if I was building one, I'd keep the Bike Controls.
Throttle on the Steering (I'd have a Yoke, or Bars, full-lock to full-lock in approx 240°), probably a Thumb Throttle.
Left Foot Gearchange.
Right Foot Brake (to all three Discs).
Left Hand Clutch, with Quickshifter.
Clutchless Down-Changes are easy and smooth with a Bike Gearbox, so there'd be no need to touch the clutch once you'd pulled away from a stop.
Voila! Perfect control at all times without having to move you Feet or Hands, and you can cover the Brakes at all times, no matter what, so much safer, just like on a Bike.
@@Docv400 okay, I understand now. I really did not follow before. That's an interesting idea, but I feel like you would need some considerable steering assist to stop a potential "tank slapping" since you would have a lot more weight you are pushing against with the same arms that are controlling throttle. I'm sure somebody has done it outside of a leaning trike. I built this one at a shop where I had ample spare parts from cars so that's what I used to keep costs down. If you end up building one the way you described, let me know how it goes!
@@hacktical521
'Direct' Steering can work on a Reverse Trike (it's obviously normal on a 'conventional' Trike, as are Bike Control layouts), but I guess Bike Controls wouldn't be compatible with many Drivers, particularly if they've never ridden a Bike.
I've got a few builds in my Head, been planning for years, and now I'm retired, I should hopefully be able to get started on something!
Can or would you build more or just sell the blueprints
I can't anymore because I don't have the shop or space. And I can't sell blueprints. But if I could do it again, I would do it differently. There's plans out there for good starting points, but when we built this, it was of the first of it's kind to be on the road. Now there's a Slingshot as often as a Corvette where I live.
I like it.. I would have left the single side swing arm.. wider rear tire..put the radiator in the back with electric fan
Kevin Pitts I think it s bad ass!!
Wooo👍🔔🔔🔔👍💖💜
Awesome.I wish i had done something like that while i was still capable.Building trucks and equipment did me in.Be safe.
You would appreciate some of my fabrication and welding.My last construction job in 2008 was the entrance towers at Prudential Center in Newark,NJ.My first construction job survived hurricane Sandy the gates and railings for the bulkhead at Perth Amboy Marina always the lead man.I quit school at 14 and started working on cars.Should have stayed in school.Stay sharp.
If i got the bike to do it how much would u charge to make me one?
Wish could get this brought to my county. How much is it?
how to back vehicle?????? retrocede ese vehiculo...como????
This bike is encaged! It has to bee free :(
I love this car
Not much on looks
very clever man
What about the gears? And clutch
Just for safety thought, I'd like to save your life lol if you could picture in your mind this thing upside down. You have no protection from the roll bars if this turned upside down at highway speed. Your head with helmet would be above the roll bars, and from the front to the seats nothing to protect you from impact and being crushed under this. It's really cool and I'm sure it's nearly impossible to flip it, I'm only commenting cause I'm a former firefighter and I've seen home made vehicle accidents and safety is the most important. Cool looking ride though, have a blast just keep that in mind. It's always the other drivers on the road to worry about, not your driving.
Good thought. When I designed it, if you lay a flat bar from the top of the roll bar to the supporting frame of the front suspension, it was still about 3 to 4 in higher than the top of my helmet. Now if it were truly upside down, I'm sure there would be that much sag in the shoulder area so still a concern for a helmet to hit the pavement. My justification was based on the fact that it is safer than a motorcycle, haha 😂
@hacktical oh it's definitely a cool design. As you said it is safe lol
Oh gorgeous 😬🤯
How much would a diy cost be on this a close figure
Do you build for others?
I love your car
How much would it cost to build one of these? With like a Hyabusa engine?
@@hacktical521 5K that's good I wanna make a 2 seatter too. But yeah mostly build all the parts like the frame an junkyard parts
sir can you give me total size praim, pleace
can you make a 3 wheel scooter with motor a back
@@hacktical521 .. In the end it is all about the shop. I kick myself for not building one of these when i could have, I had a GSXR that had neck damage from the last owner pulling wheeles every day and a huge shop with multiple welders and thousands of square feet of space. there was even a pile of steel pipe in one corner. I feel for you that you lost your shop, I know. I was thankful for the detailed descriptions of how you did the build. I think you might appreciate this ... www.alibaba.com/product-detail/top-quality-trike-car-ztr-trike_60568873201.html?spm=a2700.details.maylikehoz.5.700e372a47tPCO
Olá existe a possibilidade de enviar o projeto ou vender
hi friend how can i get the blueprints of your project i would like to do one of these
How did you do the gearchange lever
It should be in the video, but I just used rods with threaded connectors on the end to tighten and remove lash. I believe it was about four or five feet of just linkage with a fulcrum in the middle to change the direction. So it's nothing too fancy, just using a hand lever to operate the original shift lever on the bike transmission
I love your trike but how do you go in reverse
very cool. nice job
thanks but will you help me to assemble this car
how is this
may i have chases geometry plz
I also want to assemble this car to me.
How did you crank it? Any reverse?
Kevin Pitts, what is the ground clearance? Weight carrying capacity? How far back the seat goes back? Can you duplicate build (schematics, parts list, plans)? If so, how soon can you make another? What was your skin idea?
Square box tubing.... no thanks....
I have multiple questions. I’m building one and need advise
What’s ur Facebook
Oh I’m apart of that group.lol fame aye
STUNNING WORK!
How can i build similer one
@@hacktical521 ok that can be done, dut the design or the dimention it is hard to do
I think assembled has better,,
Love the Mitsubishi seats!
