  • It's been a long time since you guys have seen the reverse trike build but today I'm working on the rear swing arm of the reverse trike. I wanted to rebuild the reverse trike swing arm to accommodate larger street tires. Next reverse trike video I should be adding a shock to the rear and finalizing most of the swing arm as well as adding the front brake calipers. Also let me know what you guys think about swapping the engine, should I keep the cbr600 or replace it with something else?

    this vehicle is so special. when it's accelerating, its nose goes up. when it's braking, its nose goes down.
    maybe, i think this vehicle motion is so exiting. i want to see next video very very much!!

    Looking real good! With a “pusher” fuel pump it’s good to have it gravity fed. Dropping that pump to the level of the outlet will ensure full pressure all the time. I try and have them in the rail right below the tank.

    You could build a sprung tensioner that'd ride the chain at perfect tension through the motion of the swingarm easy.

      Check with wherever you get tags ( in VA. it is the DMV ) about registering it as a custom built or experimental vehicle . I don't know how hard it is where You live but hear it isn't to hard, it is the same process you would go through to register a custom motorcycle .

    I have done the same. When you are very tired, you start missing many things. Now, since lessons learn. I take a brake and once my mind is settled and muscles relaxed. I recheck everything before starting the engine work.
    And it never fails, when checking twice, things seem to work just right. Great video and you never lost heart in what you are doing: perseverance goes a long way.

    Handy tip for when changing spark plug in deep cylinder heads, get a straight peice of fuel hose, stick it over ceramic end of plug to finish unscrewing it, u can also use hose to refit and start screwing into cylinder haeds.

    Just to be honest..... I said to myself before making any comments … see what this guy is all about. Well I here to compliment the channel for great stuff that at least keeps me glued to the screen. No dought you have great skill sets that separate you from the great number of groups out here building.... My only grip is there has to be a road map to these builds. I realize that it's boring to pull out the paper to solve problems... Such as suspension geometry..... Steering geometry, and so on....You are a smart person.. Your attention to details puts you out front....stay cool..

  • @aserta

    Just a thought for a future build, if you go to the scrap yard and see a torsion bar type suspension (trailer or camper) check to see if it's not one of those rubber types. For a small project like this, they make a really cool swing arm, because it's all self contained in the arm and pivot.

    A tech tip I learned back in High School shop class was to take a length of vacuum/washer fluid hose to help put in spark plugs. It will fit tightly over the plug, allowing you to use it to hand tighten and loosen the plug as well as to easily extract/install them from their housings.

  • @benpitcher5539
    @benpitcher5539 2 роки тому +2

    Looking good! You could always try to move the rear swing arm pivot points outboard to align them parallel either side of the chain drive sprocket. Then you would have no issues with the chain rubbing and the chain tension would not alter as the suspension angle changes?

    Great job of bleeding the fuel system! Can't be too thorough.
    In CA, three wheelers are still considered motorcycles. As long as you have the paperwork from the bike, you should be able to register that as a custom motorcycle. Usually bike titles have an engine serial# as well, easing this process.

    One thing I waould say is that the brackets that hold the swingarm to the frame need to be a lot beefier, even small road bumps will, in time, crack those ones you have now. Have the base that is welded to the frame at least twice the width as the top section
