nice build. put a higher reduction gear in the diff and add a sway bar. that should help with the take off and lean. maybe some paddle tires and a ski up front for the snow.
I have no idea who suggested to put the welding helmet on top of the front fender, but you should give them a promotion based on that alone. It makes the vehicle look so cool. Really nice touch. The steampunk style dorks in America would pay you unthinkable amounts of money for this vehicle 😂
that is easily one of the coolest things I've ever seen built, it turned out ultra awesome, the only possible change I would make is the back wheels, they're too modern but otherwise it's perfect
Good point about the back wheels, there was something about it that just didn't seem quite right to me and that's it.. although in its favor I would say the welders helmet they mounted over the front fender is an absolutely awesome touch.
I'd set about making some girder forks, cos the telescopics won't last too long holding up that mass. Definitely better having the gear lever between your legs, tractor style too. Other than that, excellent basic car based trike build!
Here in the UK a common similar build would utilise the awesome Reliant 850cc engine and drivetrain, until the rules changed it was common to see a set of bike forks welded to the front of a Reliant complete chassis as after all that was how original Raleigh based Reliants were back in the day, one chap even put a Reliant 850 into a BSA bike and rides it daily, it is one of Britain's most versatile motor's and you can carry the whole engine and gearbox under your arm they are so light but will propel a 3 wheel van to 90 at least and get there quicker than a lot of 4 wheel cars.
This one was awesome . Loved the engineering .. Tie Rods for steering shaft end points .. Perfect! The two ladies going for a ride was fun, they make a cute couple ..
That was an awesome build and looked like a Lada fun. As always an awesome video. As far as what to do with it in the future I'd probably recommend adding a couple of finishing touches and have some fun drifting around on some smooth and slippery ice. Being that light weight it should be easy to break some summer tires loose in 2nd gear and do some donuts. I think y'all will have a lot of fun and also be great content.👍👍
Move the clutch to handle bars (hydraulic), and maybe figure out a way to make a foot shifter work with little effort / short throw, that way it will feel more comfortable as a bike/trike... Then maybe figure out an easy way to change suspension height for bigger wheels, so you can convert it to offroad when you want it (and for winter).
Keep it!! It’s cool! Suggestion: Do another Lada 3 wheeler BUT do the 2 wheels in the front! Have the front wheels be the drive wheels. But wait…. There’s more …. Build it lifted (plenty of ground clearance and put V-treads (tractor tires on it and build it for off road!
You guys should try a standalone torque converter in front of your manual transmission. I think it was Plymouth back in the 60s that put out what they called a torque flight drivetrain and the torque converter bolted to the crank with a clutch on the back side then the transmission naturally. It's nice and smooth and is it a lot of fun to drive we made a dune buggy with one and it was a blast.
love the channel!!! I have an idea!! Heat a pool with a Lada motor or 2 or however many it takes. Use a pool like the one used when you ran an engine underwater. Keep up the great experiments!!!!!
Exelent. You have to keep it and reform it into a snowmobil in the winter. Put a ski in front weel and some kind of tank caterpilar at the back weels 😊😊😊
I had my trike built way back to 1995 and using robin reliant engine. Lots of fun. You need a bomber hat made out of leather and a google. Get the frame painted in black.
If it was mine I'd make it left hand shift. So you can shift gears more smoothly. And put headlights, taillights, and directionals so you can make it street legal. So you can drive it on the roads. But you guys did a great job. Thanks and keep these videos coming.
hi, please try to make a) a diesel/gas-electric lada. motor-generator-cables, rear axle with electric motor; no gearbox, no prop shaft; or b) a charged lada with a belt driven rotrex charger. you can alternate a turbocharger into a rotrex charger
Need to relocate the gear stick to somewhere a bit easier to get to, like in the crotch, which makes it all the more imperitave to not brake hard... :P
That was awesome! Great experiment! But he should’ve had put the shifter on the left side! That way he didn’t have to take his hand of the accelerator! That’s crazy!👌😂👍build a body around it! That would look great!
Definitely cool, guys. Would be a hoot to see it with lights and registration. Not sure about there, but here that would be street legal with the lights and safety equipment installed.
love it.. could be shorter length and gear shift between legs may be nicer. welding helmet turned headlight bucket is a fun obvious idea. get it running better and it'll be great. rear shock top location a little awkward looking \ / .
Id like to see ya all make a pulling lawn tracter extend the front end put a lada engine in front of 2 twin engines from mowers ..so make front end long and put better wheeelsvin back well you got the idea ..just a thought . Godbless
try to make it 3 wheel drive ,a sprocket at the top of the front fork (chain going down to the front wheel) where it pivots and another gear and pinion to CV joint down to transfer case.
Bring the back seat down or two bucket swivel seats for McLaren type seating. Build a Model T Ford C cab panel van body. Rear area as a parts hauler Not sure you road laws but here it would be considered a motorcycle and require a motorcycle license.
For front wheel, I would have used x2 bike wheels with tyres still on, a spacer between them with connecting rod straight through the centre to connect them then put them inside a big fat car tyre and then trim the extra tyre off from edges then mount it in a custom set of folks made by yours truly, would look mad
should have put the gear shift lever on the left side so you can keep your hand on the throttle or find a way to put it between your legs.. Maybe an Automatic Transmission
if you ever want to chat with someone that wont screw ya, organizing a meet up would be cool, id make some out of it stuff if i knew you guys were coming
What else to do huh? Remove rust-paint it,extend gear lever to be on your right or left for easier gear change,mud guards, maybe clutch on hand and also some lighting would be good!!! Don't tear it up please,it has so much potential so muuuuuuch
Needs lower rear end gear ratio or maybe automatic tranny. Locking rear would make it better for off road. Really like it and looks like a lot of fun! Stay safe and I enjoy your vids.
Also you need to replace the lens on your growpro cameras as they have become a bit distorted either that or you are using very cheap fisheye lens, you can see clear lines where the images are not lining up correctly...
LOVE IT! Next needs some lights (get the under-glow going), chuck some Nitrous Oxide in there, maybe also a glowing "fire-Breathing" supercharger? That trike is 🔥🔥
Oh man, the driver's position is too high! Re-do the frame and just have a single seat down low & by the back axle. Then you could drift it. That will keep the weight distribution much lower. And will look WAY COOLER. (Looks too dorky to my eyes) 😃 I'm shocked it can't even spin the tires. That must be one tired Lada engine! Fun stuff!!!!
When you get done playing around with this miraculous vehicle, perhaps you and the boys can convert it to a motorcycle. Once you've accomplished that important project, the only logical next step would be to convert it to a Lada-powered unicycle.
Keep it for a motercycle show do a lil bit of stuff to it to make it awesome looking and it will represent what you all do and stand for and name of your channel ..the more eyes that look at it the more peaple see your channel and boom but its like a rat rod bike .so yes i would keep it together but make it better over time and make it look sick ..it would be cool whith a back of a car on it were ya have a full bench seat in back ..i just see alot of potencial whith it
I suggest to make shifter like in car so its easier and faster to shift and also make gas pedal like on car with that 2 things it will be way more confortable
nice build. put a higher reduction gear in the diff and add a sway bar. that should help with the take off and lean. maybe some paddle tires and a ski up front for the snow.
it'd be INSANE with a ski and paddles setup!
The welding on the frame really contributes to that "You could do this at home" vibe.
why's it stall right away cause it's cold🤣
I have no idea who suggested to put the welding helmet on top of the front fender, but you should give them a promotion based on that alone. It makes the vehicle look so cool. Really nice touch. The steampunk style dorks in America would pay you unthinkable amounts of money for this vehicle 😂
admit it that bike looks like so much fun to drive
Dorks in america?No!
Steampunk is awesome bro. :)
These guys are always so much fun to watch..!
what will he think of next making an ultra-light with a Lada? that would be so cool to see
that is easily one of the coolest things I've ever seen built, it turned out ultra awesome, the only possible change I would make is the back wheels, they're too modern but otherwise it's perfect
Good point about the back wheels, there was something about it that just didn't seem quite right to me and that's it.. although in its favor I would say the welders helmet they mounted over the front fender is an absolutely awesome touch.
6:15 Nice Black Honda Prelude 4th gen!

So people know, Reliants are 3-wheeled cars. If you're non-British, (like me) you might not know. 🙂
He wasn't setting off the car alarms. That was the cars wolf whistling at that sexy trike.
You guy's are awesome thanks for another great video my friend's!
This build is awesome. It's something to keep going with the trike. Thank you for sharing this video. Can't wait to your next project.
This one was awesome . Loved the engineering .. Tie Rods for steering shaft end points .. Perfect! The two ladies going for a ride was fun, they make a cute couple ..
To je fakt dobrý! Zasmál jsem se moc. Jste šikovný. Super, krásnej "peklostroj". Dávám like + sub.

It’s the welding helmet on the front for me brilliant
I love this channel. It proves that motor heads are the same all over!! Mega thumbs up!!!

16:27 When Vlad yells "Ahaaaaa!", then you know something just broke spectacularly :D
Keep it!!
It’s cool!

Move the gear shift more to the front. Safety bar or seat belts in the back. KEEP IT!!! It's awesome!
well done guys. the super trike looks awesome. i wonder though what it would look like drifting out on the ice
love the channel!!! I have an idea!! Heat a pool with a Lada motor or 2 or however many it takes. Use a pool like the one used when you ran an engine underwater. Keep up the great experiments!!!!!
Very cool
It needs Extra WIDE Tires on the Back.., and a rear floorboard, Shifter Linkage to the front , and a Pony Keg on the back for a gas Tank…!
Is the same design of that president bike in idiocracy 🤣 all you missing is the cooler full of malt liquor and big azz gun popping a wheelie🤣🖤
Exelent. You have to keep it and reform it into a snowmobil in the winter. Put a ski in front weel and some kind of tank caterpilar at the back weels 😊😊😊
14:53 haha nice hickies!

Winter? YES! Some studded/spiked tires in the back and a ski in the front and that would be an amazing sled
hi, please try to make
a) a diesel/gas-electric lada. motor-generator-cables, rear axle with electric motor; no gearbox, no prop shaft; or
b) a charged lada with a belt driven rotrex charger. you can alternate a turbocharger into a rotrex charger

Automatic transmission would be nice on that. Or use the cable shift system off a front wheel drive car.
Looks like something from Mad Max, love it
Now take that same trike, put in a nice big V8!
Add a wheelie bar at the back....
110% fun guaranteed!!!!!
This trike really looks like it is fun to drive. Two suggestions: bigger rear wheels and a shifter on the left side of the driver's seat. 😀👍🏻
That was awesome! Great experiment! But he should’ve had put the shifter on the left side! That way he didn’t have to take his hand of the accelerator! That’s crazy!👌😂👍build a body around it! That would look great!
Drag race a full Lada
I think I would route the exhaust through the frame.
No more breaking it off when you bottom out.
9:15 thats one of those invisible throttle cable extenders lol
Now its time for a turbo and some wheelie bars on the back :)
Gotta keep it. It's an awesome build!
Great video guys! Great video, Love it. Keep up the good work. Here's an idea towing capacity or you could do a lota tug of war
I'd say this is the coolest thing you've made from a Lada yet!
Agreed!
Definitely cool, guys. Would be a hoot to see it with lights and registration. Not sure about there, but here that would be street legal with the lights and safety equipment installed.
Very much cool factor here. That thing is great. Spike tire ice donuts.
Make tracks for the rear and a ski in the front and use it in the snow 😁👍 Your videos are the best
Go mudding with that hahaha
It's already a nice rickshaw
love it.. could be shorter length and gear shift between legs may be nicer.
welding helmet turned headlight bucket is a fun obvious idea. get it running better and it'll be great. rear shock top location a little awkward looking \ / .
Id like to see ya all make a pulling lawn tracter extend the front end put a lada engine in front of 2 twin engines from mowers ..so make front end long and put better wheeelsvin back well you got the idea ..just a thought . Godbless
Russian army needs these x 1000 to retrieve from Herson XD
Great build Vlad.....shove an auto gearbox in it ....that'd make it much smoother on pull aways
It wouldn't be as cool though with an auto, it is a bit like a rat-rod
can't auto trans and LS swap everything. It's good as is
Buy a lot of those diamond drill bits or diamond disks for cutting floor tiles. Make them into brake pads
try to make it 3 wheel drive ,a sprocket at the top of the front fork (chain going down to the front wheel) where it pivots and another gear and pinion to CV joint down to transfer case.
Helmets guys, safety first.
Good build. Works really good.
NO IF it was a ''chariot from hell'' it would have two Lada engines joined to become a V8 👍👍that would be COOL man 👍👍
That is one mega cool contraption of a Lada trike! Man I would have fun bombing around the trails in the woods with that trike!🙂👍🙂👍
This is probably the most mad max type vehicle they have made so far
Can you reverse the camshaft, starter, timing. have two engines side-by-side mirrored. Going to their own rear axle
Bring the back seat down or two bucket swivel seats for McLaren type seating. Build a Model T Ford C cab panel van body. Rear area as a parts hauler Not sure you road laws but here it would be considered a motorcycle and require a motorcycle license.
What is the weight of this bike und how much power does this engine have?
Can you make a car with oil going through the heater-core, turn the heater on, and see if it'll keep the car cool without coolant?
no it won't. Coolant runs against cylinder walls from other side, oil don't. It will quickly overheat
Thats what I imagine a bike in MadMax world would look like
It would be so cool to see this riding on the beaches of California 👍
If you really do plan to keep this intact, perhaps you could fit a Lada body for improved driver/passenger comfort on rainy/snowy days.
Looks like you can make that thing into a snowmobile for winter!
Yes!!!
For front wheel, I would have used x2 bike wheels with tyres still on, a spacer between them with connecting rod straight through the centre to connect them then put them inside a big fat car tyre and then trim the extra tyre off from edges then mount it in a custom set of folks made by yours truly, would look mad
Turn it into a snowmobile for the winter months. Great build btw!
I think this is the coolest thing you have made since I have been watching your channel.
I think tank like tracks for the rear for winter. And I hate to say, but I think that rear bench is screaming out for seat belts.
should have put the gear shift lever on the left side so you can keep your hand on the throttle or find a way to put it between your legs.. Maybe an Automatic Transmission
Rickshaw maybe add some sort of canopy so that in inclimate weather you can still use it as well as maybe a headlight and taillights
Nice trike :)
You guys should inflate that front tire, though.
Is there no other place to mount the shift lever on that death trap?
Haha right???!!! Driver's position is way too high. I'd be scared shitless on that thing!
if you ever want to chat with someone that wont screw ya, organizing a meet up would be cool, id make some out of it stuff if i knew you guys were coming
Great for acceleration larger tires or just raise the height of the entire chassis for more off-road capabilities
Pretty cool, needs a left hand shifter and some dirt bike forks.
Nice build guys. Transform it into a snowmobile for winter.
Haha, its got a McPhearson strut live axle! Genius!
What else to do huh? Remove rust-paint it,extend gear lever to be on your right or left for easier gear change,mud guards, maybe clutch on hand and also some lighting would be good!!! Don't tear it up please,it has so much potential so muuuuuuch
You could decorate it for Christmas. Perhaps put some reindeer up front and lights, put a Santa on it and hand out garage54 gifts.
Needs lower rear end gear ratio or maybe automatic tranny. Locking rear would make it better for off road. Really like it and looks like a lot of fun! Stay safe and I enjoy your vids.
Also you need to replace the lens on your growpro cameras as they have become a bit distorted either that or you are using very cheap fisheye lens, you can see clear lines where the images are not lining up correctly...
LOVE IT! Next needs some lights (get the under-glow going), chuck some Nitrous Oxide in there, maybe also a glowing "fire-Breathing" supercharger? That trike is 🔥🔥
May wait till winter put tracks on it too see what it can do.
Could you put dual skidoo-type tracks on the back and a ski on the front for winter???
Oh man, the driver's position is too high! Re-do the frame and just have a single seat down low & by the back axle.
Then you could drift it. That will keep the weight distribution much lower. And will look WAY COOLER. (Looks too dorky to my eyes) 😃
I'm shocked it can't even spin the tires. That must be one tired Lada engine! Fun stuff!!!!
I love it some siding and that would a sweet ride
Another great one! An automatic tranny would make the shifting struggle go away, and maybe some cool LED lighting...
than it isn't rat look any more..
Electric Lada, rewired generator coil for a motor.
MAD MAX VECHICLE

When you get done playing around with this miraculous vehicle, perhaps you and the boys can convert it to a motorcycle. Once you've accomplished that important project, the only logical next step would be to convert it to a Lada-powered unicycle.
Hi guys I'm watching from ireland 🇮🇪, what a beautiful build, well done
Keep it for a motercycle show do a lil bit of stuff to it to make it awesome looking and it will represent what you all do and stand for and name of your channel ..the more eyes that look at it the more peaple see your channel and boom but its like a rat rod bike .so yes i would keep it together but make it better over time and make it look sick ..it would be cool whith a back of a car on it were ya have a full bench seat in back ..i just see alot of potencial whith it
I suggest to make shifter like in car so its easier and faster to shift and also make gas pedal like on car with that 2 things it will be way more confortable
That machine is pretty damned cool!
Would be absolutely nuts to see a fiberglass or plastic body made for it
Nah..
no, needs the rat look
would be good to see the other lads having a go from the start.
Well the front plate [the one that sit right on top of the front mud guard] if anyone notice its is welding mask
