*I bought this trike so I could play outside with my 3 children. Tricycle **Latest.Bike** is well built and fun to ride. Great purchase overall!*

That 212cc engine will take you faster than you should ever go. Trikes like that are very unstable when making turns. Be careful. Also the engine will last longer and be more reliable if left stock.

Amazing good build

Years ago we used a belt and two pulleys on our gocarts, and no clutch. The engine was on a hinge with a handle to push down to tighten the belt with a return spring.

That front fender needs some attention, I'm going to do a trike-build with three 49cc engines one day soon, nice trike, and thanks for sharing.

I would love to see a step by step build on this trike.

good setup i am busy with a goped 49cc 2 stroke engine

I'd love to see longer stronger triple up front with suspension bigger tire as well tilt it back a lil. Make it more stable and a smoother ride. Cheers

Cool bike!

Great build bro! Maybe look into building a springer front end they are pretty easy to build with a few tools that you obviously have and you can use springs from the shocks on cheep mountain bikes for the suspension. Not to mention the style points 😎

Fantastic

Good stuff! I'm currently doing the same project with a Honda GX engine. Really hoping the engine will idle with a clutch to keep it as cheap as possible, since I got the trike and engine for free.

Phat tires on that trike build would be the bomb

Omfg that sproket weld has more popcorn than the local movie theater!🍿🍿🍿😂😂😂

Nice

I have a Schwinn 3 wheel trike,it even has a basket on the back,i was gonna give it away,gonna keep it now and motorize it lol.

That's cool

Very sturdy, and easy to clean.Excellent product

Do you have a video of the build and how you made that work?

The only thing I would change is remove the oil sensor, and use heavy duty back rims. Try spoked wheelchair rims. And wider tires. 👍🏾👍🏾

Nice build bro I’ve been thinking about doing a trike for my channel also only one I haven’t done how you like it so far bro

How did you set up the sprockets? I am building the same thing but I am running into a problem making a hub with the three sprockets for the motor/pedal and then main drive? Biggest issue is how to connect the larger sprocket to the hub?

I had to put a 60 tooth on my trike, but I only got 20 inch BMX tires on back. Still does 52 mph and wheelies if I dont lean forward at launch & keep weight on the pedals. 10 tooth front, no torque converter. Sprocket mounted on left rear wheel.

Hey its a great build, how bad is the vibration, my MD200 mini bike vibrate like crazy.

The wind only decides to blow when you start talking lol

Sup dude. Amazing job! Do you have a parts list by any chance?

Im literally buying parts for this, began about 2 months ago. Is this a conversion kit trike? im planning on useing a conversion kit to make my electra rat rod cruiser into a trike, mainly because of the differential the conversion kits have. Good to see something like im building in action. Can we please get a parts list as well as a video on how you put this beast together?

hey man I’m working on my own project I’m see if u could guide me to on how to make my own to ride as smooth as yours , it would really help out man nice work

Putting together a trike myself need tips on how to mount the predator... I bought the 5 1/8 in by 12in mounting plate did I even get the right one

Nice I was thinking about getting me 212 or 420 I'm not sure yet

I'm tryna get mine setup with the motor mounts and chain and throttle cable then it should be mint

Can you tell me what model coaster you ran and a better picture of it

Le travail ne pas finir ne pas des mortusseures à l'arier à l'or je tu dis ça 6/10

im fixing to drop a predator 212cc in mine.. my trike is I dentical to yours,the only thing im going to mod is the front end.. going to rake it out some and add a home ade springer front end on it with some extra disc brakes ..

Can you provide a parts list for the chains and sprocket and speed trigger. I know the motor is from harbor freight was just interest in the rest of the parts. Thanks

Where did you get the throttle grip from?

How fast dose it go

do they all shake in the front? i got one and it does

What’s the lowest cc recommended for a tricycle? 49?

Hey man me and my buddy were actually going to do this exact same thing with and identical tricycle so its cool seeing that someone has successfully done it. I have a couple of questions that I hope you can answer for me about this build... 1) how did you solve this rear axle issue, meaning did you just leave the rear wheels independent like it came stock or did you have to install (or create) a new different axle that allowed for power to transfer to both rear tires? 2) and if you didn't mess with the rear axle(s) at all because there is power only going to the rear right wheel do you feel it pulling to the right at all while riding? Thanks again for posting this man, very cool.

Can this be applied to a Swinn Meridian? How is the sprocket connected to the trike?

Do you have a tutorial that how ti build it?

So what is the max speed ?

What did you buy those parts

Nice trike bro! I’m interested in getting a trike project going for my son. He’s 14 do you have any advice? He’s never operated anything so what engine do you think is best for him? Thanks from Nick and Conner Niagara Falls Canada

Hi is the trike still running? I am about to finish up my Schwinn trike. 212cc to 44T . Gonna be Hell to stop.

Can you please tell how did that????

My 200cc honda 3 wheeler is a hand-full. I bet this is a riot.

U gotta cut the spring on the centrifugal clutch to make it idle.. I know it’s to late but for your next build

O hell no. That things gonna flip

Duh your in the LA River Basin? On a death trap that's illegal especially in California? Good place for it.

Wind vs sound

Los Angeles has that huge canal and I never see any water in it

👍

how did you get your bike to idle like that with mine as soon as I start it takes off and the wheel starts to spin

Nice job pal. I'm planning on building one too but a hybrid with a electric front wheel . Does it handle pretty good off pavement?

prices?

how come no one say it yet ?? ur gear ratio is wrong and by now am pretty sure u see ur belt burning ... and ur torque converter , Clutch at the same speed as centrifugal ... so if ur bike didnt stop or unclutch propely ... ur issue was maybe inside the clutch itself keep going nice project

Only reason it wouldn't isle was your clutch was worn out. And you probably let it heat up too much. In which the sprigs get heated and worn then eventually are always engaged fully. (can't idle)

I'd like to get an electric one and run a drive motor to the front tire, probably an 80cc 2smoke then it would be AWD and not have to carry the heavy engine in the trunk. Don't get me wrong I'm sure it is fun, but that thing looks terrifyingly unbalanced and will probably flip the first time you take a hard turn. Be careful.

is this the tricycle conversion kit if not do you think that setup will work

I didn't see the speed it went ???

Who sells torque converter?

Granny chopper :D

Please list website where you got it. Also brand name of bicycle. Thanks!

Runs good. Any one know if these Predator Engines use a plastic camshaft? If I build my own I think I would design a rear disc brake. This trike goes, but quick stops? Safety first.

I want to buy my elderly mother one to ride to store and post office in small town.

good thing there was no wend.

Dude👍🏼Cool Build. but johnny law aint gonna let you ride it publicly without a Motorcycle License,Helmet,Lights and Registration. now if you live outside city limits and it's country roads. Save your money and by an old tractor w/grader blade and Advertise farm lane leveling. then drive it to work everywhere.

Well if i had it my way i would drop a 420cc engine with a 7 speed trike. Or a 100cc engine from bike berry or something if i was building a motorized trike.

Do you have trouble turning corners?

No issues with assembly for me kzfaq.infoUgkxHL1v1R3NE5x4KiYfyt8dnQmyNYz7qi5L but I could see where some might benefit from using an experienced bike assembler/mechanic. I'm an older rider starting back after a 10 year break. This bike exceeds my capabilities and has been easy to get comfortable riding. I'm mostly on easy trails with almost no street riding and have not been disappointed with the performance of the bike. My fitness level is far below what I previously rode with and because of that the mileage is going on the bike slowly. While I'm losing weight slowly, the bike seems to tolerate my 220 pounds just fine. The bike has been used by several family members ranging from 5'5" - 5'9".

How fast does it go? And how is it on inclines

If I was you I would get some kind of cover for that belt bc the last thing you want is an ass whooping from your own bike trust me I've had a clutch explode with that engine it's not pretty

I think it's a good try. But it doesn't seem safe, you can hear ahead, you can't control it. The engine is too big and heavy. Tri-bike is an insecure device.

Whats the big deal with speed with everyone. Especially on a trike.

❌❌❌ I have 2 Schwinn Meridian Tricycles I would love to sell! Love this guy’s engine on a trike, just not this lightweight Bike that compares to the same weight as the Schwinn Meridian, very Dangerous! I’m in South Florida and even mildly rough sidewalks with the most padded cushioned seats will crack your nut’s! 🤨 I weigh 165 lbs and peddling at a moderate pace and gently turn and depending on which turn I make, one of the rear tires lifts off the ground. If you try aggressively pedaling and turn the bike will flip. This build was demonstrated on a straight line on a level elevation. Notice he didn’t demonstrate doing a turn. I can’t imagine the weight and powerful Predator engine on these light framed tricycles even on smooth elevation’s, unless you have great Life Insurance. These bikes were manufactured for lightweight use, not installing additional equipment. Adding heavy clutches, steel engine mounts plates, engine, extra sprockets, chains and Converter. But with heavy frames and fat boy tires this would be my only way to invest in this type ride. My bikes are like new give me a call I’ll make you a deal, but wouldn’t recommend putting aa engine on them, unless you like living on the EDGE and having good life insurance for your loved one’s.🤣🎉

Single shaft fixed to rear wheels, not practical. Always wheels will bend

What?

Shortage of camera

Death Trike

Buy a straight pipe and put on it better put some stiffeners on that frame it'll break buy a Mikuni carburetor and put on it and a air cleaner my mini bike will smoke you

Why didn’t you just go right down to the axle shaft and illuminate the original jack shaft????
