Home Built Reverse Trike Project Gets it's Tire Change Finished. CBR 600
Ойын-сауық
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.
Has anyone ever told you , you are brilliant. It blows my mined the things you make ,keep up the good work bud!!
You do good work, and your fabricating skills are excellent. Don't best yourself up about the electronic issues. Thanks for the videos
Loved the split ring lathe fixture for machining the sprocket bore - great work!
This video was about 100 times more interesting than the title implied. grin. Thanks for all of your videos.
The editing on this video was excellent. You're doing such a great job, bro. I could watch your builds all day!

Por favor me explica como resolveu o movimento de re pois eu vi num vídeo que vc entra na sua garagem
A quality coarse roughing end mill will speed things up nicely on the rotary table. I also suggest a larger surface area for the rear swing arm pivot bracket.
We have been waiting for this thing to come back forever!!!!!!!!!!
You could build a sprung tensioner that'd ride the chain at perfect tension through the motion of the swingarm easy. This thing is getting awesome.
I have to tell you Chris, you are quite talented! love your channel and glad to see you got almost half a million subs. you make look easy and i really enjoy watching the machining and making parts that you cant buy elsewhere.
awesome project - much respect for making most of the parts from scratch
Your builds are getting more and more impressive. 👍
Love the project. Beware the coolant at operating temperatures. A drip becomes a stream or worse real fast and it melts skin.
Looking great! Love watching you machine parts, you got the skills!
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.
dude you are so talented ! i could see in the future you having a company as big as Polaris or something like that !! awesome to watch !
Very nice work ! Seems you are very talented the trike has a great look about it. Thanks for sharing your video and some of your skills at fabrication.
I've been watching this build from the start. One of my favorite projects. 👍 Edit: Nice teaser at the end!
You, sir you are my true inspiration someday I wanna have my own workshop where I can work on projects like these.
You sir..are a genius. I wish I had half your fabrication skills. Great job man
by far my favorite channel of this type on YT. Look forward to the next video!
Great video today👍 Those carbs need setting up , balance carbs and air screw adjusted ... Really enjoyed tonight's episode 👍👍
Just watching you mill and work puts a smile on my face keep it up.
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.
Man your builds and skills have gone crazy from homemade mini bikes to this amazing. You should check laws on making it street legal that would be cool

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 .

Love the project. From what I see there are still some things to be tweaked. But I am gonna be here for it.
its always good to have your bowls clean. there is this girl i call time to time. she does a great job at leaving my bowls clean. nothing left in them.
Love the Rockin Music you always play great rock guitar stuff.. PLUS YOUR WORK IS AMAZING !!

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?
You are something special I used to dream about building stuff like that but I don’t think I am talented enough you are phenomenal keep up the great work
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..
😂😂😂👍👍🤘🏻🤘🏻 Like how you don’t hide your mistakes.

Bravo dude! The trike has came along great. I’m jealous.
Really cool build, I could see it all junked up and in a Mad Max movie. keep it up!
Really pleased to see this build nearing completion, its one of my favourites. 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

And the pivot point as close to output sprocket centre as possible to stop that chain slapping the swing arm?
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.

It looks like this one could benefit from simplifying that wiring harness. Chopping it up and trimming the fat might solve some of those electrical issues.
For the rear chain slack, install a idler spring to take up the slack when the eheel goes up and down.
Aight 1 am in the morning here in philippines finishing my schoolwork while watching this ive been waiting for these
Nice work. It is a good idea to mount the fuel pump lower than the tank. These pumps are sometimes pusher pumps than sucking pumps.
Man I love that build!!! Was you planning on painting it and selling it or keeping it? I loved how long that video was too I know editing something like that takes forever but we’re very appreciative lol
You are an excellent fabricator. I want one of these cool trikes since I’m missing my left leg from a motorcycle accident. So Cool!!!!! Thanks for these terrific videos, cheers!
How can someone be so skilled? Hats off and thanks for the good video!🙂
Your welds are really looking killer man🤘🏼
This build is my favorite from you. Please keep improving on it and make it street legal
I hope these tips come in handy for you I love your builds keep up the good work (max) down under
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.
Love it! Should be a blast out on the road!
Coolant expands when it get's warm and you'll need to put an expansion tank to collect the overflow so it can suck back into the radiator when it cools down. It doesn't necessarily mean it's overheating when it start's spitting out.
Fantastic job, bro! A big hug from Brasil!
That looks like some serious fun looks pretty badass too👍
So glad I found this channel. I'm sure you already worked this out, but looks like the pull of the chain is pulling the swing arm down.
Wow! The engine sounds like a Crossplane R1. So good!!!!
Love the socked foot carb installation method.
Nice to see this thing rolling on its own power and kinda sad that you will get rid of it but im sure what ever you come up with wont dissapoint,decides im stocked on that awd build
Some fancy work today. Well Done!
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.

Excellent tip. Or use an old spark plug boot.
Awesome build bro Absolutely sick 🔥👍✌️ Yeah it would help a lot if you hook up the fuel lines etc 😂 With everything you have going on it's not hard to forget a few things Main thing is you figured out and never gave up 👍
Bro you got some skills. All of your builds are badass I like the motorcycle engine carts you build..
Loving the build. Lowering that idle should get rid of the lawnmower idle sound.
It does sound like a lawn mower, but a really expensive lawn mower xd Hell yeah, I love this project, looks really cool and different, keep it up and thank you for these amazing videos, every time you upload, I stop what I'm doing and watch your new video :)
Very nice design and build. I like what you are doing.
Love the awesome machine work the music is cool too 😎its all good Chris mistakes only makes us smarter 👍
It's the coolest and funniest project of yours by far lol
Congrats man,happy for you.
Maybe one day you can friction weld some items. 😎 ....Man, you seriously need a plasma table. ....Can't you just use the engine for the title/registration? Then it's a road going vehicle.
I think that would be great right now…33°C in the northern woods of BC, Canada….cheers!
You can always run your own new wires to the fuel pump, fuse it with proper amperage at the battery and install your own manual switch if you don't use a key on positive to trigger a relay. Good work though
You are TYTAN of work ! Great project, like always thumbs UP
The damper on that rear shock is shot... it's going to bounce and have issues with traction. Always love the content. Keep em coming.
Marty and Moog would be proud of that foot shot on the carb reinstall. I think I would bypass the harness and install a new fuel pump relay and wiring independent of that mess you inherited.
this is my fav of all your builds
Wow I just find it crazy how much work you put into making just the brake rotors!! How come you always build them from scratch rather than using any used ones you have and building an adapter for that? Just curious. Love all your work, keep it up!!
your driving up the driveway clip was amazing
Great video! Looks amazing!
creative knowledge, complete equipment, abilities are there, fantastic, amazing, cool, successful boss
Need to add a catch can, as water is expanding and constantly loosing it on the road, when it cools it goes from catch can back into radiator, also throw a thermo fan on the back of your radiator, should resolve your overheating problems, but what an amazing machine you have created here man! Good job mate! Love your engineering skills , keep those projects rolling man!!
You're one onto it dude man.
This is my favorite project on all of KZread
When you are using random shock/springs here is something to consider. There is more to the stiffness than spring wire diameter. The amount of coils and thier diameter is also a big factor. Imagine the spring unwound as a straight piece of wire. If you have a shorter piece of wire it's harder to bend. So a tighter wound coil(less overall length in the spring wire) will be stiffer than a larger diameter one with the same wire and number of coils. Tge same reason a coil spring becomes stiffer when you cut them.

They don't become stiffer when you cut them, you only get that feeling as a placebo effect. Physics says you're wrong.
@jasonbirch1182

@@FarmerFpv bullshit. What's easier to bend a 3 ft or a 4 ft piece of wire? You missed physics class. Longer lever easier to bend. A wound spring is still a lever, just a different shape. When you cut a wound spring it is getting shorter in overall wire length. It is in turn harder to bend and stiffer. Two springs of the exact same height and wire diameter, same wound diameter. If one has less coils spaced further apart it is a shorter piece of wire and therefore stiffer. Trust me, I've been studying suspension design/geometry and building/tuning my drift car for 4 years. It's a one of one car no one makes parts for, I built and modified every piece on it myself. The easiest way to stiffen the spring is by installing blocks between coils. When they can't compress it has the exact same effect as cutting a coil off without lowering it. I cut 2 coils in front and got the desired ride height, and it stiffened it considerably then I measured the distance between the coils and made nylon blocks that snap in. 3 blocks on each coil to keep them from collapsing uneven. I have two sets of 3 on each side. The spring was 10 coils and it's now essentially a 6 coil spring 40% stiffer. The dead coils play no part in the spring rate of the rest of the spring.
Love this build
you gotta realize this is one of your best/most inventive/inspired build....
A big thumbs up for you bro well done keep it up.💪
Can’t wait to see it ride the road
On the chain sprocket you can put a side guide to keep the chain in place.
I hate trikes, but love your "can do" fab from scratch. Great stuff.
A piece of garden hose is great for fishing your spark plugs out and idle down a bit so the gears will engage better (max) down under
Dude; . . . I love your zeal and you're very entertaining but man oh man, you are a piece of work ! . . I had my fingers crossed that you had put oil and coolant in that fine engine before starting it - CHEERS !
Nice to get a full video.
I agree with the cbr 1000 engine thought. I'd watch those episodes too.
I just watched this , great project 👍
I find it useful to use a 1/4 " ratchet. You can't easily over tighten the plugs then. Mind you I'm pretty heavy handed have broken and striped many nuts & bolts
As for my opinion, the chain needs some spring loaded roller on the upper side to keep the tension when the suspension moves and to prevent the touch of the upper part of the rear arm by the chain. Maybe am not right but think so. Thanks for the video.
Awesome informational educational video experience Y'alls God Bless Ya 🙌🙏
the talent this man has it crazy to even comprehend 🤯
