tri-z 250 project... 4 stroke power????
 

blew up my yelllow tri-z at the beach a while ago.

sooo.... i'm going to put the motor of my streetbike on it... its a XJ600 yamaha "seca II" motor. 61hp stock, has header and muffler...

gunna be fun project and cool trike.

i already took the tri-z down to the frame and painted it, and i have the motor out of the bike. maybe this weekend i can start working on the frame of the tri-z to fit the motor.

hmt project is not out of the question here, ive been having thought of a seca turbo blow through carb setup

Re: tri-z 250 project... 4 stroke power????
 

interesting...

Re: tri-z 250 project... 4 stroke power????
 

thats pretty cool!!! have you tried to test fit the motor in the frame yet? are their going to be any major fitment issues?

Re: tri-z 250 project... 4 stroke power????
 

yes it doesnt fit

the frame has to be extended in the front

Re: tri-z 250 project... 4 stroke power????
 

dibs on second ride....lolz

you better call me up when you finish it and take it out for a test ride!!!

speaking of that...we need to go riding...i'm finally done with baseball so i got too much free time

Re: tri-z 250 project... 4 stroke power????
 

can't wait to ride it

Re: tri-z 250 project... 4 stroke power????
 

theres the dog :)

Re: tri-z 250 project... 4 stroke power????
 

...cool idea but it seems like a lot of work for a 61 hp motor imho

Re: tri-z 250 project... 4 stroke power????
 

johny will deffinatly have a hard time keeping the front end down thats for sure :y

Re: tri-z 250 project... 4 stroke power????
 

it has 30 something hp stock i think

so double the power. plus just the sound of the 4 banger will be awesome :)

Re: tri-z 250 project... 4 stroke power????
 

4 strokes suck, 2 stroke for life!

Re: tri-z 250 project... 4 stroke power????
 

Burkej62, I have a feeling your about to be banned?

Re: tri-z 250 project... 4 stroke power????
 

look into an extended swing arm ;)

Re: tri-z 250 project... 4 stroke power????
 

lol, that looks like something they welded up in Junkyard Wars on the Discovery Channel. Ran 11 seconds in the 1/8 mile.

Re: tri-z 250 project... 4 stroke power????
 

my china tools arc welder blew up in my face and shot flames out the side. i was making good progress too :(

i decided to use part of the frame off the motorcycle. i might have had the frame all welded up tonight if that f-ing welder didn't explode.

Re: tri-z 250 project... 4 stroke power????
 

Could you use the turbo kit from the seca 650 turbo? Just in case trikes werent already dangerous enough.

Yamaha 3wheelers FTW

Re: tri-z 250 project... 4 stroke power????

Re: tri-z 250 project... 4 stroke power????
 

wow thta thing is gonna be fun when done.. lookin good so far.

does this motor have a significant amount of more weight compared to the tri-z motor? or is it basically the same?

Re: tri-z 250 project... 4 stroke power????
 

looking good man.. :6 :6 :6 :6

wave at the Raptors and 450's when you fly by them...

Re: tri-z 250 project... 4 stroke power????
 

it weights more, this motor is very fing heavy but the damn tri-z motor was pretty damn heavy too.

im sure this motor weighs more though, it was a pita to move around

Re: tri-z 250 project... 4 stroke power????
 

The single hole two stroke weighed A ---- TON less than the 4 does...

Re: tri-z 250 project... 4 stroke power????

Re: tri-z 250 project... 4 stroke power????
 

Do you have any plans in the future to turbo it??? Even nitrous, them motors love nitrous!!!!!!

Re: tri-z 250 project... 4 stroke power????
 

I bet I can wheelie it better than johnny


I am trying to talk him into letting me ride it first, that would be sweeeeeeet

Re: tri-z 250 project... 4 stroke power????
 

seca turbo pressurized carb setup

Re: tri-z 250 project... 4 stroke power????
 

right now im welding up the frame, going to grind down some of the welds. and paint the thing. and it'll be pretty close to moving.

i think i will get it running this weekend. i hope, i might have to buy a twist throttle for it, not sure if the one off the bike will fit over the handle bars. but i'll think of something. i could at least start it w/o a throttle.

here is a couple pictures.

it almost looks like this engine could've came in the tri-z. it fits really well. and the frame doesn't really look all custom f-ed up and wierd.
