Hello fellow enthusiasts. I first got interested in reverse trikes about 20 years ago when I first saw the T-rex, but fell in love with them when I saw the VW GX3 and Peugeot 20 Cup. But the T-rex was/is/always will be out of my league financially, so we broke up. Then, my cousin wrecks my 2012 ninja 250r, and I'm happy, because I finally have a reasonable opportunity to realize a child-hood dream. The "accident" claimed the fairings and barely bent the front forks. Just enough to not want to rebuild. I have spent the last few months studying other's designs, and still have no idea how I want to approach this. I grew up in a body shop, so I will have plenty of resources. And too many design options. Any and all suggestions and questions are welcome.

Hello, My advice for what its worth is to make a scale model of what is in your mind, start with the bits you know, wheel size, track width,height,seating,bike dimensions etc and just play around with it until it looks right! (when it looks right it is right!!!!) Doing this will save $ in wasted material and then you can measure the model to get the dimensions for the actual build My model is 1:10 scale. So the 4mm wire diameter frame on the model represents 40mm on the actual 2rike.
