Hello fellow trikers, Looking for pearls of wisdom for future build , I currently ride an Ural wolf trike, which is ok but not exactly sleek. What I have is an Suzuki sv650s which I know I will never ride again. My plan was to reverse it, I would like to still ride as motorcycle setup, so would like an can am spider setup. Is there any plans that you know off? I was thinking of a car subframe for the steering gear and maybe a independent front suspension setup. Based In Lincolnshire England . I would need to get an engineer to build frame for me as my expertise is fairly limited. Thanks in advance |

Badger, Welcome to the forums. We have a few real good builders on here but it has slow times when a member may not come on for a day or two. So ask a question but please have patience and you should get an answer. That I know of there, is not a direct bolt on kit for the Suzuki SV650. And you want to make a "Sit ON" and not a "Sit IN" trike so that may make it harder to find a kit. I am sure someone in the UK has taken a Focus or Escort frontend and grafted it on a motorcycle. Good luck.

Welcome Badgerwolf
I have not come across a kit that has handle bars like you are looking for.
Inevitably in the reverse trike world you always end up designing and building what you want !

Badgerwolf, you could try to see if member Endeavor has a kit that would fit the SV650. He has not been on here for over 10 months but he has an Ebay account. I will look for it. His web page is here: ido-endeavor.com/ |

Thank you both for your replies, that endeavour link is exactly what I was looking for. I found another kit which is the scorpion (not grinall) . Strange that its very common in America for sit on reverse trikes ? Thinking about it my subframe idea would work, I suppose a small fiat front end would suffice, just need ifs as well. |

Just to update, endeavour only fit in America and will not give plans due to pattern, will try the crossbow and see if that gets anywhere?
