That poor old 600 motor having to drag all that extra weight! Needs a 900 or bigger engine really. Looks nicely done though and shouldn't be too hard to swap for something more suited like a 900 or 916 but for that sort of money you could do your own.

Engine size shouldn't be an issue. A 600 has twice the power of an 1100 beetle and is carrying far less weight on a trike.

Gary prob knows about this, he knows most monster trikes.

Does seem a hell of a lot of money.

It would IMO be under powered as a trike - especially 2 up or loaded with any luggage

General rule of thumb is you you need a minimum of 70-80hp for a bike trike

I found the 900ie motor was perfect on slightly lowered gearing. My build set me back around £8000 including bike purchase in 2004
