Hey Stuart, saw your thread about triking your XS11. What did you use for a rear axle? The XS's output turns counter clockwise, and US auto rearends turn clockwise, viewing the rear axle from the front. Or did you simply run it up-side-down?

I would also like to know how to make a trike out of an xs 1100, My wife would like to have one and since I have three standards ,it would be something I could do. Later 'Dog

trikes

the fellow i sold my gold wing to triked it he used a Suzuki jeep rear end. He riged up a starter motor on the drive shaft for reverse. Its pretty neat as he runs a body shop and did it all himself................MITCH

Hi, Stuart, it IS a pain in the butt to post pictures, I haven't figured it out yet either. I would appreciate some pics, and you can email them to-rovjer@tds.net- I am mainly interested in how you got the whole thing to drive the right direction. I am guessing that you have the back axle up-side-down. Thanx, rover

wrong email it is rovjer@tds.net The "to" got on it

trike

i will take some more photos tommorow and e mail them.............................i did turn the axle upside down welded up the breather hole and drilled a new one......swaped the brake back plates round and give them half a turn to keep the leading shoe the right way up if that makes sense.......i know some people ive heard of have muddled about inside and turned the crown wheel but i didnt go to that extreme......does any of that make sense to you now........??????????

Makes good sense, turning up side down, always wondered if that would work. I have 3 xs11's, might be a fun project. Please keep me posted on how the gear ratio works out. I will be watching for pics. Thanx much, Rover
