Why You NEED to Build a Cheap Drift Trike!! Trike Revival
Vložit
- čas přidán 29. 03. 2020
- Drift trikes are a ton of fun to drift around, they're cheap, and simple to build! We revive this old drift trike that we built in 8 hours, powered by a stock Predator 212cc engine, built from the front half of a bicycle, some Go Power Sports parts, and scrap tubing we found. Why doesn't everyone have a trike?
We reassemble the trike, cut, modify, and re-weld the main frame piece to give the front end way more caster, which makes the trike look and handle way better!
Thanks for Watching!

Ive got a 500 cc VTwin Honda Shadow bike first year for the Shadow 1983 needs restored or made into something cool I would sell or trade on if you guys are interested also got a Baja go kart needs a motor
CarsandCameras you need to make a hood dump for the 370Z!
Straight pipe it
Watch this @ 32:40. It made my day. czcams.com/video/wGrg3ub8GSY/video.html
If you put the handlebar neck facing to the front and tilt the handlebars back a bit it will be even better and more room for the driver...
Forks r wrong way round aswell
@@rach84able Forks are fine, the stem is backward.
It works right? That's what's fun!!
And would have better control
Yeah and it also wouldn’t look like total shit anymore
Its always cool to hear a straight piped car..but to drive one everyday...think twice my friend 👍
my neighbors hate me and highway driving is ridiculous lmao.
Chris Harding yup, luckily there’s about an acre space between me and my neighbors but the drone on highway is awful
Especially those VQs, probably the worst sounding V6 lol
Ive got a straight pipe 2018 ram 5.7 hemi with long tube headers, Mopar cold air intake and hemifever 93octane tune with my diablosport tuner. Sounds like an explosion on a cold start at 530am when i leave for work hahaha
@@chrisharding2813 hahahahaha!!!
No shit, holy shit, I bet it sounds like a damn bunch of explosions!!!!
Now that you cut down the frame it may make sense to flip the stem back forward and angle the bars back towards you. It would give you more arm room.
YESSS!!! for pete's sake fix the handlebars!!
The three wheeler!!!! I used to romp on one back when I had one
I have two running ones like it and a parts one
I just got one like that a Honda atc200e it’s the best thing ever
I had a 110 I got for free out of a field 75$ got it running, I rode it for years but I started my own business and needed money so I sold er
Friendship is very important in times like this.... so is building stuff. Thanks for all you guys do!
Thank you for watching!
Please turn those handlebars around so I can sleep tonight! 🙏🤣
Mine wer backwards too lol i kept wanting to turn them but it just didnt want to work...good to see you buddy👍
It'll be fine
Get a old dirt bike bar , something slim and one piece
hahaha
That's what I was thinking bro
Straight pipe vq's sound like cancer, I'm with your brother here John.
I thought cancer was the silent killer lol
@@shena.b.3313 Not when you straight pipe it
I agree. There's a lot of them in my town and everyone hates them except the owners.
Buddy had a straight piped 350z and he hated it. Don’t do it
@@FoxSock nissan V6 engine, all sound like hot garbage except the VQ40DE found in their pickups.
You guys should add some foot rests to the frame itself, seems like that would make it more comfortable instead of having your feet on the pegs
Like their other one?
@@Judge_Jon yes
perfect timing, Colin Furze is currently doing a now weld drift trike build, so no fancy tools needed. if i had space to ride one i'd be all over it
I built one of these my freshman year of highschool and it’s a blast! It’s a piece of junk tbh, but it runs and it’s better than nothing. Your vids on the trikes are great and they’re giving me a lot of ideas to make mine better. Keep up the great work guys!
Tells his brother to straight pipe his 370z but puts the stock muffler back on the predator engine lol.
My exact thoughts. LOL
the predator would sound better aswell :D nothing nice can be said about the noise that VQ's make :P
Do it lol
Straight piping the 370 will sound Kool for about 48 hrs and whenhe realize u lost a small amount of torque and power u will kick urself
Guys you got me into gokart building i have 14 years and im making a go kart cant wait for a new video you are always the best
"you can do this with a gasless welder" Moments later goes flying off seat still attached to ass. Classic.
Lmao they hadn't welded it at that point.
Lol
Omg i died
U don’t weld a seat on and he didn’t 😑😑😑😑
@@jakechunasamy9642 literally the dumbest comment ever. Are you the authority on garage built drift trikes? I think Norse was just pointing out a funny chain of events, lighten up Francis.
I can't wait to see what you guys are gonna do with that 3-wheeler!
Beside get hurt 😂
@@tstricklin4808 nah you just gotta learn how to lean
@@tstricklin4808 ive been alot more hurt on a decent sized dirtbike, 3 wheelers were considered dangerous back when 50+mph atvs were new to us.
t Stricklin nahhh. That’s a slow one. I’m 13 and ride a 350x sport trike. Now that thing is deadly.
The only thing that makes any atv dangerous is the rider
I just finished my monster Moto 80cc predator swap just thought I’d share, anyways love these videos that your brining back old projects!!
Is it working good I wanna do the same thing
It’s tough to do but it’s way worth it
You missed the Fast and Furious "Ejecto seat cuz" clip moment there....
Both of you have a twin brother 🤣 , you guys are a match made in heaven
This is more back to basics that made you guys great. Thanks again. Stuck at home and it’s raining, good times.
100% agree, I had build one just not motorized, with front wheels pedal, and that was so fun
I miss my drift trike...wish i never sold it...glad i have videos of it tho👍
Cain🖐
Hey nate👋👋 good to see you buddy👍
There is no way to make a VQ sound good. Leave it stock, or put MORE mufflers in it.
shibbypoopalot eh, I disagree, the VQ40DE sounds just fine....there’s less “rice rocket” sound to it...
It makes a lovely sound when it's being crunched
I like the sound of any tt/t vq😁na the vq30 sounds great
@@DadPool_Hyde of course you're talking about a gtr, it better sound good for being godzilla 🐲.
John Gonzales WRONG....GT-R is a VR38DETT, the VQ40DE is the 4.0 in the 2005+ Xterra and Frontier....
I am so glad to see you Maniacs are still at it I've always loved your channel cheers guys and please stay safe
Great to have you guys keeping my sanity
"Its super cheap, about 400 bucks"
$400 isn't cheap for me! Cheap is more like $50.
Well then.... goodluck with that xD
aside from the parts from GPS, you could easily do this for $50, if you put in the effort.
@@cordcd7 stuff is a lot cheaper in America. An old Chinese kids quad bike that doesn't run (and isn't worth repairing) will have $150 on it.
We can get stationary 6.5hp engines for $200 but karting is really only about racing so getting cheap parts is hard as they are all race spec. We don't have the mini bikes or karts they do. I looked at some for my kids and you're looking at $400 new for a Chinese 50cc quad, and $800 for a 6.5hp kart. Anything second hand will be $200 whether it has an engine or not.
@@1one3_Racing Good point, I obviously take for granted the numerous old lawn mowers etc. I see on craiglist or similar around me for free. And in my area of the US, stuff is less likely to be free and if it is, it's usually 90-110% broken.
I agree, $400 isn't cheap. Gotta check Craigslist regularly. Cheap stuff doesn't last long on their, but if you look ever couple hours you'll get lucky eventually. But you have to be a decent mechanic bc most stuff you get cheap won't run.
I got a broken pressure washer for $35, and it had a Predator 6.5hp type engine that ran. Found a gokart chassis for$25(although most are over$200 on clist). I got a 50cc scooter for $50, fixed it up for less than$10, and just sold it for $330. I had days of labor into it though. But as long as you can work on stuff, you'll eventually score.
It's very powerful!
Ah Yes Cooking Food
So when's the 🦞 tail an turbos?
I just bought a house with a garage to finally be able to do small and cool projects!! This is what I’m going to start with!! Me and my son will have lots of fun with this!! Thanks
I just got done building my first drift trike and your rite everyone should have one , i even went so far as putting drift sleeves on my gokart n that is a load of fun to , i think y'all should try that 👍👍
EJECTO SEATO CUZ
Colton Morris zackgoes??
No problems TV. Well originally fast and furious but also zackgoes haha
Johns brother...at the end of the day its yours you do you boo...but im with you dont straight pipe it... nobody wants to HEAR a vq 😂🤣😂 jpjp
StyleFactory DontFit VQs sound horrible with a muffler imagine straight pipe omg horrible 🤦🏻♂️
John should straight pipe the avalanche. That'd be a much better sound. VQ's need a proper exhaust to sound good
I love the Honda ATC in the background. I'm currently rebuilding my 1983 185S from the frame up. Great vid as always and shout out from East Tennessee!
Dang it that looks like fun!! Thanks for the vid, guys!!
Straight piped VQs sounds like a seal being clubbed to death
Maybe flip those bars over now you have the front end st the correct location. I think it will give you a little more control in steering, and get the bars a little further from your knees!
then he has too lean forward too much becaue the handle bar will stick out too much. he could shorten the bars holding the handlebar
Now that really does look like fun!
I've wanted to make one of these for a long time! I should do it finally.
3:20 EJECTO SEATO CUZZZ !!!
Love the drifter cart.
Please don't straight pipe the 370Z!
1. Probably won't have enough back pressure and loose power.
2. Sound terrible
3. There are PLENTY of great aftermarket exhaust systems for that car
IMO
When I was younger I built and slid gravity drift trikes downhills, it was so much fun, sliding tandem with some buddies. I got a bunch of videos from it on my channel. also did the motor drift trike thing, but I upgraded to 4 wheel slides :D
Thank god for go powersports!
Turn the front forks round
Spend real money on a sweet car. Buy a exhaust system. Strait pipes are fer diesels and go carts.
Mike Muzzell also for race cars and pulling tractors and other things
The beginning was the old "ejecto-seato cuz" 😂 ha ha,I love it. The whole reason people invest their time and money into building machines is to take them out and have fun,and you guys definitely have fun on all the awesome toys you build,I call that a success.
John, you have a smart brother. Stealth mode keeps your own ears and the neighborhood happy.
If both your brothers did a video on April 1st tho 🤣
Hells to the yeah!
Baby seat was safer
*I bought this trike so I could play outside with my 3 children. Tricycle **Latest.Bike** is well built and fun to ride. Great purchase overall!*
I've been building one on the side for like six months it's almost done and I've spent 60 bucks on parts so far! Everything has been found or a gift btw a four-wheeler rear end welds right to the crank area of the bike
Never straight pipe a vq stupid loud and doesn't sound good
Kyle Becker if you do it right like performance exhaust and twin turbos it’s a sound no other car can provide
Straight pipe a Mazda fs I dare you 😂
Bro there's a second John!!
Holy shit that was freaking hilarious when he slid right off of the trike with the seat!! that's what u see on the movies.. Then Ike spins so fast like a top and his legs floppn! Love this channel
Finally some old style videos
Cachow🏎💨
He should keep the 370 totally standard......... In ten years time I think a 100% stock 370Z will be a VERY rare car. LOL !
Newer cars arent going to become rare collector cars. All of the technology in these new vehicles pretty much means at some point down the roas therw wont be updates and the shit wont work making the car a worthless piece of scrap just like old computers
I have a 1986 c10 with a 454 in it , that will be very rare in ten years
That's cool be safe out there
Yes! Cars and Camera ejector seat! The newest innovation in karting!
They definitely didn't watch Colin furze 😂😂😂
Leave the 370Z alone. Straight piped VQ37 sounds atrocious.
I had one with a 212 and had Yamaha motorcycle forks looked pretty wicked
Y’all got me into small engines and go karts. i am 14 years old and i post videos on this channel. it’s a fun hobby, if not a bit pricey 😁
I want to see a trike that has enough power to do burnouts like that without drift sleeves on the tires.
Straight pipe....no
Flowmaster or Manga flow...yes
And if its its anything like the Xterra delete the y-pipe
Super cheap, good fun.
Ilike it.
Awesome video, love the random lets chop some stuff up. Solid quarantine project.
DO NOT straight pipe that car! We'll need some clean stock ones around in 10 years...
CashedOutCars why do you say that?
In my opinion the VQ engines don't sound great straight pipe every 350 and g30's do it. It drones and like I said totally my opinion sucks major eggs.
I think everone agrees vqs are obnoxious straight piped, i think he may have been joking
When you think of how to make a proper Drift Trike and works 1st time, Colin Furze is your man.
Super bad ass, I’ve found that by putting feet up on spindles on front tire allows better control, also a 5 gallon bucket makes a great sleeve for rear tires. We ride em on grass and they will last a few hrs of hard abuse.
Why do you copy other peoples content? I know that Colin Furze made a how to bild a drift trike video not long ago.
melope hahahahahahahahahaha this was built years ago. They are reviving it. Screw Collin furze
Ive got the bike parts, been wanting to build a drift trike for yrs....gonna have to get back on that!
Oldschool fans remember that thing.
Nice mod with the angle on that monster front bar. That rake is just what it needed.
and whatever black magic was done to the motor. For testing purposes only...
I would have called the chore caster.. but there is a rake finale for sure. I have fun watching you guys work. ;)
Pure innovation. Drift seat on a drift trike
That is pretty cool
built one. we have an old 50cc quadbike frame with a scrap bmx front end. it looks a mess but wow its fun
I have been wanting to build one
You guys have me and my friend trying to start up a youtube channel building crosskarts in his old garage about the size of your new garage. We both love your content and love your channel.
20x20
That's so awesome I wanna build one
Really cool guys everyone needs to build a drift trike they are sweet and we can all have a drift competition. Would be super awesome 👍
Yeaah! Straight pipes for the Z. There is no such thing as 'too loud'.
Nice Caddy.
My uncle and I watch your vids and picked up an identical 3 wheeler like a week ago!!!!!
im suggesting you flip the handlebars back facing normal as you have more room and you added rake it will handle and stop better nice quick rebuild guys!
I have go carts, dirt bikes, etc. But MAN I NEED ONE OF THESE!!
Nice 360's ike. Keep the xlnt content coming .
Thanks
That thing is rad. I built one just like it for offroad
i used a scooter frame with a ride on lawnmower rear end a 148cc mclane briggs engine and no seat. it was lots of fun!
U guys make me wanna build one
Huge 👍!!! N yes str8 it out!!!
Pretty badass
That's awesome.
you always straight pipe VQ engines. Got to love how VQ engines sound. Ive owned a few VQ's and SR20DET. They both sound amazing straight piped.
I have a couple salvage ninja 250r that I didnt know what to do with until now....maybe even a powered Green Machine bigwheel. I loved mine as a kid.
I recomend putting some straight drag bar style bars or low rise dirt bike bars. I have them on my drift trike. Makes it more controllable.
When I was a kid my front wheel on my big wheel cracked and broke. We didn't have money to buy another and I don't think I ever got over it. So I'm going to build one of these and finally ride my big wheel once again!
I have that same silver chevy avalanche. Also you might get more get up and go if you put smaller tires on it. Adjust the carb a bit also
Hey Guy got my shirt and I love it! Thanks for the Signing the stickers!
Your welcome! Thanks for the support
I am actually building one, 7hp pretador clone engine and completely bolted together since I can't weld. Stoked on how it's just turning out
Same just bought a 7hp 212cc Chinese engine hope it works, how did your trike turn out?
Just recently got rid of my drift trike. Traded for a bigger version of your "pugly" kart.... looks cool tho, brings back memories.
love the vid planing on building one with my grandpa
The big red in the back😍
