Re: GZ250 Trike???

That is crazy that anyone would even consider such a thing, that kit is 2,500 dollars and doesn't even come with wheels or tires, or fenders for that matter, so you would have almost as much wrapped up in the conversion as you did in buying a brand new GZ to put it on. Not to mention that even if you didn't pay anything for the conversion, that the GZ barely has enough highway power on its on without adding all that extra weight.


But you still made a very good find as far as GZ aftermarket stuff goes, cause god knows there is not much of it. :2tup:

I doubt very much that the G.Z. has enough power to effectively be used as a trike,although the kit looks interesting.

Re: GZ250 Trike???

Here in Florida, you can get a Trike endorsement on your license that allows you to ride any three wheeled vehicle but not a two wheeled. You must have a motorcycle endorsement for that. The motorcycle endorsement allows you to ride either. We have a lot of old farts here who want to ride a motorcycle but are unable to pass the MSF test to get the endorsement.... so the state came up with the MSF trike classes and license endorsement.

The local classes use the GZ trikes. We have a couple of local companies that do the conversion. Not cheap, but if you want to ride....and have the cash, I say go for it.
