Drift trikes

Most guys out here on the west coast mainly do night runs.

If you're new and plan on building one, you need to check out
USADriftTrikes
They have a forum and with a little searching you can find all your answers there.
 
Also if just want to buy a frame, These are a couple of people in the U.S. who sell them. Some even sell completes with pedals or gravity fed.

He goes by H-Town drifter on USAdrifttrikes forum.
I will be ordering one of his frames in the next week or two for my second trike.

Orangebones trikes is a good facebook site, but they are from another country. They upload pics and vids everyday. Great site just for ideas.

Been a while since I've been in here. Thought I'd ad an update to the drift trikes.

Ouch! My kids still cruise ours down our street every weekend. These are dangerous as we keep pushing ourselves to go faster and do bigger drifts.
When my kids go down a busier windy road I usually follow or lead in my truck so other cars will see me first since the trikes are too low. Still fun as hell though. My trike does have brakes, but only work going forward. Once you spin around it just keeps sliding backwards.

Two riders went head on into a truck in Vermont and our in critical condition. Had to be airlifted out.

Here comes the Ban now.
Now comes the bad and uninformed media to ruin it even more. But looks like Ludlow Vermont is looking to ban the trikes.

There's a motorized one on youtube somewhere.

Why don't you make some sort of rear brake? Some kind of lever with a wear pad on the bottom?
Just a thought.
 
Damn, I miss mine! Sold it before I moved to Washington. Custom frame, go kart wheels in back. Had a blast on it!

Just finished my loaner trike. Disregard the rear wheels they are just on there for testing and going on mine. This one will have HF wheelbarrow wheels till I can afford some more gokart wheels/tires

You got a robot vacuum for that little rug?

Sweeps my entire garage for me. Thing is super awesome, just pick up anything you don't want swept up and let it go to town after you finish welding, sawing wood, routing, grinding, etc.
