Installing a Frankenstein Old School Trike Kit - Turn Your Bike Into a Trike in MINUTES!

Mike shows us how quick and easy it is to install a Frankenstein Old School Trike Kit from Frankenstein Trikes!
Unlike many other trike kits, our Frankenstein Old School Trike Kit is BOLT ON! Other trike kits may require you to make sure the rear axle is centered with the bike, make sure the drive chain or belt is aligned properly, and also require you to weld it in place without any instructions.

Once we get our hands on the DNA rear axle, it is disassembled to its individual components and inspected, but we don’t stop there.
The axle tubes are separated from the differential housing halves and we remove the original mounting brackets and install our own patent pending mounting brackets, which we weld in place.
During reassembly the axle tubes are pinned to their respective differential half. Next the axle housing is coated in an industrial rated paint for long life.
After the paint dries, we install a new grease fitting in the differential, grease the differential, and reinstall the brake rotors and calipers using our new brake caliper brackets, which also pull double duty as the mounts for the fender brackets.
The rear axle and swing arm kit comes with: one modified rear axle assembly, one swing arm specific to your bike, the required axle to swing arm mounting hardware and blue Loctite, all necessary brake fittings and hoses, pre-greased differential with upgraded grease fitting, and one tube of bearing grease for lubing the axle bearings before riding.
Ultimately, we felt it needed more, so we are including ten M12x1.5 conical seat lug bolts, and a set of fender brackets!
*Fenders, wheels/tires, and fender bracket mounting hardware not included.

WOW! Wasn't that easy and turned out very nice. I had to paint the swing arm and rear axle for my Fat Boy trike build. I guess that's what I get for buying it off eBay but I did save a nice chunk of moola. I am not complaining and what else does an old retired and disabled Jarhead have to do. L.O.L. Right! Just the same it was still fun and easy to put together. I am in the process of making fender brackets for the shorty fenders that only cover 1/4 of the wheel. So far it's turning out nice with a 3 degree rake and I lowered the ass end 2 inches. I will be sending pictures when I am all done. Thank You!

Can you throw one on a Softail and show us?

[@graemebowyer4901]

Looks very easy, but do you do kits for bikes other than HD ?

[@frankensteintrikesusa]

Our Frankenstein Old School Kits are only available for older (Pre 2000) Harleys, but our standard Frankenstein Trikes Hot Rod Kits are available for most Harleys and a few other models like the Yamaha Roadstar. Check out our website, www.frankensteintrikes.com for more info on availability.

Meu endereço é no Brasil, estado Rio de Janeiro. Seria possível me enviar o kit sem as rodas com pneus. Ficaria mais em conta e eu as compraria aqui na minha cidade, obrigado.

[@frankensteintrikesusa]

@@netocarlos3955 Yes, we sell as much or as little of the trike kit as you want. Minimum would be getting the swingarm and rear end. Send us an email to [e-mail] and we can give you a price on shipping.
