Default Big Wheel or Fat Cat

Someday I want to get a 350X and put a single rear tire on it. Everyone I mention that to thinks I'm nuts, but they've never ridden a FatCat or BigWheel.
how could you do that?




i was thinking, 350X motor in fat cat frame i dont think it would be that difficult to fit in

what do you think

the atc 250r & 350x's,=there was one company in late 80's that had conversion kit's to make them 2-wheeler's. i have an old dirt wheel's mag with the test ride. they said it was a "land missile".

I think it would just be a matter of building a new swingarm to accept a wide rear tire, and coming up with a new rear fender.

Inlaw said he might consider selling his Fat Cat. He said he would consider $1200 taking for it because that is what he paid for when it was new. He also said that he likes having it in his garage incase he wants to ride it. It only has 800 miles on it. I really think when it comes right down to it he wont sell it. They are fun to ride. Quite a bit different from a regular mototrcycle.

Here I am! I started this thread and currently have a BW200.
Its fun to ride and gets alot of looks. I have always had dirt bikes but got a 4 wheeler because
all my friends have them. The Big Wheel lets me be on two wheels and still be compatible with
the ATVs on trail rides. When it wears me out I get my Wolverine.
Check out the Big Wheel Group at Yahoo. I am a member and have posted some pictures.
If anyone wants to do a conversion do some research on the Missel Kit it was the Stuff
back in the day!
