Looks like I came to the right place to talk trikes!!!:headbang:

I was wonderin if any of you have retrofitted suspension under the rear so as to be like a YTZ 250,

If so, what does it take, any pictures would be very grateful

thanks

welcome to the board! trikeaholic has installed an original rear suspension kit on his yt175. It's not like a tri-z setup but it's better than nothing. :D
