No plans or drawings I'm afraid. The only snaps I've got of Gypsy & Doro's trike are these. Any use? It's basically a widened standard swingarm, built by Alex Windrush, ex of 100% Biker magazine. I think he covered it in the mag as a feature trike. Anyone got the back issues? Title: Re: Kwak Gt 750 tRIKE Post by: Manky Monkey on May 29, 2008, 06:35:41 PM .

Title: Re: Kwak Gt 750 tRIKE Post by: BikerGran on May 30, 2008, 01:38:09 PM Mine's a GT550 - almost exactly same as a 750 just a tad smaller. It's got a Reliant axle shortened one side so the propshafts match up, and uses the original bike suspension.
