Cheap Trikes! The XT-582 EZY

IMG_5265_XT-582_tundra-2-600x347The EZY is a modifed XT-582 Tundra. To get the cost down we are offering the EZY with less options than the Tundra version. We have taken away the intake and after silencer, the Wheel spats and are using a simpler modified shock absorber system.
