Ok so I found the filter. What a son of a bitch to get to! Had to pull my right side plastic off to get to it. Still can't get it off. Putting a new one in will be an SOB too as the line from the tank to the filter is difficult to get to unless i take more plastic off and that'd be even more trouble.

Is this a part I could pick up anywhere or must I order it? The filter that is.

Yes that looks like my fuel pump. The tank is below the carb.

Ok guess I dunno what I'm looking for. Only thing I see that should be in line with the fuel system is a round metal device with what looks to be one input from the fuel tank and two out going to the carb. I'm guessing fuel pump? If so should the filter be further under the trike? What should I be looking for?

Looking for the location of the fuel filter/s on a PST150-11 trike.
Oh on a side note, can anyone link to a K&N filter for these? The one I ordered isn't what I think I wan't.... it's a mesh bag is what it looks like with elastic on one end.

The axle hasn't made the noises since the last time I had the gear box apart. But then i've only ridden it maybe 80 miles since then. My insurance ran out and I haven't gotten it back until recently as it's been too hot to want to ride anyways. I'm not sure where it is leaking oil. I have a suspicion that it is where the carb goes into the block if that makes any sense but again, with me not being able to get it running, I can't tell. I ordered a K&N filter that should be here this week sometime. Once it gets here I'll see what happens.

So, I'm tired of working on my 150. I swear it's one headache after another. I just want to take it to a shop, have them fix it all back right, and pay afew hundred just to be done with it. So, does anyone know of any shops in texas that will work on the roketa/icebears? the closer to waco the better.
Currently the air filter broke off, the thing still leaks oil, and I'm unsure if the popping axle issue ever got resolved. I tried putting the filter back on but no luck. Tried to start it and dead battery, hooked my jump starter to it and started it, ran for about a minute, then died. repeted attempts to start it run for 5 seconds or so then die.
Honestly it's been a long run of little things breaking that are just piling up. I miss riding it but I simply don't have the time to spend hours and hours not to mention the money to go hunting parts. Easier just to get someone to fix it all back right, pay a fee, and get back to riding.

I've got an icebear 150cc trike that I need to get insured. I had geico but my now ex screwed that up. Was 15 a month. I'd like to find something similar. Maybe I'm doing something wrong but all my online quotes are for 70+ a month. My pickup is only 54! I've got a pristine driving history with no accidents, no tickets, a class A cdl, and an msf course. Any suggestions?

Title says it all. Is there a way to calibrate the speedometer on these icebears?

Still not messing up. It's still blowing oil though from somewhere and leaking it. However it only leaks when I've been riding it so only when hot.

Yeah I'll try that. So far it hasn't done it again. Rode the 18 miles into work and it did fine. I'm hoping all is well and I can drop the 50 on those new gears.

Lol actually I was a dumbass. I had the hub on backwards. Why I haven't messed with the bear all week cause I been too tired when I get home. However! I got it on right, fired it up for the first time in over a month. Maybe even 2. Cranked right up, let it run an warm up hoping it would start jumping. It didn't. So i took it on a 4 mile ride or so. Nothing. I'm gonna ride it in to work in the morning and see what happens. If it starts it's crap I'll get it on tape. If the 20 or so miles to work don't start it nothin will.

So I'm still stuck with the original problem. All I got left is to stick the wheel back on. It's being a pain since it seems the fender brace has moved a bit.
