Whew.........................

Dude I just don't know about 100+ on a three wheeler.

Notice that the two wheels are in the front, not in the back like a trike............... Single drive wheel in the back..... Computer-controlled traction control and stability system.............
Changes the dynamic completely.
Like driving an extremely fast small sports car, with the benefit of the openness of a bike........ Nearly five foot spread across the front wheels.......

Damnest thing I've ever ridden on.......... Lit it up on I-30 south of Little Rock, and it tracks solid as a rock......
Gotta get down behind that little windshield at 100 +, though................. You can bust that in third gear on it.............

Guess I'll take my chances................. Working on the wife now............Had her on it today too.......... Woo Hoo !!


(oh........and gets an average 40 + mpg.............)

Murdercycles for old people!

My small car death will come in the form of: http://www.arielatom.com/

I saw one of these on the highway, and had to do a double-take.

Looks like fun. But if I had the spare change for a 3 wheeled road machine, I'd opt for this:





T-Rex in action.

Theres a dealer right by me that always has them out.Every time they do the test rides tho,I'm usually gone.
Saw a guy light up that back tire from a 40 mph roll one day,smoked em good too,looked funny doing it tho.

I saw one down the street for the first time a week ago, I thought, "what the he double L is that?"
is it a BMW?

Theres a couple of those around here... Very cool in My opinion...

They're made by Can-Am........... (Bombardier)
Initially invented the snowmobile, and major players in 4-wheeler ATV's..................

Wow that's pretty cool lookin there!

Yeah, and only $50,000.

Done deal. I pick it up Friday..................
(.......gonna have to find a little trailer to pull behind to store my walker in, I guess...........)

How about 4 wheels with the GG Quad a Bmw engine powered four wheeled beast. I saw a prototype a few years running Deals Gap "The Dragon"
Didn't shoot the vid but around the resturant when he barked the tires

I could think of 1,00000000000 better ways to spend $17k

Damn !! Wish I had known that.........you could've sent me a list of suggestions based on your priorities !!

Me, I have some buddies with bikes I'm really looking forward to riding with............ That's the only reason I needed.
Old guys who work hard deserve to have neat toys........... My toys are TROMIX weapons, and now this...............
Hey........., Life is good.................

i can see a custom-made gun rack on a trailer rated for 100mph in your near future Jeaux E.

Heh, heh, heh.............
Already thinking about my first road trip on it........ Hope the weather holds out for another month or two here in the South........... (not that it'll matter once I get the touring windshield..........)

Tested one back in Aug. at Cedar Rapids, IA. Quite a rush, the handling at high speeds. Just, closest gealer 400 miles away. Nice ride.

Well....it looks like a drag race is in order. That beast up against my 106 S&S Victory Vegas, 120hp, 138 foot pounds of torque at the rear wheel, 635 pounds.....it runs out of gearing at 130mph though.

Whew, Tony.........

Let me get used to the thing first, you ride it, and then we'll see how that goes !!!
