    I used to play in the desert on an ATC (3-wheeler), but I never saw one go backwards :roflmao:

    It does look like it could be alot of fun though.

    My first bike was a 3 wheeler with 2 wheels in front. I think it was a cushman. I was 9 or 10 years old. It was handshift with 3 forwards and a reverse. We had a pretty big property to ride on and I would terrorize the neighborhood kids with wild rides. Got a picture around somewhere. Will post it if I can figure out how to scan it.

    They seem to be adding more and more to the web site. It was just a still picture the other day.
    I Wouldn't mind trying it.

    I think we're going to start seeing some different looking machines out there. Like that new Victory. Looks strange to us now, but in a couple years who knows.

    How will it get THAT on the dyno? Seriously though, it is a great bike to visit, but I wouldn't wanna be there when you grab a handfull of front brake. The Rear Wheelie guys will snatch these things up quick I am sure.

    They did there homework, lots of tech, A+ for effort. I guess we SHOULD ride it first before passing judgement. Kinda like ol'e Betty Lou Hilderbottom in Junior High, not much to look at but DAM! Golf Balz through hoses and chrome missing from trailer hitches, SHE WROTE THE BOOK! :roflmao:

    yeh, ChuckTX. It was pretty similar. I think my dad got it for me in 1956. Atlanta, GA. He put a box on the front with a bench seat. I could carry 2 kids. It was pretty hot for a 9-10 year old.

    i must admit, i like it better than most 3 wheelers i have seen.
    but it is still a 3 wheeler, they just moved the training wheels to the front!!!

    on the flip side, my wife has sarablepossie, she just might be able to ride that one...................

    as for me, i will just stick with 2 wheels, till i get real old..........then i will think about the training whell thing............

    I just got back from Vegas. They had two of these sitting in front of the Harley Davidson Cafe. One yellow and one black. It definately caught your eye, but when you really look at it, it doesn't do anything for me. I could see alot of people buying them though.
