They're just about to let this out to the public. It's being manufactured just over the hill in Portland, OR.



When I first heard about this one I don't believe it was limited to 10 MPH.

Still pretty cool.

Do you guys remember the Quasar(s), made in the seventies in Britain. One of them had even been equipped with a Z1300 engine.

They are very rare and incredibly ugly ...

I believe that this one is being developed in Arizona.

It's a reverse trike which will supposedly sell for $6,800.00.

No Holger, I've not heard of it.

Got any pics or links?

Course I can't leave out a CanAm Spyder.

I've taken a test ride on one of these and was disappointed in the steering. It never seemed to smooth out. I believe they call the behavior "bump steer". Power was fun, at least till the computer takes over at 35 MPH and stops the wheel from spinning.
