you can just see Paul Hogan saying when you turn up on your poxy V8 powered trike, "nah mate, THIS is a trike"

I doubt you would ever get cold riding that thing, The heat from all those pipes must be unreal.:gob:

Yeah I think the pipes need redoing. I'd run them underneath. But trikes are all about "look at me" possibly even more so than cruisers so in that aspect it certainly ticks the box.

:gob::gob::gob::blink: Had an XJS once, great car but economical?

Is the front axle plate a jag shape? Nice touch! How does it get a WOF with no muffler/s? Big let down would be the ride on lawnmower seats, easily fixed tho as well. Bet it does mean donuts!

proximity of inner pipe to passenger seat would seem to indicate "NO FATTIES ON THE BACK"

I like the 'no time wasters' in the add. The whole thing is a waste of time IMO.

That may be a reasonable trike but this is a proper sidecar: http://www.liveleak.com/view?i=339_1232605189
