I always thought a Harley Davidson that could go around corners was called a Buell :rofl: What is the extra wheel for? Might as well make a Harley Davidson car.

Nah, it doesn't piss me off.

More like makes me feel all queasy like.

BTW, next year it's XR1200 time. Now that's a Harley to overcome corners!

I guess one day (with a few companies getting in on this design) these may become common and more accepted... but IMO its the ugliest form of wannabe motorbike I have ever laid eyes on. Cant picture ever owning one myself.

It's not a motorbike, but the Can-Am spider is some of the best fun I've had on a vehicle.

This thing will be great fun too.

Well Im always happy to be proven wrong... maybe if they're so much fun I will have to eat my words but I still reckon they are dead ugly.

No... youve got that all wrong... I offered the manufacturer one of your testicles to stop them from producing such an ugly machine... unfortunately, they didnt believe that you had any :shifty:

Just get your head around 'not motorcycles' and embrace the new technology that makes all these these vehicles we are seeing possible.

They are recreational vehicles that can be used as day to day transport.

Seriously good fun. Not motorcycles.

That might be a fun vehicle to ride - but it's got the wrong number of wheels, the correct number is 2!!!!!!!!

I think that trikes like that suffer from the disadvantages of bikes: no protection for crashes or weather. But they don't have one of the bigest advantages of bikes: narrow enough to filter through traffic. FAIL!!!!!

The Can Am is probably the best looking vehicle of this type I have seen.

Where did you get to ride it Big Dave?
