    Yammy MT-09 trike

    Not sure about this but wouldn't mind take one out for a test to see how well she corners. I prefer the 2 wheel kind myself.

    As Crumpy said, looks like the computer hiccuped.

    its completely different.

    And it probably doesn't meet some minimum wheel track rule to register as a car.

    It's about the same set up as the Yamaha Tricity and that's registered as a car in NZ.

    Yup and so are several other three wheeler s, including the Boom Trikes which were only allowed to be imported because the Can Am had set the standard.
    So this being so, this could open a hornets nest for ACC.

    The Tricity cannot be locked in the vertical position, where the MP3 and others can. Here's hoping this one can be. It would be ideal for the stop/start traffic here as you wouldn't have to keep putting your feet down all the time.

    Oh, and here's me waiting for a 500cc Tricity. No doubt a face only a mother could love, but I can live with that if the grip and braking lives up to expectations. I would be praying for rain! Probably a PITA to push about and develops it's own gravity, but again, the grip!
