    Ackerman angles are taken to the rear pivot point,with such a short wheel base they will be extreme angles.

    What it needs is a thumping great VTwin out the front with shiny alloy and doo dads know one knows what they are,'cept they just look good.

    looking at pics and reading parts of thier website....

    i noticed that the whole frame tec.... leans over....pushing the arms ...therfore tilting the wheels...but if you look you can see the froný shock assembly in effect stays put and parallel to ground and everything else leans away.....reading through the website....the footboards do the same... in parts of the pictures is too dark to see the way it really works...but i'm gunna figure it out...prob end up building something similar cus i hate spending money lol

    What I notice is that the front wheels always seem to be on much more of a lean than the rear wheel, which stays almost upright. It doesn't seem to be cornering like a bike at all.

    That's what I mean - it's on opposite lock but with very little lean. As Mr Motu said, it should be leaned right over to be applying opposite lock, but it's not. That's more like a car than a bike .
