    "The Stallion" Trike

    Nice looking trike powered by a Ford motor.

    Looks a bit silly mate. Air conditioning and heating for rider and passengers? Why? And who needs a 7 cubic foot trunk anyway?

    Full faired trikes don't look right.

    Wouldn't have one myself, but may interest someone.

    Beam me up scotty, how is this a winner?
    I mean it's kinda cute but you cant really say its related to a real trike or bike.... can you? I think I will stick to my 2 wheels. good post though.

    I like it,a blending of a few ideas - I'd be keen to give it a thrash.

    It's interesting and very different. And it looks like the execution is 1st class. But it has a steering wheel .....

    Stallion my arse. More like a mare. No real biker would be seen dead in the thing. No handle bars=no trike. It's the three wheeled cage without a top. Turn up to a ralley in that and you'd be the laughing stock of the meet.

    I''d be interested to find how it handles. Though it must be admitted, on that basis does a Reliant Robin class as a trike?

    A thought that occurs to me, has anyone ever doen a trike with REAR wheel steering? Forklifts use rear wheel steering so it is obviously possible, and it would eliminate the problem of haveing to use car type steering with only one wheel, and the resulted wheel tuck under problems.

    My sentiments exactly... I'll ride anything just (with wheels) to see what it's like. 99 times out of 100 with a huge grin on my face.

    its a 3 wheel convertable car, not a trike. I'd like to see if you could wheelie/mono it , but damn if you tipped it. The only trikes ive ever ridden are dirt trikes 200cc etc, and they cant turn for shit and they get 1 wheel up in the air and are very slopy? how to real trikes combat this problem?
    Then I could get a Kb Tshirt, move to Timaru and become a full time crossdressing faggot
