OK Hornet, here it is
« on: February 18, 2007, 12:34:31 pm »
A real three-wheeled machine that VW was afraid to build.  Give it a little turbo and we're in business.

Whaddya think? :D  Love the fact that it's a v-twin, it's gotta sound like sex on wheels.

Canadians already paid for it, so we might as well buy one if it's within our means.  :-\

Looks.....interesting?.....hmm- I think that if people are afraid to ride on two wheels, they should stick to four though...

very cool...looks like fun. I do like the tandem seating like the VW I was talking about or the T-Tex better  ;).

Here is another Quebec manufacturer using a Harley engine: http://www.cirbinmotors.com/

I like the seating arrangement better myself because if I'm in a car... it should be like a car.  But hey, I really don't want anything with a Harley powerplant in it, even if it does have 100hp like the v-rod.
