Squidley Posted October 27, 2007 Share #4 Posted October 27, 2007 No thank you...that thing is uglier than sin! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thom Posted October 27, 2007 Share #5 Posted October 27, 2007 that looks like fun , is that a V Max motor ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pegscraper Posted October 27, 2007 Share #6 Posted October 27, 2007 My vote is for fugly. And it ain't a V Max engine. Read the description. It's a hybrid with a V twin and an electric motor. Batteries - no, everyone is not doing it. Thanks but no thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Condor Posted October 27, 2007 Share #7 Posted October 27, 2007 I can see the sport bike set liking it maybe, but even if it does lean you're not going to scrape any pegs with it..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gray Ghost Posted October 29, 2007 Share #8 Posted October 29, 2007 Even if it wasn't fugly, it's got two to many wheels. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hipshot Posted October 29, 2007 Share #9 Posted October 29, 2007 lynn. that THING, might be fun to ride, around town, but it looks like "death eatin' a cracker"! it don't do anything for me. as others have said though, the "street warriors", will probably fall head over heels , in love with it. just jt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pegscraper Posted October 29, 2007 Share #10 Posted October 29, 2007 Ya think so? I don't know. I wouldn't be surprised if even the sportbike crowd didn't go for that. Too much weight for one thing. Not "flickable". And too much unspsrung weight. This is one of those experimental gotta try it just to see what happens kind of things. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mariner Fan Posted October 29, 2007 Share #11 Posted October 29, 2007 UGLY!!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hig4s Posted October 29, 2007 Share #12 Posted October 29, 2007 Looks like a transformer. With a more sedate style I could see idea as an alternative to going trike when you can no longer hold a bike up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yammer Dan Posted October 29, 2007 Share #13 Posted October 29, 2007 Wouldn't have any trouble walking away from that one without looking back.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
High Plains Drifter Posted October 29, 2007 Share #14 Posted October 29, 2007 Looks like the new Victory with two more wheels! UGH-LEE!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dray Posted October 30, 2007 Author Share #18 Posted October 30, 2007 Dray.... you know me so well ........I love it And Squidley.... it looks better than a 2nd Gen Charlie the only thing is I'm not sure if its going to come in pink but that may be a Canadian option! LOL all kidding aside i see a lot of you think its ugly but I think this would be a great product for some folks that have handicaps and can still get around but cant quite handle a 2 Wheeler and they don't need a big bike for around town with a sidecar or a 20,000 dollar bike with a 15,000 dollar trike kit and as gas prices soar with a small trailer it would be a great little grocery getter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

loehring Posted October 30, 2007 Share #22 Posted October 30, 2007 This is the only "non-traditional" bike that has caught my eye. A great winter or severe weather ride. Looks like fun too. http://www.flytheroad.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
