Sometimes we would file for a patient to block competion.

I worked for the Canadian Intellectual Property Office (gov't of Canada) for 20 years and I saw that happen all the time. Just because someone files for a patent does not mean that they will get one nor want one. It could just be a move to stop others from doing it.

I hope they give me a cut - I have been writing to them to do just that (they ask me to stop on facebook) also have taken a lot of heat from people for suggesting it. LOL

I thought someone already did a leaning 3 wheel bike with 2 wheels in front.

Did a google search and there are quit a few but guess no one has patterned it yet

[tommyoneleg]

here is something - they are behind - it has been done before so they are late to the party

safe guard...there are some out there but if you make a three wheeler lean then it would be better to just go back to a two wheeler..lmho...

Your driving one of the most stable bikes on the road. I (and my wife) are tired of the leaning. Besides, I might spill something out of my cup holder.

Even Harley Davidson was toying with a tilting reverse trike called the Penster several years ago. It sits in their museum now.

Never be surprised; by what surprises you next!
The technology already is here, and it already works...
BRP may just be covering their butts with this filing; it doesn't mean that it's their SOLE purpose...
Time will tell!

Like mine as as is little lean in the front is fine riding skills to handle the rest. Just get your rear up and off the seat some

I saw a video of one built by Mercedes Benz, It looks to be just a concept though.

They're all playing with three wheels right now...
It's a great way to test new technologies, and it's so much easier to meet Governmental standards with one!
