Dammit!! :mad:

And here I was contemplating looking at one of those Kwakka 3-wheeler Concept J thingies to get away from all the issues with the newer Spyders! :gaah: :cus:

I'll reserve comment until I see an actual phot and not an artists rendition of what it might look like. But as of now, not a big fan of separate handle bars for each wheel.

I must admit that I'm not really holding my breath waiting for it; just like I'm not holding my breath waiting for an electric Spyder.... :rolleyes:

After all, it's only been what... 13 or so years now since BRP first told us to expect them :dontknow: and they're still making a big announcement and having a big celebration every couple of years about adding another year or two to the expected release date, then not too much later, just pushing it out even further again!! :gaah: :bdh:

Not sure we are getting the whole story here. He didn't start any of them. Turning the key in the ignition may not equate to being able to start the machine. If the chip and computer don't communicate. It may thwart the process just as well.

Admittedly, grasping at straws here. Could corporate engineers make this big a mistake? Doesn't seem possible. But you'd think the chip interface would prevent the bike even coming to life. I agree, doesn't look good at all.
