    Default Slingshot

    Friend works part time in Texas Capital said there's a bill to introduce a new type of vehicle " auto-cycle" so slingshot can be registered rather than modifying definitions of motorcycle. Apparently right palms were greased.

    They are pushing a bill in Louisana as well. Home of the (future some day) Elio. I agree all those sit down strap in wheel in your hand enclose three wheelers need a class of their own. They are a growing group but not a motorcycle....

    For once, I agree with something that "they" are working on. Should be in a class by themselves as they are surely not motorcycles--as we know them--of course.

    Currently Owned: 2019 F3 Limited, 2020 F3 Limited: SOLD BOTH LIMITEDS in October of 2023.

    Previously : 2008 GS-SM5 (silver), 2009 RS-SE5 (red), 2010 RT-S Premier Editon #474 (black) 2011 RT A&C SE5 (magnesium) 2014 RTS-SE6 (yellow)

    IT HAS BEEN A LONG, WONDERFUL, AND FUN RIDE.
