Concept drawing

Here is a concept drawing of something I think I might want to try. If any vendors are interested let me know. yes I know you would lose the trunk but dang it would be cool .

Looks like the front of a John Deere tractor.

a little i guess. the goal was to give a more aggressive look to the front. the GG trike was the inspiration

Sort of reminds me of 1940s race car design.http://www.google.ca/images?hl=en&b...0s+racing+cars&btnG=Search&aq=f&aqi=&aql=&oq=

It looks as if it might have an "aero" advantage over the current styling... better mileage and more top end! :2thumbs:

:2thumbs: I also finde the front of the GS/RS not rally sporty..
made 2 years ago this drawing (handmade..)
but stopped the project when I saw the first RT here

Just need a little green paint and a mower deck. Looks like my lawn mower.

looks good I just wish there was an option to get away from the snow mobile look. Everything aft of the frunk is perfect but the frunk and instrument cluster leaves just a little to be desired.

Good Drawing Skills but I think it would be Fugly on a Spyder..
it would make it look like a Raptor ATV.. you would loose the sleek look for a blocky one..

Hey, not too bad, Chas! I think deep down most of us would not mind losing that snowmobile front. For me, I would want something a bit more slippery that would manage airflow around the tires better and put some adjustable downforce on the nose. I think as time goes on we will see more and more options this way. Cost, of course, will be a driving factor, but we will see them I'm sure.

I wonder if/when BRP will ever do a re-design or provide factory options. The market is definitely there. You just can't keep churning out the same old look year after year...

I guess VW knew a winner when they saw it 'cause they sure made a lot of Beetles. So far, the design ain't broke so why fix it. Refinement and improvement, not change works for me here for now.

To me the front (head on) look has always been a bit odd (still- overall looks great) When i first got my RSS a friend said the front kind of looked like a alien face or head. (not in a good way ). The pantom in my mind is better with this because it blends the lines and lights together and in doing so makes that effect less noticeable. I think better custom after market options would be great. The ones I have seen so far look worse.

 

[chascarpenter1]

I couldn't agree more. Honestly I dislike vehicles with faces. and the instrument cluster just does not flow with the awesome curve of the y panel. The great part about bolt on panels should be that the entire look of the bike is easily modified. However I have seen little interest in this. Most ideas seem to just want to add to the already esthetically bulky front end. I would like to see the front ends. mass reduced and get the total length reduced to under 8'.

I think a take on this would look great with some sort of grill work below.

No offense intended.....but ugh! Beauty is in the eye of the beholder, I guess.

:thumbup: I didn't want to be negative again.

That's the beauty of having options. No one look is going to please everyone, so why not have some choices? Give it time - I think more innovative products will come to light in the near future. In the mean time, I'm quite OK with how 14 looks.

I have to admit though, every time I see that Busa Y-Trike my imagination starts running wild! I would love to give that thing a go...

Looks great , Thefront nose look like the Polaris Rush snowmobile with front facing radiator.

I think it's around $30,000. TT Bussa by Spinworkz(?)

Looks a little like the Hot Wheels Tri and Stop Me. It is a different take, but could definitely give a wider range of folks what they want from the reverse trike concept. I wouldn't mind seeing more styles out there, although I'm personally very happy with the BRP designs, especially when I'm headed to work and toss my laptop in the frunk.
