thats just TOO close to a car. its close to a convertible ...

but to each their own that's the great thing about it...

Well I don't know what to call it or how to license it... but it's WAY cool! :2thumbs:

Easy, it started out as a Goldwing M/C the VIN will read M/C,You just keep
on renewing the registration, Motor Vehicle won't know you added an extra wheel. You might have trouble if you get into a serious accident.
Or a sharp eyed Cop knows the laws on 4 wheel vehicles.

:doorag:
The H/D 3 wheeler has Soul ,mostly exposed 45 degree V air cooled engine. Sit on one[engine running] before somebody puts pipes on.
Unlike the Spyder it doesn't need pipes to make the rider feel like they
have an engine under them.

So it is a motorcycle:doorag: and the Spyder is one up the evolutionary scale....

:agree: A coherent explanation that makes sense...

In Maine the definition of a motorcycle is a two or three wheeled vehicle. Since that unit has four wheels it would have to meet all the requirement of an automobile to be liscenced here.

I am going to leave what you call it to folks with mo interest than I can muster. I will simply ride it, enjoy it immensely, and generally have a good time.. People can call that whatever they want

:clap::agree::clap:

Looks like they are shooting for a price of £25,000 ($40,500) but the price will likely be higher after importing it into the US. Ah, the stuff dreams are made of!

I read something about this on Kneeslider a while back, Ace Cyclecars in Washington state has been accepted by Morgan to build them, if I read it right. Checked out their website, but 50K is a little rich for me.

Already have one. I'm just saying that I like the looks.

Soooo, if you convert a Spyder to a 4-wheeled vehicle, does that make it a

SPXDER? Or maybe a SPHDER?

I believe you need to check with louracing on that question.

I kinda like this one, it has a certain something to it I can't quite define. I still likes me Spyder a bit more though!

:agree: with Doc and Barbary. I just call mine 14. She likes that!! And she sure feels like a bike to me!

When people ask me about my Spyder I call it my street doo. They just shake their heads and agree. Ride safe
