Very good information. They could possibly become a viable competitor should they go through from concept to final product. The company also has a very good rep with quality. The Victory line of motorcycles seems to be getting better with time. IMO: The jury is still out with what they might do with the Indian brand though.

I sure wouldn't want a 4 seater. I like my alone time on my Spyder!

That looks more like a 3 wheeled car to me, not that I wouldn't be fun to drive. I saw something like that as a kit that used a BMW bike for the rear section.

I guess I would have to look at it since I have 5 Polaris sleds.

Ann01: it looks more like a side by side to me as opposed to a four seater. I do agree though--solo flight is definately more fun.

I think what was behind the two front seats were a set of roll bars not back seats. I applaud any and all of these new concepts. Innovation is going to benefit everyone. We need to see more thinking outside the box.

Not a trike..!!

The English made several vehicles such as the one pictured. They were classified as cars because you sat in an enclosed cabin. I think they would be a compeditor for the T-Rex and sort. Although it looks cool..:thumbup:

The write up on Kneeslider says a GM 2.4 liter 4 cylinder engine. Bet it lights up the rear tire real easy.

Too enclosed for my liking. Yes the English was first, with their Morgan 3 wheeler.

I will have one please. In my experience, however, the only thing that craters faster than a Rotax is a Polaris engine. But a four cylinder N/A engine might hold up.

Too much like a T Rex or a Morgan, not motorcycle enough for me!

Too car like for me--but then again--Polaris has a good history of quality build--guess I'd have to wait and see if it really happens

Well it sure looks like it has some potential...
But I think that I'd still be more interested in one of these...

The Morgan is being manufactured and imported once again. Starts at $55K and goes on from there. Pretty steep for something with an air cooled HD engine.

The GG Tauras is a good looking machine but also a bit pricey.

Spyder is a great machine at a reasonable price which is probably why the others won't sell very many.

Didn't someone come out with a 3-wheelers car back in the 40s? They made a movie about it, I think.

 

[Bob Denman]

Here's one that's got a spyder underneath the sexy bodywork... :2thumbs:

Harley has had at least two concept front trikes on the drawing boards. If they made a serious effort to market them at the same price point as the Spyder there would be some real market competion. I still feel the Spyder would be a more technological advanced machine but the market out there would most likely swing towards the Harley. Just because.....
