Tilting trike.... by Harley Davidson?

The basic concept is easy enough.. shouldn't be too hard to copy... just don't let HD's legal department find out..

Two wheels up front is the only way to make a decent handling trike.

i always though a racing sidecar would make a good road bike/trike/er sidecar.

although, i don't know if you'd have to have a 2nd guy on it all the time, or maybe just balast it down on the sidecar

"funny" is one way of describing that thing. Personally, I'd say it's halfway between fugly and fubar.. There's a reason I didn't post that picture!

I'm only interested in the suspension system.. actualy, come to think of it.. it seems remarkably similar to that of the Aprilia Magnet, if my memory serves me correctly.. let's see if I can dig up a pic..



Hm, ok.. maybe not..

The Magnet is by far the best looking trike I can think of, though..

The riders turning right but the wheels are pointing left
Couldn't you just buy a bike, remove the front wheel, add wishbones and attach wheels





How long can i resist the temptation to drop a V8 in?
