What would happen if a t-bucket mated with a chopper? Not sure how I feel about this one - badass or stupid?

I can imagine it being a bit more stable than a trike. I thought those T-Rex things were pretty cool. I’d rock one of these, they look like something out of “Mad Max.”

That’s what I was thinking too. One of the guys here saw a reverse trike in Southpoine yesterday. Said it was bright yellow and, unlike a regular trike, was able to lean into the bends.

I never liked the idea of a trike because it’s impossible to avoid road hazards. You can’t swerve around things like a bike and you can’t straddle roadkill or potholes or anything since you have that 1 wheel hanging out in the middle. Still kinda neat looking though.

Interesting. He says it looked like it had wider tires and they were spaced further apart that that one.

I know what you are talking about. I think it is called a spyder bike. I see a few of them up at Foxburg on 68 a few weeks ago.

Probably the Can Am Spyder Roadster as shown in the previous post

I saw a silver one parked on Carson Street last week. Pretty slick looking machine.
