Not a motorcycle…
Nov 4th, 2009 by Leo
Is it a motorcycle or isn’t it? You certainly get the open cockpit feel of the environment; that’s like a motorcycle. But you also get high speed drifting and controlled over-steer, which is not something you get much of on a bike at all. But the heart and soul (the engine) is from a Kawasaki, and so is the transmission. So…clearly there’s one too many wheel to be a motorcycle – but on the car motorcycle spectrum is it closer to a bike or a car? Or what I really want to know is: does it come in black?

c’mon son! guess it depends on your view. from the back it looks like a bike. from the front it looks like a car. it has a steering wheel and a roof and seats with a seat belt. we can go 4 trike!
I vote car. It’s like an Indy racer. Looks like crazy fun!
Yeah if I were to spend 60k on a car – this would be the one… Even though a front windshield and doors cost extra…
All the inconvenience of a motorcycle, with none of the fun of leaning into turns.
Yeah – and at 5 x the price…
But I do like driving a car that I can light up the rear tire(s).
Less motorcycle than the Can Am RS, which is less motorcycle than a Harley-Davidson trike, and I can’t even decide if that counts.
And I’d go with an Ariel first.
