Harley To Build New Trike
17 Jun 2007 09:59
Hey gang- Pretty self-explainatory. Check out the lineart images. Have to wait and see if and when it makes it to market. Not my flavor but some folks might like the style. Reminds me of a Hammerhead Shark.

Looks like they are borrowing the CanAm design, who probably borrowed it from some European design.

wow, if a harly coudlnt get any heavier or slower.
they should stop wasting time on this and put it into making a better engine, or only using the v-rod engine.

They had Lehman Trikes help them out with the design just like they had to have Porsche help out with the V-rod's "Revolution" engine.
I feel sorry for the people buying traditional HDs. Part of that money is going to some engineer that's been "engineering" the same motorcycle since 1903.
Good luck Harley. LOL!
:blink: :woohoo:
Later, Doug

I like trikes, its also nice knowing that handicapped people have a ride and are able to get back into the wind other than a convertable car or riding in the back of a truck.
I would ride one, i have a fancy for anything that makes noise and attention.

The cool part is, it's a carving trike... the wheels are supposed to lean. Pretty sweet looking.

Harley is behind alot of people with what they think is new. There is a scooter with three wheels, that lean, I think it's Piaggio!

i'm not bashing harley's but there are behind the times!
i'm sure they will market it right and sell quite a few.
remember the old saying:
"if harley had more engineer's then lawyers, they would have a better bike"
wonder who's patent ran out?
