The Honda PCX / Forza / ADV150 / SH Forums

They are registered as motorcycles. About $25k with a few options I would want. Two retired guys bought them at my dealership and one said it goes like a bat out of heck....

It looks a bit silly

Ok if you have a wet bum crack I guess

I would only get one if I won it for free. It would be fine for touring our Ozarks but scooters are more fun IMO.

Looks like a car.

Bit like a badly copied KTM crossbow

Or the bastard offspring of a Crossbow and a Morgan.
Like all trikes it combines the worst of a car with the worst of a bike.
Only morons would buy them.
Bit like the fake Harleys in the background, who would want a fake Harley when the real ones are shite enough.

Clearly they will be less shite than a harley.

Baubles not motorcycles.

It can only be truly balanced with two riders of similar weight.....

it has all been done before

Never thought about balance. One may need to strap in a Barbie manikin.

Some states say it doesn't fit the definition of a motorcycle.
Polaris Slingshot now banned in Connecticut, too

2015 Polaris Slingshot First Look
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LGtB3B-Gikc

Chainsaw, who manufactured that one in the picture you displayed? The Slingshot has more aggressive styling, but otherwise they look similar. I have seen some home builts around here that look similar. Every one of those was driven by a disabled vet. I don't see the reason for them otherwise. There are now kits that can turn big scooters into trikes, and those kits don't cost as much as a Slingshot. In fact, my wife and i agree that once we get too old to ride these beautiful little pcx 150's, we will probably buy a used triked Burgman 650. It will still be much much cheaper than a Slingshot, and there won't be as much discussion about what it is for registration purposes.

the trike i showed is a Grinnal Scorpion, it uses a bmw bike motor and driveline.

Only if they have a brick in their handbag...

Try it your like it!

Spyder all the way! OK just trying to be patriotic to a Canadian company. Many bike stores here sell them as snowmobiles also made by BRP are what keeps them viable in winter.

I'm like what?

It looks like a ride at an amusement park! I bet it is a blast however but the price - OUCH!

You took the words right out of my mouth! Perhaps we're thinking "bumper car?"

I'd rather have This! &....in This! Fast Color!

Shown is a 2014 Can-Am Spyder RT for $22,500
