That's the way to go for three wheelers, I wouldn't want to lose the tilt effect......... Might need some work on the looks of it........ The Duc' looks ok.
I'd like to see that tilt feature on the CanAm Spyder. Thanks for posting. Very cool.

A wide version of the Piaggio 3 wheel scooter.
Very cool looking reverse trike! Also looks like it would be much ligher than the Spyder. :cool:
18 seconds into the video..... drawback of motorcylces, limitted safety.....
If you donot have the aptitude to ride a mc, you will get yourself killed on one of the 3 wheelers too I think

Yep, and if it suddenly becomes a lot safer to lean a motorcycle when cornering ... I actually wonder whether as many people would feel as attracted to MCs anyway?
Some people are drawn to living "on-the-edge"!

When I look at this trike I see something somewhat exciting. Then again I look back at my ride into work this morning and I am still smiling. I do not know if I like it or not, that is not my point. When you drive a Datson 240z or ride a CB750 custom Cafe' you are feeling something that technology can never seem to give you. Freedom to feel the road speak to you. The more you tech things up the less fredom you have and the less skills you really get to keep. My lady owns a WIndstar mini van. She had to stop short one day and the anti-locks wen out. That van was never balanced to stop without a computer doing the math. When will you see that the bike is doing more of the driving than you are. I was shocked to understand I can not use my front and rear brakes independent of each other. On a bike without this feature you could be very shocked when the ass end trys to pass the front end under hard breaking. I worry that someday we will be people just pointing a bike down the rode like people do with cars.... Sad really. I have made sure both of my sons know how to drive a manual transmission for reasons just like that. When does it stop?
I made up my mind. Interesting to look at but, I will wait until I can no longer ride two wheels before life forces me to toss a leg over three or even four.
Enjoy your day my friends.......

They could have, but they know their market. I won't say more.
