Three Wheel Motor Vehicles

The Hayabusa is probably one of the most modified and customized motorcycles ever produced, sooner or later, if it’s been done to any bike, it will eventually be done to a Hayabusa.

Carver Europe, makers of the really cool tilting three wheel car, the Carver One, has gone bankrupt. It seems, though, Advanced Technology Licensing Company, which was formed to sell the tilting technology, is still in business, so the technology itself may live on and be used by other manufacturers in their own vehicles.

Bombardier has issued a recall for a number of 2008 and 2009 Can Am Spyder Roadsters for a problem related to high steering effort under certain conditions when the vehicle is drifting. The description is a little vague and “appropriate components” will be replaced. I wonder what that means. I also wonder how much [...]

in Motorcycle Builders, Motorcycle Business, Three Wheel Motor Vehicles

A couple of years ago I pointed out the ACE Cycle Car, a Morgan styled 3 wheeler powered by a Harley Davidson V-Twin. It’s been a little while since I checked out the Ace website and Pete Larsen, the builder of this very sweet little machine, dropped me a line to let me know he’s [...]

in Three Wheel Motor Vehicles

After mentioning the ZRX powered Sportcycle, Luka left a comment about the Rayvolution Trike from UK France? based Rayvolution Cars which brings the idea of plug and play up to date. This looks more like a sports car than a Formula racer and the power you plug in comes from a GSX-R 750 rolling chassis.
