Number Seven
The t-rex Arrow 3S
A lot of
these reverse trikes are kind of a hybrid
between cars and motorcycles. If you
aren't aware of what reverse trike is
the T-rex Arrow is an awesome example.
There are two wheels up front and one
larger wheel in the back. The T-rex was
and still is an original design for
motorcycle manufacturer ko Panyi,
who, to this day, still makes some pretty
awesome bikes. The T-rex arrow has a 1350
cc, four-cylinder, four-stroke engine,
which is placed at the rear of the
vehicle acting more as a jetpack for
this awesome machine. To complement the
aggressive body cell. The T-rex Aero 3S
also comes with a hundred and eighty
degrees scissor-style doors. Now we
aren't going to say these are cheap by
any means. The normal or base model
version runs about fifty thousand
dollars and it's souped-up sister the
arrow will set you back about sixty-four
thousand dollars.
Number Six
The 2018 Can-Am Spyder F3-S
So many of you might be aware of
the Can-Am Spyder, but still a reverse
trike, but closer to a version of a
motorcycle with two wheels up front. This
Can-AM is the 2018 10th anniversary Spyder.
Since launching its three-wheeled
Spyder RS Roadster a decade ago
Canada's Bombardier recreational
products, or BRP, has steadily improved
and expanded the Spyder light-on. Unlike
aftermarket trike conversions with two
wheels on back, the Can-Am Spyder was
designed from the ground up based on
what BRP calls, the Y architecture, with
two front wheels, double a-arm front
suspension, in an anti-roll bar, a single
belt driven rear wheel, and a vehicle
stability system that includes stability
control, traction control, and anti-lock
braking, and dynamic power steering. The
2018 Can-AM Spiders are powered by the Rotex
1330
ace inline three-cylinder engine with a
six-speed manual or semi-automatic
transmission with reverse and the
vehicle stability system. If you like
this style reverse trikes to the car
version then I would definitely go out
and pick up one of these today. It will
set you back about 23,000 for the base
models.
Number Five
The Invader
Forget the boring modern closed cockpit car and
the snow build styling of the Spider. The
Tanum Invader packs 197 horsepower
Hayabusa motor, carbon fiber with a
sequential shifter, and a huge rear tire.
Steering, gas, brake, and clutch are like
normal car layouts and the shifting is
available as a paddle or center lever.
Interestingly the design of this vehicle
and I assume others like it allow the
makers to get around and avoid certain
regulations that are applied to modern
cars. The regulations are more of
regulations that are applied to
motorcycles and superbikes. The price of
this trike is a little high, starting at
around 55,000. The reason being is
because the manufacturer Tanum actually
purchases brand new Suzuki Hayabusa
and disassembles them for the components
which also makes Tantum the largest
buyer of Hayabusa motorcycles in the U.S.
What's even more interesting is they
actually sell the take off parts that
aren't used through various outlets in
order to recoup some of the operating
capital. Still kind of makes me think why
is the price so high then? Hey guys, I
just wanted to give a shout out to Jason
Hinrich. Jason I'm hoping I'm saying your
last name right. Jason is a Mind's Eye
Design subscriber and he left us a
comment on our 7 land air and sea
vehicles you have to see you to believe
video. He left us an idea to share in
this video, just like any of you. You can
leave us a comment with any idea and we
might just feature it for you in an
upcoming video. There is nothing special
you have to do. Just be a Mind's Eye
subscriber and leave us a comment. Thanks
again Jason, for the idea.
Number Four
The Elio
This is the Elio 3. Now, it doesn't
look as aggressive as the others, but
does offer some advantages, such as the
84 miles per gallon, and the low price
point of only $7,500. So, let's talk specs.
The 900 CC Elio is a single door,
front-engine, front-wheel-drive autocycle,
that can be driven without a motorcycle
license in 41 out of the 50 states.
It fits two people tandem style and is
said to weigh just over 1,200 pounds. The
aluminum block, three-cylinder, single
overhead cam gasoline engine is Elios
construction. Also, with all 55 horsepower
and 55 pounds per foot of its might
routed through a five-speed
ASN manual or automatic. So, if you are
interested in something like this make
sure to check out their site the link is
always in the description below and
thanks again to Jason for suggesting
this vehicle.
Number Three
The Diamondback Leaning Trike
Here's a roadworthy trike for you.
It seems lately everyone is designing
trikes, whether they are big wheels, or
motorcycle hybrids, they are literally
everywhere. This one stands out though.
The vehicle is the creation of Ohio
based electrical engineer Don Davis, who
has previously worked in the automotive,
pneumatics, and aerospace industries. He
says, he first came up with the concept
when he became a dad and was looking for
a former transportation that was
exhilarating, economical, and safer than
his motorcycle. The current single-seat
prototype features a full steel roll
cage, a Formula-One style racing seat
with a five-point harness, and
pneumatically raised canopy. Power is
provided by a 1,300 CC Suzuki Hayabusa
engine. The pneumatic leaning system
which also adjusts to the vehicle's ride
height in accordance to the weight of
the driver is Davis's own design. He also
plans to develop a two-seater,
v-twin powered model, along with the idea of a
hybrid power plant, that has a canopy
which would include heating and air
conditioning. Although you won't find
this at your local dealership, he says, he
will build to order, at around thirty
thousand dollars per vehicle.
Number Two
The Ninja 900 R-powered Custom Trike
This is the awesome reverse trike from
AMT machine shop in Vancouver British
Columbia. This creation started as an
Ninja 900R powertrain and then
decided to build a custom cage around it.
He then transformed the 900 R into that
more of a car design type of reverse
trike. This awesome trike has a working
clutch, steering, turn signals, headlights,
and everything else you need to make it
a legal vehicle. Well maybe in Canada.
Don't really know about the United
States. Now, this isn't a car by all means.
This creation can Rev all the way up to
twelve thousand RPMs. If you look at most
cars you can only usually go to about
6,000 and some sports cars a little
higher. Obviously, from the video, you can
see that it handles amazingly. This
custom trike also utilizes custom coil
over suspension, custom control arms, and
various other parts from small sports
cars. Unfortunately, just like the
description, this vehicle is custom, and
is one-off, and you will most likely not
see another version in the near future,
but you never know. Money does talk and
if you have enough of it you probably
can make something happen.
Number One
The Scorpion P6
This reverse
trike looks more like an Indy car, or
a kart racer, then a reverse trike. It is
in fact closer to a motorcycle trike
then a car, but man this thing looks
pretty awesome. Built by Scorpion
Motorsports in Miami Florida the P6
consists of a steel tube space frame
with an aluminum semi-monocoque, and
seating for one. Complete with steering
wheel, and sequential shifter, paddle
shifting is of course, optional. Two big
tires up front, with Wilwood brakes, have
no problem slowing the Scorpion from top
speeds. The standard engine in this
vehicle is the 126 horsepower ZX6R
engine. In spite of that scorpion says
the P6 does zero to 60 in 3.5 seconds,
and zero to 100 miles per hour in 10.
Scorpion says they will be happy to
build you one for a little under 30
thousand and for only 6,000 more you can
get a turbo added. Not a bad deal.
