One of these pulled up next to me on the way to work today. It looked like a fun ride, like a snowmobile on wheels.

They sell these in Rancho on the north side of Hwy 50 just east of Sunrise. They are yellow and black. Interesting looking, but I don't know anything about them.

but the rear 2 tires are so close together that it should qualify as a trike.

To me, that was a performance enhancement to minimize understeer.

I just saw that thing on the 50 offramp going onto Sunrise. It was yellow. It DOES look like a snowmobile with wheels!

I saw one of those this afternoon on my way to work. He was going down Prarie City and getting on Hwy 50. It sure didn't seem to handle too well making that turn on the onramp. He was leaning way over that thing and going about the same speed as me. It looked pretty goofy. A nerds motorcycle. I am sure you would get laughed at pretty good by guys on a real bike. It also takes away the advantage of riding a motorcycle since its so wide that you can't slpit lanes on the freeway in stop and go traffic.

I thought about that too. About all it's got going for it is since it's a "motorcycle" it can ride in the carpool lane.

I'm predicting sloooooow sales. Looks a little scary. No real way to lean into a turn.
