Interesting, but like all trikes, I'd have to ask whats the point?
They have all disadvantages of cars & m/c's and few of the benefits.

I think it's pretty cool. When I see a trike the first thing that comes to mind is the opportunity for a disabled Vet or otherwise handicapped person to be able to get into the wind............with a few mods of course.

I saw an article not to long ago... Guy's buddies turned his 2003 Gixxer 1K into a trike after he lost the use of his legs in Iraq. He finally got back home to find his "Bike" was now a "Trike"... I avoid asking what they are for now.

If you're going to trike a sport bike, why not go the extra mile and quad it? That way you can still get some of the same sensations that the bike had with only 2 wheels. I saw some photos a bud at work took at Myrtle Beach's Black Bike Week of a Gixxer done this way and I have to admit, it really looked cool. The unfortunate thing about trikes is that they become for all intents and purposes a straight line machine.
