Holy crapoli and this thing actually corners as in the proverbial "like it's on rails".....is that really touching 200mph???
Save the negative comments if you're too old to remember how fun this would be. This thing is bad azz....

Speaking of negative remarks!!   Roll Eyes   I have more than a few years behind me and I'd find that ride a blast....as I'm sure most would of my age bracket.  Kinda funny though, there had to be a female in there somewhere which might be kinda fun as well....if she was wearing my ring.  Wink

I'm not so sure about the trike thingy, but that thing in purple would be a blast to ride.   Wink

I can't help about the shape I'm in
I can't sing, I ain't pretty and my legs are thin
But don't ask me what I think of you
I might not give the answer that you want me to

John, I'm just so used to seeing so much negativity unless it's our beloved Valks. I can appreciate all rides. It isn't "it's not what you ride, it's that you ride....as long as its what I ride"....  Roll Eyes

I can like what the Rocket or Victory or Indian brings without resorting to the whole "V-Twinkie" denigration even though I may not want to buy one.

I don't see myself on a trike for a long time but that would be a blast.

Cheers......

WingD.....we think alike brother. Except for seeing myself on a trike that is, age often changes one's thoughts re. that. So far, so good....but a trike may be a safer bet in the not too distant future.  cooldude

WNGD, that is one fantastic ride.
The question is...."where can I rent one for the day." Oh.. for just an hour with that machine.

He may own that one by now. I think that trike was built in 2009.
