Default Alternatives to two-wheeled transpo

How about this? A Guzzi powered Morgan replica.

Spoke wheels, v-twin sound and retains the total wind-hair/bug-teeth experience

Wasn't one of those on Top Gear? Hammond drove it


I saw a Slingshot club drive(?) through town a few weeks ago... Looked fun as far as non 2 wheeled stuff goes...

Hammond drove a genuine Morgan


But, any three wheeler with a V-twin bolted to the front says yes to me!

Cheers, SB

The Morgan does somehow appeal to me

Hey Woof, saw this parked out the front of my place today and thought of this thread.


Very neat factory look, had a talk to the owner who said it is an American back end and an 1800 Goldwing up front....I liked it. Sorry about my photographic skills, or lack of.

Ah no, Jarvid. Hate to disagree, but a trike? Not what I was after here.

A Can-Am would be better.

The trikes are way to pricey. I see them up for sale used for $25K.

The Elio is a better choice. You can own a his and hers and still have plenty of cash for a spare and still have gas money left over.

It wouldn't be long before someone came up with a Busa or Zx14 engine swap kit.
