Check out this Porsche engined trike... Image

It looks scary having all that weight & power hanging out back. I think it could do with some wheelie bars.

I've just noticed the tow bar too. It'd look strange towing a caravan, eh?

The front tyre should last for years, as it won't be on the road much.

Those things are really evil to drive. Fine on the motorway. But try turning a corner in one. All they want to do is go straight on. You almost have to stop to make a turn. Dangerous IMHO.

A well set up trike actually handles well.

The one I drove obviously wasn't! Too little weight on the front wheel! :)

It tends to be the rake of the forks that are the problem or ones that are not strong enough.

My mate in LA has one with a chevvy in it and it handles very well
