Scary Porsche engined trike

Check out this Porsche engined trike...

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.

Well, at least the post office didn't have it to paint their post boxes with. :la:

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
