Trike turbo

[LibertaerUeberAlles]

Video from 2006. I wonder if the trike is still alive.

[mikez750]

no not good enough for me kinda cool but just ok and i do ride and thats not that impressive ok hit 140 doing a wheelie through semis then we can talk

[AllAlaskan907]

@mikez750 its not a motorcycle its a trike its not designed to do wheelies through Semis, and only a jack ass would pop wheelies while going through Semi's! Thats a good way to Kill your self. I dont how good you think you are if you want a short life you keep that up.

[johnmadox]

it seems too mutch power for one wheel,no?

[onetonmagoo]

Donuts are nice, but you're gonna need more grip if you want to corner with me!

[Turbo617]

Why 3 wheels, no balls to ride a motorcycle?

[heavinutsman]

@Turbo617 a 700hp bike dont be daft

[BigdickTKer]

@heavinutsman Again, no balls to ride a bike? There are many people that own 800-1000hp turbo bikes.

[heavinutsman]

@BigdickTKer 800-1000cc is not the same as hp

[zelibober]

@BigdickTKer Don't write dumb comments please. By your post i can tell you never ride bike at all so you never have those balls you writing about. If the turbo on the bike kick in in corner rear wheel will spin and falling are inevitable. Custom build vehicles for those who want to be unique, and it has nothing to do with balls of fear.

[tabamoura]

@BigdickTKer 1000hp bike ? show me

[RIPSNZ]

waste of time with that rear tyre

[twostrokeornill1]

This machine was obviously built to incinerate a rear tire and to make sure the rev limiter really works.

[paodung]

you need to find the thickest rear tire availible.

[unclesonnyonutube]

that thing romps when the boost kicks in!

very nice custom build

[brentl3]

they should make those for racing

[atqblu]

this vehicle looks soooo cool.

turbocharged? envy you!

but if i were you i would

install 300 wide tyre.

it makes the trike really beautiful.

[sgeoghagan]

when you throw a tire as big as a 330 on there you start to take away power. 240 is the biggest you should go. but I do see what you mean all that power it is hard to get grip.

[pimpminister1981]

put a 330 rear end from a busa on it you'll get more traction then

[ziegech]

It sounds like when u miss a gear or shift late but then the rear shot shows its just that back tyre spinning up. must be alot of fun that spoiler would make alot of different over 150 i bet

[gg250cc]

it must oversteer like crazy... it needs a car tire on the back

[rikuwillkillu]

i dont know we need to think about the weight to

[imoutdoorsy]

will it corner?

[mop6wewe]

ur gona kill ur self wid dem tires

[tomatoe58]

just buy a t-rex

[imbok]

Damn I hate burnouts - they are so juvenile.

[rockhound694u]

sorry to hear you grew up

[WBD86]

thats nice! but needs bigger tire?

[fasty73]

All good to fry tyres!!! Does it handle around corners???

[cuttie100]

that thing needs a wider rear tire for better grip. Its losing vital torque with those skinny bike tires.

[kondemnert]

Mickey Thompson+motorcycle gearbox+400kg vehicle?... I think not. It does however use a low profile car tyre at the back now.

[gethighinHI808]

would be funny if there was a turboed K20 on that shit

[mangaliewa]

too fast man

[HostileHST]

That monster needs a Mickey Thompson on the back, hehe.

[kalfass]

la vache ca pousse

[desertwalker123]

this is the coolest thing Ive ever seen in my whole LIFE, WOW!!!!!SwEEEEt

[whunterx]

COOL...

[CrashmagProductions]

Sorry but your an ass your destroying that road, idiot, you should be arrested

[crotchrocket3000]

lol, yes leaving rubber on a road destroys it haha

[chiodeguate1]

Destroying the road??? Have you seen what the average road looks like due to daily driving? If anything, it has a little more traction laid down now. Are you selling a kit?>?

[paulfranke]

if anything they are only destroying their tires hahha

[Foxrace666]

id say a fatter tire on the back so she can get some more traction then test it again

[marshallspikebanana]

I concur....

[thefairyofintuition]

BIKR1975? the video says its a GSXR-1000, not a hyabusa. and 500bhp from a 1.3 turbo with a 4wd drive train? i dont think so!!, would like to see the dyno video if its true.

Back to the trike, what an awesome achievement!!! amazing frame, and no doub't performance once you get rid of the bike tyre on the back with something a bit wider.

[lamaq101]

is it hard to change gear or something?

[Sulkyrider]

Cool!!

Prawie jak moja trajka :)

[tokiobulldogg]

needs more tracktion ;)

[extramural]

Electric??!! Some of us are real men and petrol is the preferred propellant thanks. Electric cars are too slow and use too much solder which hurts the environment.

[hondabait]

No he's right, electric hands down. Too slow...lol... Electric is the best.

[dquistberg]

just put an electric motor on it. aside from reliablity, you'd also get way more torque with no turbo lag. lets face it, internal combustion is 2 hundred+ year old technology. if you want to really impress and make it stupidly quick, go electric. it'll snap your head off. unless budget is the issue, in which case (no big deal) you'll simply take second place to those who want the real power.

[sam19966]

this guy doesnt get traction till 4th gear

[nyekurity]

Büdös, Hangos, Ronda.

[bikr1975]

ahhhhh...thats music to my ears.

hhmmmmm, would that be a turbo hayabusa motor

would it??? i have one on an all wheel drive gocart that puts out just a hair under 500hp.

had to tune it down for a while till we worked the bugs out of the traction controll.

and due to the revolutionary drive system that works and no patents yes, we cant show it till probably next summer.

but we will be showing test vids soon ;)

projeted top speed:250-260mph.

current tires wont handle that:(

[godhand101]

no its a GIXXER 1K

[geati6783]

why do all guys use bikewheels on cars...take 300mm FLAT! wheels and this thing will FLY! :P

[popra007]

Cool, but only a traction weel :(

[mylarjorgen]

That looks lik it would be a lot of fun with a bigger boot on the back and a small down-plane maybe. I couldnt read the text though, black on dark trees, anyone know what that said? Better off using white text with black shadowing then you can read it no matter what is on screen.

[alehuj]

Wow, sick!

[maxvanN]

realycool, but zero traction at all

[RIPSNZ]

Cool, but you BADLY need some traction!!!

[3wbuilder]

awesome vehicle. I am sure this 3-wheeler needs at least 300mm wide tires, but perhaps a 195/40/17 or 205/40/17 auto tire can be fitted onto the current motorcycle wheel. I installed 195/40/17 onto my 2005 R1 rear wheel. Please experiment cautiously. Does the vehicle oversteer a lot with the motorcycle tire?

[koglowa]

it could go alot faster with more tire in the back....WIDER!!!

[nofearX18]

damn man. i say get a wider rear tire.

awsome work! look like you put alot of time into it. i like it wasome man!@

[davidbarrel]

That's the deal, the solo wheel behind not in front.

Seems to be very stable, how does it handles on curves?

Even if you blow a tire, is still stable;)

[jcstealth1]

holy crap that thing burns out\skidds when it hits high rpms at like 60mph

now thats a tricycle

[Charles2337]

That is so badass omg.

[AlexCail]

dude with all te power on the skinny back wheel it must not be geting the traction that could really make it haul ass. not that it doesnt.

[abcvega]

great vid....looks funny but seems really fast....

[wrxsti]

sikk man this is awsome cud do with a fiberglass bodyshell it'd make it look meaner lol sikk man its ace im 16 and i love the idea of the single rear wheel and a double front as its rarer realli i built a mini moto trike with this wheel set up!!!!

[brankog7]

you need a wide rear tyre off a side car mate

[Hurrenator]

man so much power it burns and leaves patchs everytime it gears hardcore

[disndat11]

eXcellent!

[vwbajaboy]

grinnall scorpion 3

[red1100cc]

way neat!
