I don't want to seem negative, but the inside tire lifting is not an endorsement for it's roadholding abilities. In fact, it's scary. It proves that 2 lateral g's would be impossible with this vehicle. I doubt those tires would hold much more than 1 g, and if your inside tire begins to lift before they lose adhesion, your vehicle will roll at less than 1 g. For comparison, the new ZR1 Corvette with Michelin Pilots can only hold 1.06g's. You think you can out corner a new ZR1? I'm impressed...

Very very cool. I purchased RQ Riley's plans for the Tri-magnum but stalled out during the planning stages (too much fiberglass fab, I guess) You've inspired me to look into alternatives. I thank you, sir (although my wife probably doesn't lol!)

In Texas it is still a 2000 Kawasaki ZRX1100. You do nothing other than getting an inspection like any other motorcycle. You must have a motorcycle lisence to drive it and have motorcycle insurance. That is it...

I like the feeling driving with nothing nfornt of you, and being to touch the ground on both sides. THe only down side is it is difficult to talk to your passenger (I use an intercom)..

@ 1:45 you made a left turn illegally. The CHP will be interested in your post dkincheloe.

I have no idea what you are talking about...we have center turn lanes in Texas, it is not only legal, but required that you turn left out of turn lanes...have a great day!
