commuter atv's were made by a company called adventure vehicles. they were in monroe, louisiana. they used kawasaki industrial engines.(lawnmover) i knew a guy that had one years ago. they were slow but was a good mud runner. steered like crap though.

Your right on the Kawasaki Industial Motor. 340cc and put out 9 HP.

But they were actually made by:
Commuter Industries, INC
Box 309
Hwy. 151 East
Cascade, IA 52033

I listed more specs of this machine and of the Granger model ( of which I have one ) in this posting:

There actually is quite a few Trikes that are automatic. Just off the top of my head there is these that were automatic: Tri-Zinger, ALT50, Sasquatch, Granger, Scat Tracker, Polaris ( P3), T555, Mud Bug, and probably 5-10 or more others.
