Ha ha ha ha ha ha YA RIGHT. that is not a three wheeler in the sense that all of us on this forum would be referring to. First of all, the two wheels are in the front. This set-up is not near as cool. Second, that is strictly a street bike. The ad even said it was great for off-road. Ya f*n right. I'd love to see someone take that off the pavement and see how long it takes before you destroy it. It's only got one drive wheel! You'd be stuck in no time. And third, it's just one of those new "Can AM" style motorcycles for girls who can't ride real motorcycles safely. So thanks for the good laugh.

I'm almost sure thats a Campagna Trex

Yeah, that's a T-rex:

It's a high performance street vehicle, that rivals higher end luxury cars like Ferrari, Lamborghini, or Lotus.

It's also significantly bigger and higher performance than a motorcycle (in the sense that it can corner a lot better than a bike):

I've been on a street bike, and in a T-rex, and i'd much rather prefer the t-rex because of its higher performance envelope.

Also, an inexperienced T-rex driver (as with everything else) won't be able to fully appreciate just how maneuverable and sporty the thing actually is.

Pulls better than 1g in turns if i'm not mistaken, canadian made
If i had almost 50g i would prefer it over an 87 R, lol:but true

Yeah, it can for sure pull some very strong laterals, hovering right around 1g or so, and if it weren't for the seatbelts it has, you would go flying out the side :lol:

A lot of reviewers have given it crap, because it's a 3 wheeler, some of them even saying "There's a reason modern vehicles have 4 wheels.", but I'm calling the BS card on them for not allowing their driver sufficient time to get used to the vehicle. They even showed them spinning out, and I could tell they were using too much gas. It's advertised as a high performance vehicle, so not everyone can just hop right in and ride circles around everything.
