    Nice "bead lock" rear rims also. I think this guy got confused with a quad. Ohlins front shocks? I think theres sopposed to be a quad there instead of a X.

    They changed it probably in response to all the emails indicating how warped there ad was....Funny though the first ad showed the trike parked in someones driveway Now the next ad shows something in a beautiful showroom ....Same seller ......Also since when does someone with ZERO feedback ask for preapproved bidders only.....Smells real fishy to me!!!!!
    Wikipedia "All Terrain Vehicle" Definition excerpt
    Other smaller or lesser known companies, such as Tiger ATV, Franks, and Cagiva, produced racing three wheelers, but in much smaller numbers. Few of these machines are known to exist today and are highly sought by collectors.

    Check out my Tiger 3 wheeler Webpage..my quest for a TIGER MUSEUM started 2004 http://sites.google.com/site/tigerrotax/home

    Yeah, what the heck is going on. That is a nice looking unit though. I hope no one is dumb enough to fall for it.

    What I can't understand is how the seller was able to COMPLETLY change the add to another one using the same auction # ?????
