    send this to honda or ne other atv manufacturer

    ok im speaking for alot of people when i say please bring back the ATC'S /3 wheelers
    if *Edited* dont believe how many people are for this just go to http://www.3wheelerworld.com http://www.3wheeler.org and 3wheelerzone.bravehost.com

    heres our argument thats its legal
    Safety issues with 3-wheel ATVs caused all manufacturers to switch to 4-wheeled models in the late '80s, and 3-wheel models ended production in 1987, due to consent decrees between the major manufacturers and the Consumer Product Safety Commission -- the result of legal battles over safety issues among consumer groups, the manufacturers and CPSC. The lighter weight of the 3-wheel models made them popular with some expert riders. Cornering is more challenging than with a 4-wheeled machine because leaning into the turn is even more important. Operators may roll over if caution isn't used. The consent decrees expired in 1997, allowing manufacturers to once again make and market 3-wheel models


    and also all *Edited* have to do is make people sign waivers if *Edited* make them ,,,WE WILL BUY THEM!!! right now all we have are the 70's and 80's ATC's and theyre getting harder and harder to find and more and more money to buy we need an alternitave

    Thanx
    ___insert name here_____
    and all the members of the 3 wheeler websites!

    Never gonna happen. You'd be better off lobbying for parts to be reproduced. At least there's a snowballs chance in hell it could work.

    I was thinking the same thing that you were, making an agreement to sign that if they roll or injure themselves that The Honda corperation is not leagl for injuries to riders.

    I bet they would be all for it. There is a market for them of course so they could make money off them except remember the little deally about PEOPLE SEWING? You mension trikes being reproduced to a major company and they will laugh. Way too much to loose for them.

    if there were never any 3 wheelers 4 wheelers would have been banned 3 wheelers were just the scape goat for irrisponsble people who needed to blame thier ignorance and wrecks on........ when with practice guidance and enuf fear to respect the machine is the real cure!

    I think that is just a pipe dream. No manufacture is gonna take a letter like that serious because it would cost the manufactures WAY TOO much money to start reproducing trikes again. And you think that just because there are 7000 members of 3ww that means honda will make money? No, because even if each and every member bought one it wouldn't be enough profit.

    I kinda agree with dammit on this issue to an extent. I think we should all send a letter like that asking for certain parts to be remanufactured. If anyone was ever going to start making trikes again, they would need to know that people were really interested in buying from them. Who knows, maybe if they sold enough frames, motors, and plastics people would start rethinking things. Either way, good idea!
