    I gotta agree, the major mfg. won't build them ever again. There are to many people that will sue if they slip and fall next to a ATC! The only chance would be if a law or laws are passed banning stupid and frivilace(sp?) lawsuits. And that ain't gonna happen anytime soon! I would think that with enough support we could probably get some custom and reproduction parts made. The big one would be new front suspensions and more and better extended swingers. So I think you should focuse your engery that way before you waste the time begging for the ATC's to make a comeback.

    just reading this, with all good arguments...I have changed my mind. I think the best thing would focus the energy on the AMA so we could try to start trying to get more tracks to have people racing on them. Hell i just got me a new flattrack R so i'm set! PLus, you all talk about talking to honda, yammy, or kawi and if "you get more demand, maybe they'll start makin again" OK, what about Wiseco and the 300R kit, if enough demand, they will make some. Has that even happened yet? Talk is cheap. I agree completely with your Timsr. Put your money where your mouth is.

    I would not really want to see 3 wheelers come back. I really love trikes but feel if they started making new ones the trikes I have would not feel as special to me. I think what makes trikes so cool to me is the simplicity of them, the fact that they were banned and the rarity of them. If they came out with new ones they would be fuel injected, and everything else and honestly I would probably not buy one, but that’s just me.

    I'd have to agree with that. I enjoy being one of the few guys at the Dunes with a trike. If they started to manufacture them, it would just be like owning a old quad.

    Would love to see a new trike in a showroom but it will never happen. Legal matters and the cost/demand will keep it that way.

    I hope they never come out with new trikes, too. One of the big thrills of riding ATC's is their history. If the market was flooded with new trikes, the 'cool factor' of our old trikes would evaporate in an instant. I realize that this is selfish, but I never claimed to be a decent person.
