    I dont know if you guys have noticed, but around here WE HAVE THREE WHEELERS THAT STAND 20FT TALL! they are lime spreader trucks with three wheels and there street liegal!! they go up and down my road day after day about 50 mph! they take up almost the whole freaking road, they drive right through the towns and everything, This is the biggest thrtee wheeler ever, even if its comercial its still a three wheeler non the less and one that is street liegal, boy I bet if the farmers cought wind of this they would F' the cpsc up! I remeber when i was a kid when all this went down, a freind of mine had a atc 110 and was riding it on his property and the cops came out and said that he couldnt ride it any more ( *Edited**Edited**Edited**Edited**Edited**Edited**E dited* ass cops) then his dad got rid of it and we didnt have any thing to ride then, we grew up riding three wheelers nobody can take our right to ride what we choose to ride, what about motorcycle trike conversions? I see a crazy amount of goldwings and harleys on the road with trike conversions, hell I even have three wheeler liscence (X on georgia liscense) wtf!? why would they still have that?

    This was never the law (not being allowed to ride them) - why would the cops do that?????? - Are you sure about that?

    yes that really happend, what I think went down is some crooked cops just wanted to mess with some kids, we were living in the city at the time (Chicago) and had an acre to play on, I was 8 when it happend, perfectly clear, we were in his back yard and the cops kept driving by finally they pilled in and my freinds dad came out and they told hime that htree wheelers were illegal now and that we had to get off of it or they were going to take it, my freind started crying, It sucked, they were just bad cops, probabalyu wanted it for there kid or something, well that hung with me for a long time and i never saw any more three wheelers any more, so i thought it was true, till i moved down here to south ga, and they were everywhere! and i ended up getting a 200 m 84 or something model, never really got the full story till now, thanks guys

    Alot of people thought that when the ban went into effect that they were illegal and they put them in storage. Thats how alot of these Mint trikes get on ebay.

    You blokes have to stop arguing amongst yourselfs and start drowning your politicians and the CSPC in letters and emails.

    They are infringing on your rights in the pretence of safety.

    Trikes can rollover in some situations, so can quads, so can tractors, and 4WDs, and cars, and snow mobiles. Motorbikes can slideout and riders can fall off them just like on rollerskates, and skatebords. Everything out there that uses wheels to move has the potential to fall over and riders have the potential to fall off.

    Thats is why you have to learn how to operate/ride them, that is why you should wear a helmet. I don't understand why your CSPC is targeting you trike guys?

    I'm just now reading this thread.

    If we could come up with a common paragraph or complaint with some stats in it, I would call them everyday on the way home from work. Maybe death #'s by chainsaws or weedeater or drinking drano or something.

    I like the sound of that.

    I am definently ready to take some sort of responsible action. I am going to draft up a letter some time soon. Other stats to include is a good idea.

    I have not heard anymore about this, I think whatever they were going to do they've already done.
