I guess that explains this message on all of the freeway signs lately.

I'm aware of the motorcycle's existence.

I'd sometimes like to tell Reliant Robin drivers how dangerous their car is . . .

They're usually looking twice for state troopers.

The Reliant Robin, as I forgot to note earlier, is taxed at motorcycle rates under British law, mainly due to having a curb weight of 992 lbs.

Does the Bombardier Can-Am Spyder count as a motorcycle? or is it an open-air three-wheeled car?



That Spyder thingy doesn't look too far away from being a "bubble car" like some of those old Cousin Itt three-wheel favorites like the Messerschmitt KR175/KR200.

I don't know about anywhere else but in NY State a three wheeler counts as a motorcycle and requires a motorcycle license to drive. This includes the NYPD three wheel scooters.

Just spent a fortune today on my two bikes, two tires, brakes, and a new battery for the '01 Sportster and a front tire and new tourpack clips for my FLHTP.

That's a bunch of things that you won't need to worry about this summer. I'm doing the high intensity lighting on mine. Kit lists for $500 without installation. Maybe we'll meet up at Americade.
