I don't know if they still use it, but they used to have the 1.3L Suzuki Hayabusa engine. Plus, there's a version with a V-twin.

Hey, cj, i thought you sold the S13?

Last I yeard it was a yamaha 1600cc.

Apparently they oversteer like a porsche after a bad night on the town.  Unfortunately ive never been able to test this.

Three wheelers are pretty cool.. but I think I would rather have an Ariel Atom

I think the Atom would be more stable, but the T-rex would be faster. That would be a nice little feature for SCC or Top Gear.....

When it comes to such transports, I would have to stick with a Buell. Man, have you heard these things???

probably as a bike due to weight and engine. I'm not sure if you need a helmet, but i supose you do.

Cant remember where I read this, btu when they're sold in Quebec this year (model year 2006), thety're considered cars instead of bikes, so no helmet is needed, nor is a special Motorcycle License.  The same goes for Ontario.

(just realised that there's a dealership not 3 hours from my place...)
