    Found this quirky little four wheeled sport bike on Shineray product line up. I kind of wish companies with such tremendous manufacturing capabilities would stop producing dozens to types of odd machines and focus on maybe 3 or 4 type in each category that would yield long term profits and market share capture.

    Anyway, here's our latest 350cc hybrid of mystery!

    Hmmm. A tall 4-wheeler that doesn't lean into curves. That sounds like a product liability lawsuit waiting to happen. . .

    I agree, they're wasting their time producing quirky things like that.

    This shows that the Shineray management like cars!
    Without consciousness, space and time are nothing; in reality you can take any time -- whether past or future -− as your new frame of reference. Death is a reboot that leads to all potentialities.

    I can see a bunch of executives thinking..
    Exec A: "Hmmm...now how can we make this bike more like a car?"
    Exec B: "Yes! That is a great idea. You are a genius sir!"

    Then the head scratching ensues and two years later we have this.

    Stranger things have happened you know.

    Now that was a strange idea, lost Honda millions, mostly in the American legal system!

    True enough. It wasn't just these but all the three wheeled ATV's were found to flip over too easily. Unfortunately I never rode one so can't comment... either way, they certainly lost some money on it.

    I'm curious what places (countries) still sell the three wheeled ATVs?

    I love that ATV, I own one for about 2 months and it's awesome to drive it on the streets. It's very stable while drifting. I hope to see it with a bigger engine next summer.

    Great to hear you're riding one! We'd LOVE to know just about anything you can tell us about it!

    If you know any video links, it would also be great. I'd like to see how it rides.
