From the pictures you posted, this looks similar to the T-Rex, also from Canada. Is it related? Do you have specs. of the vehicle? Thanks.

Americade is about 100 miles south of you in Lake George , NY a lot of your Canadian buddies come down on wee motor scooters . The Americade is the first full week in June . I believe it starts on the 7th this year. Check out <a href="http://www.tourexpo.com/data/" target="_blank">Tour Expo - World's Largest Touring Rally - Lake George, New York</a> 35,000 motorcycles I saw 6 of the T REX type there. We will talk more about it in April . Motel accomodations are tuff to get.

Welcome to Trike Talk, Fiorano. This is pretty much a "run whatcha brung" fourm. We have a fair mix of different trikes -- 1f 2R, or 2f 1R & I think we might even have a few sidecars. We have factory builts, motorcycle conversions, VW conversions, "mix & match" home builts -- a little of everything. We have people who only ride 'em, people who fix 'em & people who build 'em. Undoubtedly, you'll fit in here fine.<br />

Like so many of the traditional "tadpole" designs, your reverse trike is much more a sports car than a motorcycle. After all, we sit IN cars, but ON motorcycles. <br />
<br />
But oh, what a car you've come up with and at a very nice price too! Good luck with it! <img src="images/smilies/grin.gif" border="0" alt="" title="big grin" class="inlineimg" /><br />

</div>If memory serves the first 'automobile' was a 1F/2R trike built by Karl Benz. The driver/rider and passenger sat atop it and it didn't have a steering wheel or handlebars. <g>
