I can't find anything from an owner. Looks decently engineered (leading link front fork with big tire, I really like the leg room), but weather protection looks very sparse. <br />

If you visit the factory in Germany, you can take a test ride <grin>.
 
I've got a 2001 Boom Trike Chopper...very reliable...has ALWAYS started and runs great. The original owner souped it up, within reason, and it's more fun than a monkey on a papaya!
 
I was just looking at the specs on this trike. Kind of interesting looking. As near as I can translate from the German. It has a VW engine. 11ft long, 7 ft wide, weighing 1486 lbs, max speed of 78 mph. Didn't notice a price.
 
Probably would have been easier if I wasn't half asleep:Coffee: waiting for an early flight and went to USA link posted above instead of working with German one. I see cost is $27k-$36k. Seems a little steep to me.
 
I don't know anything about them,but if the question was do you like it "HELL YES I DO" like the Rewaco also. It may not have a freeway flyer trans if that's the the top speed , I know mine will cruise at that speed and do a lot more . ThumbUp ThumbUp
 
They are well built. I am not sure if they ever got epa certification to sell in the us. This might explain why there arent many on the road.
 
I like the look of the nerf bars on them (more chrome).
Wish somebody made them (nerf bars ) for Gold Wings without running boards,lot more places to put your feet !
