It reminds you of an RC? Now there's a stretch... That's like saying an XB Lightning reminds you of a Speed Triple :rolf:

 

[R13]

I mean...

:rolf:

 

[94RS]

Until you see that the XB is a single piece and the Triumph are clearly two separate housings :lol:

^ CityX headlights had the cage

 

[R13]

To a normal person one just looks like a cheap knock off of the other though :lol:

 

[94RS]

You should know by now there's nothing "normal" about Buells or their owners... It was even their fucking slogan in the 90s :rolf:

 

[R13]

:lol:

"Sport chopper."

First take in that lovely English, then notice how sporty it is with it's weight savings in the brake department.

The first trike was almost cool until the 12k price tag. Should be 4K max.

And I have one of those chopper bikes. They only came with a rear brake :lol:

Which that "sport chopper" doesn't have :rolf:

 

[R13]

It's there, just looks like the cable is missing :lol:

 

[94RS]

There's a lot missing for that thing to be worth $300...


The shit people advertise...
https://tampa.craigslist.org/hil/mcy/6033106310.html

Trike implies 3 wheels, not 4....

 

[R13]

That would fucking eat the rear tire on the bike...

 

[94RS]

Sad thing is that they're really common here..... Assholes even go as far as putting that shit on a 150cc scooter.


Just imagine adding all that weight to something that struggles to do 50.

 

[R13]

There's a reason the training wheels that used to come as a factory option for like pw50's and shit sat 2-3 inches off the ground. Let's it lean a little and keeps it from "twisting" the tire around on pavement. Has a similar effect to a welded/solid diff.

Found my next bike...
