As a southern dealer once told me about his customers:
A stick welder and a six pack, watch out.

Haha yeah it does kinda look fun. My first sportbike was a '90 600R so I guess I have a little (real little lol) soft spot for them. More than anything it looks great for getting stupid and getting mangled on...

Come on guys, this is one of the coolest things ever! You are all just jealous you didnt think of it. He should have just put can am decals on it & sold it as a spyder. 100mph trike. That definitely wont kill you. Do you think it can wheelie?

I must be getting old.
Looking at contraptions I no longer wonder whatsitlike to ride, but rather how much will it hurt when I crash.
This thing looks like a sure trip to the plaster cast and suturery ward.

So this is okay:
and the guy making his own is not?
it was obviously a project of "can i do it" more than "i have to do it"
with that mentality all guys doing mods on SuperHawks are idiots too?

I could not see that thing being a good hillclimber or even being any good off road. Even if you put a offroad or paddle tire in the back it would still be to heavy in the front with little traction in the back. It would just spin and plow. Now if he put the rear end of the raptor on it as well then you might have something fun!
