Or you could use the parts to make a CB500F Scrambler!

Honda should just offer the CB500x Rally Raid setup from the factory

Yep, exactly. I will say that I think the sub-1000cc ADV’s might be even better, such as the Wee-Strom 650 or the Triumph Tiger 800 or the Honda CB500X or NC700. A little less weight, a little lower seat height, and probably not much if any less capable on or off road. But I haven’t ridden those bikes yet

you’re right, but Eagle rider doesn’t rent sport bikes.

Me and a buddy rented a pair of Triumph Explorer’s in Vegas and did a big loop around the grand canyon, hitting Lake Powell and Zion along the way so I got to spend a solid 700 miles on the thing. 99% paved roads, but we hit a few dirt roads with some soft sand along the way.

Hahaha, yep you’re right. I drive by that place every other day

My 85 MR2 began overheating badly several years ago. After flushing the radiator and miles of coolant lines many times I eventually decided it had to be the headgasket that was blown.

Not quite the same, but it won’t break down on you....as frequently

I would be 100% ok with that

I was cracking up at the “duuude”! It was so weird and awesome to hear an american accent on an F1 radio

now thats a jeep! it just looks fun!

OMG I want this sooo bad. The canvas top is kinda neat/weird, but a renegade based truck would be sweet!

Now i’m probably going to spend the rest of the afternoon shopping for new wheels and slicks for my MR2

Just because they patented something does not mean it actually works or that an actual functioning example actually exists. It simply means they have a design for an inverter thats new, novel, or different enough from existing designs to be awarded a patent.

This thing just makes me happy. Every little detail is simply fantastic. Its such a weird-yet-perfect retro-futuristic thing that has so many neat little details. The regular gas powered 3 wheeler looks great and I’m sure its a hoot to drive, but this just does something to me. I’ve never had this strong of a desire…

The Kawasaki Vulcan S has a parallel twin from the Ninja 650 I think

So basically Victory made their own version of the Scout. The engine and frame look different, but they’re probably based on the same architecture. The fork looks like the same one off the scout too. I love the Scout and this is a step in the right direction like you said, but I wish they took a slightly bigger step

I had a similar thought. If it’s a situation where you actually own it and its a completely autonomous car (no manual mode, steering wheel, etc.) you’ll probably have some sort of insurance in case of damage or personal harm, but I think it’ll need to be separate from any insurance you have for a normal car.

they need to quit complicating things. Make it the Toyota GT86 like everywhere else and call it good.

I hope they do. Rebadge them all as Toyota’s, especially the FR-S, call it the GT86 like it deserves
