4-wheel Motorcycle?

peon
Saw one on the highway today for the first time. Body of the bike appeared to look like a normal crotch-rocket style bike, but had four wheels sticking way out to the sides. I would imagine all the wheels would have to tilt with the bike when making a high-speed turn. Anyone know who manufactures such a bike?

    Could have been a custom build.

    I know Can-Am is making a 3 wheeled monster that looks cool.

    Probably one of those stupid voyager kits.
    cost about 4 grand and kill the handling of a bike.

    Lightning is right. It is the voyager system. Its only good for getting home on Fri & Sat nights after the bars close. You can not spill the bike.
    As for proformance, well it will almost kill you to make a turn from a stop. Good for building upper arm power, other wise handles like a car on the road.
    Had one for 3 years.

    Piaggio makes a three wheeled one that leans like a bike. It's called the MP3.

    No, they don't lean with the bike. They're just like training wheels on a bicycle. Popular on Gold Wings for the guys who can't afford a trike conversion.
    And speaking of....the trike conversions handle terrible! Any irregularities in the road make it rock side to side and shake the handlebar. Imagine an old 3 wheel ATV weighing half a ton and going 55mph! Man, are they popular but I just can't imagine why! And the cost is about as much as the Gold Wing itself!
    Oh well, different strokes as they say!
