we got our first couple units already! we have a silver and a yellow one if any of yall are interested in checking them out. we are down here in Austin though at woods fun center. The yellow one is the only one we can actually sell though. http://www.qando.net/images/myspyder.jpg holler at me at 254 624 6698 if you have any questions.

Excuse my ignorance, but is that a converted snowmobile? What's it like to drive one?

[blk87coupe]

lol yeah the basic design is like a snowmobile. its pretty fun to drive, amazingly stable for a 3 wheel design. it has a 990 rotax engine so its got balls. its definitely an attention getter, i get tons of questions and comments every time i ride one.

I saw one driving down business 121 today and had to take time to figure out what it was. Whats the advantage of one of these things over a bike?

[ALLAN]

I've seen alot of them in the Tampa/St Pete area.
They need to make some in red.

[bonnie&clyde]

i $hit turds better looking than that, i dont know why anyone would buy one

[Txstang1]

I saw something simlilar looking to that on lower Grennville a couple weeks ago. He turned off a side street onto Greenville and boiled the tire for about 50 yards......it had a fat back tire and looked pretty damn pimp.

I saw one of these at the Stars game on wednesday .. I thought it looked cool

With gas close to 4 bucks a gallon, I see lots of things like that being sold. If it was in Red or black it would look good.

[blk87coupe]

they come in silver yellow and red. i wouldnt buy one but they are fun to drive.

Its all good as long as you have the window down yellin "Brake Check Muthafucka"
Or just put a kia body kit on the spyder, ultimate sleeper!

[blk87coupe]

took the can am for the night last night and rode it around more. it isnt so great in wet conditions, the traction control gets confused and it feels very sluggish (but controllable) its alot of fun in the twisties, it feels like you're on a mix between a atv and a formula 1 car or something. my wife didnt like riding on the back of it, but she said with a backrest it would have been better for her. she prefers my sv1000. :D it has a pretty narrow powerband, as long as you're in that powerband (5k to 9k) it hauls balls but below that its pretty weak. It would make a bad ass show bike, somebody needs to buy one and put a 315 drag radial or slick on the back of it and turbo it. :D :D

[lowthreeohz]

saw 10 or so rollin down hwy 10 back towards yami suzuki shop. i assume they got some in.
