Just saw an ad from Motor Trike, a company in Troup Texas, that converts Harleys and GoldWings to Trikes. They have created a new company called "Thoroughbred Motorsports". They are starting to build a new Trike that will be called "The Stallion". "It will be powered by Ford Motor Company components". Further on in the ad, it states:

*Power to weight ratio of a Corvette.
*Better fuel economy than a hybrid.
*5 Speed Automatic Transmission.
*Air Conditioning and heat for the passenger and driver.
*11 Gallon Fuel Cell.
*7 Cubic Foot Trunk.
*Front and Rear Billet Wheels.

See it at their Beach Street store in Daytona during Bike Week.

Designed & Engineered by Thoroughbred Motorsports
Powered by Ford


I ride two wheels, not three, however I will make sure that when I go to Daytona for Bike Week, I will go and have a look see. I have always said that when I get too old to ride two wheels, I will get a Convertible, not a Trike.
I will be interested in seeing what engine and what transmission will be used in it. (Also how it looks).

I haven't seen this vehicle yet, but the company is just up the road from me near Tyler. I've been planning on riding (the bike) up there to see it.

I bet its the pushrod engine and not the 4V mod motor. A mod motor trike would be huge.
