Conversion
Edited Date/Time:
Death bike. Now available in a lower emissions model lol
when in doubt, pin it out
A couple years ago my dad and I were hanging out drinking and he goes ... "Son I have done something... and I need you to drive me to drive me to pick these up" shows me the phone.... Immediately thought "God help us. I'm home for a funeral and now there are going to be 2 more fatalities because if these 3 wheelers don't kill us my mom definitely will." needless to say, 3 wheelers are an absolute riot, they DID almost kill us, and my mom was pissed... And I'm glad I was on a flight across the country 2 days later. Every time I go back to NH I make sure I blast around on those a bit.
Having rode those turds, i can imagine that Alta would be the most terrifying, and awesome, motorized thing that I have ever ridden.
Ummm..... no. Not today, nor tomorrow. Not ever.
But, I’ll give whoever a nod on creativity.
There is one positive I see to that thing. At least the cheesy chinese looking side panels are gone.
When done right, any bike looks cool as an ATC conversion. I love looking at them. I'd never own one, though!
Trikes take me back to the days of being a kid in 80's wearing out every dirt related magazine I could get my hands on. Didn't care if it was a dirt bike, quad, three wheeler, or sandrail, because anything you could rip in the dirt was badass. Dirt bikes were the best of course, but I specifically remember seeing that green and blue tecate three wheeler, man that thing was cool. I currently value my earnings too much to be wasteful on something like this, but I'd probably buy or build one under different circumstances. They're certainly not any less dumb than a shiny $80k four door longbed lifted diesel mall crawler.

Me too. It's a generation thing in most cases for those who dont get the whole ATC thing. For most of us who where around back then these things take us back to a simpler time.

Remember the trails with 3 lines???
vomiting equals disqualification.
Rode dirt bikes during the 70's. I was decent.
After becoming pretty good on a 3 wheeler during the 80's, I was never again as good on a bike. Really hard to go back with the same confidence.
