Got offered one the other day and had to say yes. Wheelie machine and interesting to ride to say the least. Thumb throttle and two rear brakes, hand and foot the hand one can be locked to use as a hand brake. The tyres run 2psi and act as the suspension.
Its in pretty good condition considering its been in a shed for a long time, a few decals have fallen off and the tail light lens is missing but apart from that its all good.

Yep a 175cc and it goes hard. The problem is you have to lean the opposite way or it doesn't turn at all, even if you push it around it wont turn. This thing is hard core and things would get out of control very fast. _________________ ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ |

Well, of course !
Would love a go on one. I've ridden a few different quads and had a great time without managing (yet) to run myself over. They make a lot more sense on loose dirt where the rear wheels can do their own thing. Not sure how stable a 3-wheeler would be though.
I always loved the look of the Tri-Z250. Just need somewhere to use one...
