…and get up to Auburn a lot. Okay, probably wasn’t you.

While I’d never own a little 50cc scooter, I love seeing them on the road.
The bigger Burgmans are getting to be really popular around here with the touring crowd (have three of them in my work parking lot, the guys love ’em as a perfect bike for long distance touring and commuting in city traffic).

But the MP3, that thing is just a marvel of technology. I love it. Congrats on getting the most stable bike short of a Can Am Spyder

Oh, and if anyone gives you gruff for having a trike – Harley just submitted a patent for a Cruiser that is half-way between the MP3 and a CanAm Spyder…

Yes, I had heard about the Harley trike. Below are some of the pictures from their 2006 patent application (looks like a leaning Can-Am to me)

Over on an MP3 forum there is a lot of pent up demand from ex-bikers who are looking for the stability of 3 wheels but on a more powerful bike (and with gears). There is a guy in Seattle who even built his own! I’ve never met him but a local Meetup group ran into him once and took these pictures.

That is SO COOL. Mainly cause he did it himself.
