As much motorcycle as this is..
http://roosterteeth.com/forum/viewTopic.php?id=1862176 Dodge Tomahawk, based around the viper engine. Not truly a scooter, but obviously not a car. Quad? Maybe by definition, but certainly not by purpose. Sadly, must we call it a "crossover"? |

I've been waiting for a street legal quad to come out for years. This might be it. Fed DOT would have to work overtime defining a four wheeled vehicle as a motorcycle.

A tilting quad should brake and corner better than a two wheeler. The Quad4 may be the shape of things to come (rather than the Triumph TR&7 sports car).

The tomahawk isn't street legal, and only had a run of 12 machines, I believe. Still, the best part of it was that it was actually built, instead of just a concept machine, making Dodge the only US auto manufacturer to actually have produced motorcycles.. So, if you have an old Viper engine laying around, and need a project...
Browsing around again just brought up this Feb. 2015 article. Dodge is in the company of Lotus, Ferrari, and Lambo when it comes to high end bike design.. http://www.lifestylecn.com/motorcycl...ry-automakers/ Last edited by novaraptor; 06-16-2015 at 04:32 PM. Reason: found new cool stuff |
