Here ya go, my Ruckus and my Chevy! Guess which is more reliable and gets MUCH better gas mileage?  Anyways: Ruckus- Shock from battlescooter store, lowered turn signals, raised front part of seat, pegs, badass bicycle drink holder that I can't live without now. Its very dirty, all these Kansas roads. 1957 Chevrolet Bel-Air- Chevy v8, no power steering, cruise control etc, 2 speed automatic tranny, car is fun as hell. 2002 Durango, mom's car and can't touch it  Now to the pictures:       |

Right on ! ..  .. I like em both. Diggin the drink holder, and surprised to see someone else with the front of the seat jacked; more comfortable for long legged Ruckus pilots. Pic's from everyone else please ! Post them on Web-shots it's easy and free ! ;D Plus great desk-top backgrounds. |

When I go out to just.. ride and not necessarily get anywhere I am out for hours and can get pretty thirsty! Or when I go to a fast food place and then when I leave I still have some of my drink left I bring it with me. |

Next thing that is going on Rufus the Ruckus is a drink holder. I went to get coffee before class the other day and they took so long that I had to scoot.
I didn't have any place to put it so I put two lids on (holes opposite of one another) and put it under my seat lodged between my backpack and rain jacket. Not a drop spilled, but now I know there's an easier way.
Which is a better place for one(floor or handles)?

I hope to one day be able to afford way more automobiles than I'll ever need... and to have a woman to "edit profanity" at me about it...

It's named is Trihawk. It was a joint venture of Citroen and Maserati. It had a 4cyl 180 degree V configuration motor. It was a five speed and the front wheels drove, steered and braked, The trailing wheel was just for suspension and also had a brake. It was made in Dana Point Ca. They were made from '85 to about '88. There are probably only a handful left as a lot were wrecked as they would really scoot. I took my foot out at 120MPH, it would go faster and only had 75BHP, but it was ultra light. I sold it to one of the original design team who is also the inventor of Linux. It now lives just outside Chicago. If you want to see more pics I can send them directly to you.
When production ceased Harley Davidson bought the molds and the rights to produce it for 3 million and then shelved the project..too bad. The Trihawk was in a movie, Cherry 2000 in the beginning. Movie was with Ben Johnson, David Andrews and Melanie Griffith. The star drove a yellow hawk. It was good movie, probably avail on video.
