I drove by St Boni Motorsports yesterday and had to go back to check out what was sitting outside. Called today and they are looking to get about $15,000 for one. Motorcycle License reqired in Minnesota to drive one, and own one. They wont be released till early 2008, and are starting produiction in fall 2007. They look a lot cooler in person! check out this link for info and pics. http://www.edmunds.com/insideline/do/Drives/FirstDrives/articleId=119581#14 St Boni Motorsports will have these there for test drives(need a cycle license) as a promo deal till sunday I believe. Its part of a us road tour for certain Can Am dealerships. They are taking deposits and I guess a lot of people have already put deposits down! Looks like a snowmobile on wheels ! Very cool and a great way to save on fuel!!
Oh yea, my co-workers and I were turning left on willow lake blvd (on 61, right where White Bear Subaru is, [be sure to buy a car from Ray & Peter, free advertising for you guys]) and saw 2 of them, a yellow one and a black one, making a right onto 61 south And we thought, wth are those things, and one of the guys noticed it looked like a snow mobile on wheels. I wouldn't mind one, looks fun to drive
They had a couple of them at Road America this past weekend for the AMA Races. They did a few laps on the track with em too. Pretty neat.
I wouldnt mind getting one, but have a lot of other things I need to spend the money on with the house and all. Still looks like fun though!
I was just back home in MN a week ago and me and my dad saw one. It doesn't look like it handles very well, but pretty intresting.
people who I met who rode one said it was no worse handling than the average touring bike, but it wasn't like riding a CBR 600 either. also it pretty much a bigger copy of the already existing Piaggio MP3, which actually handles better.
