RE: [Nighthawk Lovers] Jay Leno's Garage Test Drive
It looks fun, and AC would be nice on a sandy beach, but they also look incredibly dangerous for the road to me. I suspect with LIMITED VISION AND VIISBILITY, they will have many more serious accidents. And you can't get away from it. It looks so Hollywood. Time will tell.

I won't even ride my bike on those days. -Kyle On Wed, Jun 27, 2012 at 9:26 AM, Javier Garcia jajgar...@gmail.comwrote: Well Kyle, you are right, but that would be comparing it with a car. If you compare doing your commute on a bike vs. this trike, I think it is a different story. Yes, you would be enclosed, but also you could be very well riding in shorts and t-shirt... plus not helmet, jacket and gloves. However, as the same Jay Leno said, you could very well put a 1400 cc engine that will easily handle an small compressor for A/C. Javier.

Assuming it has a heater and perhaps something traction control or ABS ish at least - I could see myself using one of these up here in the winter. I really can't use the bike, but the third wheel of the trike would work. I gotta say - its got me thinking. -Joey On Wed, Jun 27, 2012 at 10:58 AM, Javier Garcia jajgar...@gmail.com wrote: Even with that engine you could put AC. Back in Venezuela, folks that own old VW bugs will put the AC system of the Daewo Matiz (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Daewoo_Matiz). The compressor is really small and efficient. Since it was design for such an small engine, they work great on a 1.6L bug, putting almost no load on the engine. Put one of those on the trike and you will be riding in a freezer. Javier.
