RE: [Nighthawk Lovers] Jay Leno's Garage Test Drive

2012-06-28 Thread TRASH
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.

  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.

Assuming it has a heater and perhaps something traction

  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

 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.
