I read on a Polaris/Victory site that Can-Am is coming out with a 3-wheeler soon.
I assume this bike would use the 800cc or 1000cc V-Twin Rotax engine.

Any of you guys have insider information on this bike?
- does it lean?
- auto-tranny option or only manual?

For comparison, this is the Piaggio 3-wheeler (250cc & 400cc):

Bombardier in the street bike world....haha common. Sure they have thumpers that put down 65hp being a 800 v twin....but yamaha can make a 500 four stroke put down 80hp....bomb has along ways to go if they are entering the street bike/sport bike world. But a street legal quad would be wikid...based on a ds650 or something.

its no secret the BMW enduros have rotax engines, which is where the DS650 motor came from, and the latest F from BMW is the F800 that has a rotax 800 twin side by side cylinder (not a V) with EFI that produces 85hp and is a manual shift 6 speed, and this motor is 10 pounds lighter than a ds650 motor to boot. It'd be awesome if this motor found its way into a DS chasis, maybe this might be a powerplant for a Can-Am enduro as well....
The inverted trike is intrigueing, but I have to say "why?"
