Default New Bill Could Make Polaris Slighshot Illegal




While this crosses over into the area of our road-going cousins, we're never too pleased to hear lawmakers are trying to take away what machines we can buy and ride:

It didn't pass as a motorcycle when it was first released in Texas. Not sure how much money it took, but they finally got it accepted. As someone who owns and rides motorcycles, it's still a car to me.

I'm guessing it won't be able to pass safety tests if it's deemed to no longer be a motorcycle.
