Scorpion Trikes' V-Rod Conversion is Set to Strike





If you've got a Harley-Davidson V-Rod and some money for modifications burning a whole in your pocket, take a look at this Scorpion Trikes reverse trike kit.

This is an early April Fools joke, right? Seriously though, WTF? If you want a Can Am, go buy a Can Am. Why take a Harley and butcher it into this monstrosity?


I have ridden a friends Can Am and let me tell you, its no fun! You have to physically work at it. Its a job and every turn is a physical challenge.


This thing is also the ugliest thing I have ever seen.

Butt ugly is an understatement. I'm just trying to figure out why!

Thumbs down Scorpion Trike

You either like something or you don't. This trike conversion falls in the category of DON'T like. It's just not aesthetically pleasing to the eye, at least not to my eye.

It does look different!
There aere some advantages to being reversed. When a bike is triked like we are us to seeing, a big loss of power happens. The suspension is costly. Lot of extra cost is involved.
But with a reversed trike the power will be only very slightly less. ,weight.
I think with a little different front it could look cool.
