tomin40 Posted June 6, 2008 Report Share Posted June 6, 2008 Those Japanese always come up with some crazy stuff. I couldn't imagine trying to ride one of these with the weight of the tow on the back end, let alone with a car attached. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SpaceGhost Posted June 6, 2008 Report Share Posted June 6, 2008 Wouldn't braking be kinda scary? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SAMBUSA Posted June 7, 2008 Report Share Posted June 7, 2008 Great idea. I think they've been in use in the Great Britain area for some time now. That'd make being a tow truck driver cool. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jon_SV650 Posted June 7, 2008 Report Share Posted June 7, 2008 that is pretty sweet...that would make towing much more enjoyable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vectorvictor Posted June 8, 2008 Report Share Posted June 8, 2008 Yea that would be great except when some jack ass cuts you off and you T-bone the car with 3000 lbs of car and trailer behind you. No amount of disk brakes will help you if you arent there to squeeze the trigger. God forbid you try to low side the bike to avoid the t-bone and the trailered car runs you over!!!Its a good idea except for that issue with me. NEWS REPORT...... Another Asian was rund over by the car he was towing with his motorcycle today .. They picked the bike up at mile marker 94 and installed a new rider to return the vehicle to police post 60...

DangBruhY Posted June 8, 2008 Report Share Posted June 8, 2008 Maybe if it was a trike... But all that weight with those little two patches of tire touching the ground... Bad idea... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
