many things to consider before producing and marketing Harley-Davidson's project of three-wheeled model


Wisconsin - Harley-Davidson (HD) had any intention of producing a model of three wheel (trike). But, not as it has been sold to two display behind the wheel. On the contrary, the front two wheels. And sketch ever exhibited in January 2007.


However, before showing a sketch, it turns the wheels of two American producers were already making a prototype. Only, instead of homemade, but John Buttera. Modificator from Wisconsin who has a great specialist for custom and race cars, the deliberately requested by HD to create a prototype three-wheeled Harley.



John has created a three-wheeled motorcycle (two front and one rear) since 1998. Harley currently working on projects completed in 2006 and even patented by HD.

Somehow, though, Harley chose to close this project. "The project of three-wheeled motorcycle has seen potential, yet many things to consider before marketing a product," wrote the company, as reported by autoblog (4 / 8).

This product is now filling the Harley museum and there are no plans from the company to bring products to market. In fact, HD trike on the market can compete with the Cam-Am Spyder.
