This vehicle may seem yellow. NOT. It's brave & valiant enough: 7800+ miles so far - with most of those miles on I494 (Minneapolis), over half during a winter in the 1980s much like recent ones there (except less snow!). Actually this "motorcycle" is VERY ""GREEN"": apx 58 to 68 MPG @ 40mph; apx 52 to 57 MPG @ 55 mph. 9-gallon tank. SUN roof! Note seat-belt, passenger seat, and left/right window pop-out setting possibilities for air-flow/cooling... Windshield wiper action about 12 seconds into video. Fully automatic transmission - no gears!

Mattel's Stallion Trike
You can find all the information you need on this trike on the web at the manufacture's site:
http://www.thoroughbred-motorsports.com/
It has a Ford 4 cylinder 150hp engine, and it handles like a Super Mario Cart! If you are a biker and you want to meet to look at it I will consider that. It has every option offered by the manufacture, which include:
AC & Heat, Power adjustable peddles, Trunk Carpet, Trail Hitch, Cruse Control, Front Seat Backrest, Fog lamps, HID headlights.
I have added the following items: Custom LED underbody lights, LED side lights, Driver pouch, Wig/Wag headlight modulator, Remote Battery Terminal (without this you will need to take the rear tire off to charge or jump the battery), Additional antenna, J&N intercom and CB, Trunk Pouch, larger rear tires, wind deflectors, and power plug.
I have had all the major updates done to this trike, and it is in perfect mechanical condition and still under the factory warranty. Currently the 2011 models are not being offered due to Ford changing the motor. I am not sure if TBMS will even offer another model due to having to re-engineer the bike to fit the changed motors offered by Ford.
What sets my Stallion apart from the newer models is that this one is hand laid fiberglass with a custom gold and silver fleck candy apple paint with clear coats. This paint is truly amazing when you compare it to the new flatter paint on the new plastic bikes.
Only about 600-800 of these trikes have been made and they are truly amazing. Check out the technical data here:
http://www.thoroughbred-motorsports.com/tm2technical.aspx
Briefly here it is: 35-45mpg sipping regular gas. 143 hp weighing only 1,750lbs. 9.5 gallon fuel cell. With a top speed of 119 mph!
You can see my bike on this video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NNUyXKz8fME
This is a turnkey built from the ground up as a trike, not a conversion kit. It is solid as a rock at all speeds! It is fully loaded, not stripped down like the new ones.
"Pedicar" Роберта Бундшуха
В 1971 г в США опытный авиационный инженер Роберта Бундшух разработал веломобиль под названием «Pedicar» («Педикар»). Первые прототипы увидели свет в 1972 г. Наибольшую известность веломобиль получил в 1973-1974 гг во время разгара топливного кризиса.В 1972 г было построено три предсерийных Педикара для зондирования рынка и рекламных акций. Любопытно, что все три экземпляра были выкрашены в броский желтый цвет, делая веломобиль хорошо заметным на дороге. В 1973 г планировался наладить серийный выпуск и продать 15 000 веломбилей в год, доведя со временем выпуск Педикаров до 50 000 веломобилей в год. Это были воистину наполеоновские планы, которым не суждено было сбытся. После шквала статей про Педикар в 1972-74 гг, Педикар и его создатель неожиданно исчезают из поля зрения общественности. Проект полностью сворачивается. Точное количество выпущенных Педикаров неизвестно и остается загадкой.

Three Wheel High Gas Mileage Motorcycle
This is a high gas mileage motorcycle that I designed and built in 1980. It was designed to get up to 100 miles per gallon. It was powered by a Honda 550cc motorcycle. The Gull-Wing doors are not shown in this video that was shot by our local television station. The fiberglass body was made of Corvette materials over a tubular steel roll cage and chassis.
Water Powered Car Inventor was Killed!
http://SaveGasForums.com
This is an old clip shown about 20 years ago of a local inventor holding many patents on his dune buggy style car. His name was Stanley Meyer. Look his name up, and you'll get to know more about his invention, and the mysterious way he "died".
For all the people out there saying this is some kind of scam, you should take the time to read up on the numerous personal achievements of people who have successfully created their own water-powered cars.
ALSO, take the time to look into the companies that have successfully created water powered cars. A Japanese company in another one of my videos has done just this!
