TRIKES are for the AGING, HANDICAPPED, LESS ABLE as well as TRIKE LOVERS of ALL ages!
I even have one...lol...but I can't ride it on our Canadian highways!
TRANSPORT CANADA has decided in their infinite wisdom to disallow TRIKES of any kind in their assembled state as an Import to Canada, regardless if it meets height and safety requirements!
They will allow all other makes of Motorcycles, Cars, Trucks, Semi-Trucks, Boats and any and all other vehicles you can name but not assembled Trikes!
HAVE YOU EVER HEARD ANYTHING MORE ABSURD??
I have a Thoroughbred Stallion that my husband has salvaged and fixed but I can't ride it on our Canadian highways.
I'm sure you've all seen this trike??
It is the most absolute fun in riding and traveling that you can find on 2, 3 or 4 wheels. It not only has a steering wheel, it also has a Ford Fusion Engine and Automatic Transmission, air ride, adjustable brake and throttle control, tilt steering column, cruise control, heat and air-conditioning, 7cu ft of cargo trunk space etc. etc. etc. I could go on forever with this Trike but why not just go see the official site and check it out?
No Canadians are allowed to have one of these incredible machines and unless someone buys the franchise, sets up an assembly plant, imports the parts and assembles them here in Canada ...we are "s@#t" out of luck!
And that's not going to happen because they are too busy trying to fill the orders they have in the USA
I have mine because it was in an accident in British Columbia, needed repairs and was subsequently left here in Canada.
Thanks to my incredibly talented husband, I now have a fully functional Trike that needs a little fiberglass repair.
Not that it matters at this point because I will probably have to sell it back to the U.S.A on eBay or something.
The thought of that just breaks my heart!!!
If you had one in your driveway like i do, you would understand my angst.
Anyway, thanks for listening to the ranting of this Aging, Disabled Lady Rider and please take the time to oin my Group on FaceBook CALLING ALL CANADIAN/AMERICAN MOTORCYCLISTS...WE NEED YOUR HELP!!!
and post/share it on your FaceBook if you believe that this is AN INCREDIBLY STUPID LAW and that it should be changed and changed very soon....V (",
