First Ride Testing & Teaser

TreMoto have ridden the 3Z1 in three test sessions. These are a couple of spy shots from the maiden shakedown run. Initially we have run with conservative lean stops set at about 35 degrees to prove out geometry etc but continued testing this afternoon will allow us to increase our angle towards the 50 degree design target. We have also made some ride height adjustments but brakes, engine etc check out ok. Last night we stayed in Oklahoma City with Michael Ryan from USAF and did some more skipad-style testing in an undisclosed parking lot.

Also, if you haven't seen it check out the new YouTube video below. It truly was an herculean effort to get the trike built in time. Thanks again to Rob McIver, Dave Smith, Jeffrey Ferguson and Joey Trussel for making it happen! See you in Colorado Springs tonight.
