Holy Honda Mod, Batman! Hawk 3-Wheeler looks like Batmobile Meets Rocket
There are quite a few three-wheelers these days: Aptera, Myers Motors and ZAP! Motors. And while those companies seem to be blocked from government funding, it isn’t stopping designers like 22-year-old Alex Hodge from New Zealand from churning out kickass mods like the Hawk.
The Hawk concept is part fighter jet, part sports car, and looks like it’s balls-out fun! The concept is built around the 999cc Honda RC51 V-twin engine has 10,000 rpm, 120 hp and a top speed of 144 mph.

It has a fiberglass body with a pod-style cab, comes trimmed in lightweight plastics and leather. And it all rides on 19-inch alloyed wheels equipped with twin rear and front disc brakes. Oh, and did you look at the pictures…it’s freakin hot!
But here’s the half empty, you Batman-a-bes won’t be seeing this concept anytime soon. Sorry. Have to save the mantyhose for another day.

That is awesome! Too bad its just a concept. I’d love to drive (ride) it. I want to let you guys/girls know about a new company called Green Earth Technologies (www.getg.com). They have created a “green” biodegradable motor oil that is SM certified by the API. It’s the first of its kind. The product should hit store shelves in June 2009. Very easy to become “greener” with this, just switch motor oil brands.
Nice but its the same thing as this http://www.autobloggreen.com/2007/05/11/comet-ev-coming-from-china-to-challence-the-ventureone/
with a modded front and bigger wheels. Seems pretty derivitive.
