Awesome Side By Side Two Seat Russian Trike - The Ultralight "Cruise"


I just stumbled upon an incredible "why didn't I think of that" Trike from Russia. It is side by side seating rather than Tandem, and is available in both 582 and 912 Rotax Models. I've sent an inquiry to the company owners to verify details, but they claim that they sell it in kit form and can ship around the world. No word as to whether the machine will be ELSA or SLSA legal. Check out the slick cockpit!


Some Details from their website:
