Saw a second Polaris Slingshot in our area. If anyone seriously wants a year round motorcycle then I suggest a CBR 300 with a heater core, Maxxis dual purpose tires, and a Vetter style body shell. You could get double the mpg for roughly the same price as Elio.

I recommend we try rolling our own:
WTF Friday: Triked Out | Stance Is Everything

I think this may have gotten some play in EM back in the day but I can't find it. It was a homebrew with, weirdly, a Harley engine turning a Subie transmission. I can't fathom why you would do that when you could retain the full width front end including the stock fenders and begin the taper immediately abaft the front wheels, which would permit you to keep the stock engine and drivetrain. If more power was the goal, the builder could have upgraded the engine to a G13B. One hundred horsepower in this featherweight, low-drag configuration would be pretty lively, and it bolts right up to an otherwise stock transmission.
