Hayabusa powered Darkside 3-wheeler kit

The best part? They're targeting $16k for the base kit.

"Resisting the urge to go off on any number of potentially challenging tangents, the overly simplistic answer to 'why' is a deeply personal drive to find a recreational vehicle that enthralls, excites and engages in equal measure, and yet which totally smashes the conventional 'cookie-cutter' kit car mould. Something which is accessible, engaging, appealing and totally immersive not just to drive, but to own. Something which blends the lunacy of a superbike with the purity of a purpose-built racing car, yet can be enjoyed at a price point that Ariel Atoms and BAC Monos can only dream of."
I really hope this thing becomes reality.

I think about all the things we could have done, all the miracles we could have achieved, if we were all just a little bit better than it turns out we are.

It says they're working on their demonstrator vehicle right now. Hopefully we'll see a running prototype soon.

They're also running a design competition for the body. That's going to be fun.

This thing would be bad ass with a powertrain out of a Zero electric motorcycle.
