    Back on the road after 20 years. 1983, 50cc, electric start and classified as a tricycle-moped. Invented by George Wallis of Surbiton, Surrey, UK and taken up by Honda, after BSA made a total mess of their version. Getting some curious looks. Bit weird to ride the front and rider tilt into bends like a two wheeler to keep the C of G over the inside wheel but the rear stays level and steers to follow the front wheel due to the inclined pivot axis. Access not easy and a bit complex to work on. Must have been expensive to produce. Rides well though 33 mph on the flat.

    Thanks for your interest. Bodywork was pretty good most is plastic. Engine was the main problem. Usual rusty fuel tank, gummed carb, seized piston etc. Engine spares still obtainable.
