- You can find all the information you need on this trike on the web at the manufacture's site:

It has a Ford 4 cylinder 150hp engine, and it handles like a Super Mario Cart! If you are a biker and you want to meet to look at it I will consider that. It has every option offered by the manufacture, which include:
AC & Heat, Power adjustable peddles, Trunk Carpet, Trail Hitch, Cruse Control, Front Seat Backrest, Fog lamps, HID headlights.
I have added the following items: Custom LED underbody lights, LED side lights, Driver pouch, Wig/Wag headlight modulator, Remote Battery Terminal (without this you will need to take the rear tire off to charge or jump the battery), Additional antenna, J&N intercom and CB, Trunk Pouch, larger rear tires, wind deflectors, and power plug.
I have had all the major updates done to this trike, and it is in perfect mechanical condition and still under the factory warranty. Currently the 2011 models are not being offered due to Ford changing the motor. I am not sure if TBMS will even offer another model due to having to re-engineer the bike to fit the changed motors offered by Ford.
What sets my Stallion apart from the newer models is that this one is hand laid fiberglass with a custom gold and silver fleck candy apple paint with clear coats. This paint is truly amazing when you compare it to the new flatter paint on the new plastic bikes.
Only about 600-800 of these trikes have been made and they are truly amazing. Check out the technical data here:

Briefly here it is: 35-45mpg sipping regular gas. 143 hp weighing only 1,750lbs. 9.5 gallon fuel cell. With a top speed of 119 mph!

This is a turnkey built from the ground up as a trike, not a conversion kit. It is solid as a rock at all speeds! It is fully loaded, not stripped down like the new ones.
Will do. Won't be this year though. Maybe next summer. I have always (but never rode) liked trikes. I have rode motorcycles from Honda 100cc to 1000+ Gold wings. I am fairly strong, but @ 5"6 160lbs, not really a big guy. Unless I want a "scooter", "girls bike" or 500cc or less, I just don't feel safe on a BIG bike. Short legs + bike weight, etc = unstable. A trike seems so much more stable. Definitely easier to handle @ stops & low speeds. BTW how much is the Stallion, $25k-ish?
I almost popped a nut just "watching" this video. I can't even begin to imagine what must be the sheer, orgasmic like, ecstasy, of actually owning & driving 1 of these works of art! They are so beautiful/hot! I GOTTA have 1! I would love to take it on a road trip through the Adirondack, USA/Canadian Rocky, or Blue Ridge mountains, the deserts/south west USA, & or the Pacific north west. These look more "comfortable" to ride then a Can-Am Spyder & just as cool, if not maybe cooler!
Great way to show the Stallion from different perspectives!
Very cool, but the steering wheel is a little incongruous.
Bars, it needs bars!!
@rusteamn how about just the natural sound of the ride. that's what riding is about, isn't it? and i do apologize, I don't care much for a trike but i love this..there's just something about it.
nice bike i just wish you wouldn't have put that music on. I would have liked to hear it run and accelerate.
I saw one of these going up I-95 in South Carolina as I was going down a few years ago. I actually thought it was a customized BMW, or at least had the rear end of one.
it has a steering wheel! motorcycle riders will pass you and point.. and laugh..
@rusteamn If you are still selling it next year, I want this. I wish I had the money now!
