KTM make 4wheelers? Sure do.

Well..... other than having a couple too many wheels the KTM XBow is pretty darn badass. I'd love to have one in the garage next to my bikes.

RC8 vs XBow youtube video
 
These have been around for a while. Polaris is coming out with something similar in the near future. If it were a little more practical I would be very Interested. Nonetheless, they're pretty damn awesome.

Top gear ran one against the rc8. It was an interesting watch.
 
^^Yeah, thats what I see. I never knew about it. Not sure how I missed it. Actually I was on a Google marathon last night looking into little kit cars getting ideas and wrecked late model liter bikes. I am planning on making a chassis and using a M/C engine just for something to do.

Then I stumbled onto the KTM and another cool one the Ariel Atom. I love em.
 
Lol. Isn't google awesome? Too bad they're going to build robots and take over the universe. Its like skynet all over again. I am hellbent on owning an Ariel atom. THAT would be a fun car. One day.... one day...

That sounds like a very interesting project! Sounds like hella fun. I've got a few spare dune buggy chassi, a spare 350, and some civic parts laying around... I've got a few plans for them once (if I ever) get the time.
 
Ha! Dam robots.

I found this guy that put a VTwin in a little exoskeleton car. Not the best engine placement IMO, but bet its a hoot to "drive". Check out the video.
 
Can't buy the KTM in the US. [down]

Polaris' Slingshot is interesting but it's huge. I saw one in mid-October. Price is about $25k.
