Quadro 4D - a scooter with four wheels

[Jezuz]

I saw today that Quadro (Italian brand, most parts made in Taiwan by Aeon) had presented a 4-wheel scooter, the 4D

I am familiar with their 3-wheel scooter line, and have seen some different than this one 4-wheel prototypes by them, but saw a video for this one and was quite impressed.




YouTube Video

I was thinking of maybe getting a scooter for around town next summer, and was impressed by this one, but I am not sure I'd want to spend 2 times (or more) as much as I'd spend for a smaller scooter to get this one.
What are your thoughts?

the worst part about getting a scooter is telling your parents that youre gay.

Seeing these make me think of the posers who ride can ams... makes me mad to see those guys on the road, haha only reason you should be on 3 wheels, is A) you're a pussy. B) Injured vet, or C) old age. But 90% of the time it's that fat guy in a mid life crisis. (with the baseball hat backwards like a douche)

A lot of engineering in that thing but I'd never be caught on one. There is only 1 true scooter in my mind, a Vespa.

i don't get it? just adds cost to operate and upkeep. AND IT DOESN'T CHANGE THE FACT THAT ITS A SCOOTER!

 

[anrkizm95]

not a big fan of scooters but thats pretty freaking cool.

The Quadro 4D reminds me a little of the Dodge Tomahawk concept, at least the wheels.

Ya know scooters are kinda like fat chicks....


They're are alot of fun to ride!.... until your friends find out

hahaha, I like the comments!
Scooters is a totally different thing in Europe, and epsecially in Mediterranian countries, than it is in the US, so I guess I posted in the wrong forum
We live close to the beach, and jumping on a scooter for a quick ride to the beach bar or to get something from the market is all too common, for all kinds of people. Finding a parking spot for your car (that is boiling hot inside), or wearing full gear to ride under the hot sun is an issue during the summer.
Also, my girlfriend moved to Athens, and every time I visit her I spend hours (literally) stuck in traffic, or looking for a spot to park the car, I and usuing the Buell for a commuter in heavy traffic with a pillion is not a good idea. It's chaos here!

i cant believe people are such losers that they judge someone by what they drive. [down]

What's the worst part about not having a sense of humor? (telling your parents you're gay)

And way to bring up a thread from 4 days ago after even the op saw the humor in the posts. The fact is most people here don't know jack about scooters except for seeing a few custom Honda ruckus scooters on the forum.

I just noticed something. See anything familiar on the wheels of the Tomahawk?
