Getting off work today at 3:30, the Elio will be here until 6pm so I'm going to run over there an take a look at it - sit in it if I can - try to take some pics finally. It is going...

    Whoohooo..2015 is here. Ready to see some 3 wheel action. Not the Polaris slingshot. I did ride in one the other day, "just to see". Pretty cold ride I might ad. Go Elio - the All weather 3 wheeler.

    Personalized License Plate

    I think New Mexico has a 6 character plate for motorcycles. That is if the Elio uses the motorcycle plate. Sent from my XT1049 using Tapatalk

    Elio Coming To New Mexico On The Road Show

    Great news Ty. I just emailed Elio and got the same response above. I thought I had some hot news off the press, you beat me to it. ha ha. I can't wait to actually see one in person this year. And only 5 months after that - the cars should be in production - Fingers crossed.

    Hi From Albuquerque!

    I've seen a few pictures of the Elio in a 2 tone color and it looks awesome. Maybe some racing stripe's on it from front to back. My secondary color would have to be the Blue one.

    Nice one Blueskybob for the tardis. I'm sure when the Elio is finally on the road we will be seeing some good custom license plates out there Sent from my XT1049 using Tapatalk

    Hello From Albququerque

    Thanks ty. I have a little wiring to finish. Mount the seat and rework the front brake caliper but I am pretty close. I don't have a garage so it is weather dependent when I can work on it. That CBR 1100 is a serious bike that us one I wouldn't mind owning. I do have another RD350 in parts...

    Minimum Expectations

    My expectations would be, Like your suggestion, 1200lbs of composite and metal. A hopeful good ride on the road from the back wheel. Durability and longevity of the engine - Transmission. But overall I just cant ignore that my drive to work and back would only require a fill up of 8 gallons...

    Hello From Albququerque

    1800cc now that's what you should put into your Elio. Ha ha. The Yamaha isn't totally road worthy yet but getting there. I have done some "test and tune" on it around the neighborhood and man this things pulls hard. At 4500rpm the front wheel just comes up from the power band and it pulls all...

    Motorheads

    Hey, theres the side by side 4 wheel Elio. :)

    Motorheads

    Wow, this V-4 is 1650cc - liquid cooled - 180Hp. Closed loop Fuel injection and Ride-by-wire electronic throttle control. Now that would make for an interesting power to weight ratio. On the website they have a sound bite of the engine - Music, just music.

    Hello From Albququerque

    I do like banging through gears but in slow traffic it sure isn't fun. I like the silver one to match my other car but I definitely gotta have the P3 Fenders with the open wheel just looks so much better Sent from my XT1049 using Tapatalk

    This Weeks Tech Talk Is All About Interiors

    Old School is the only school for me. I like the dash of the '60's Ferrari Dino. All the pertinent engine information in analog format. Ohh yea, in Real Time :)
