From their site: "Cruise around in this New Wave Moped while laughing at the gas mileage of the SUVs around you! This Bad Boy gets up to 75 MPG! You will with the Tiger Cruiser!"
Personally, I don't know how much faith I would have in a company that calls a 300cc trike a "moped".
Sorry, couldn't resist. Anyway, that thing looks pretty cool. I'll be following this post to see what others say too.

it doesn't look "safe" i also am for a trike, i am aimed at a reverse trike myself. but i once came across these guys in my search for a trike www.tow-pacinc.com/main2.htm they take existing motorcycles / scooters (2wheeled) and slip on a pair of wheels to make a "trike". which to me, the linked pic you gave, seems like a modified scooter job. I'm not sure if this is any help in looking elsewhere. just sharing what i been through searching for a trike.

Its not a tow pac as you can clearly see only two tires in the rear tow pac would have three in the rear

Looks like one I have seen on superior motor works. I bet this one is over priced. I think it has a bored/stroked linhai/yamaha motor it.

yes i know it isnt a tow pac kit, i was merely saying i came across Tow-Pac in my search of a reverse trike. i know the differences, the one featured in this forum though just made me think about them. and that they at least look quite safe, as apposed to the one posted here for example. i only suggested this as an alternative search. (considering, to me at least, that modified scooter [pic, showing a "removed back tire and replaced with two smaller rear tires"] doesnt look safe).

Ten inch wheels are the norm for scooters if the small wheels scare you move on to something else
Hell i do 60+ on a single rear ten inch that is half as wide as one rear on the tiger I hit 70+ on tge 3.50 ten on my stella
With 225 duals thats a huge contact patch its more tire then a geo metro came with
