manums Posted October 23, 2016 Share Posted October 23, 2016 I have seen some three wheeler vehicles in sharjah area yesterday. One was having two wheels on the front and other having just the opposite. Is that a custom vehicle? Do we need any additional license to ride such vehicles? In general how much customization is allowed in UAE? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Barry Posted October 24, 2016 Share Posted October 24, 2016 I used to have one of these. It was pure evil incarnate. If you gave it too much throttle, the front would lift slightly and you would lose the steering and it would take off in whatever direction it felt like. Was also very unstable in corners. I came off it a few times, even hit a tree once. There are a few different types of trikes. Car based and bike based. A lot of people use the back end of an old air cooled beetle and fit a bike front end. There are also fully bike based ones. Some of the Honda Goldwing trikes are things of beauty and almost look as if they were built by the factory. My personal favourites are the rat trikes.

manums Posted October 26, 2016 Author Share Posted October 26, 2016 Actually it was bigger and really exotic in a fashionable way. For the first time i'm seeing something like this in real. Unfortunately i couldn't take a picture. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

manums Posted October 26, 2016 Author Share Posted October 26, 2016 This is it. Thanks barry. i will read about it. Is it permissible to ride in public roads? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Barry Posted October 26, 2016 Share Posted October 26, 2016 It must be road legal. I've seen one on the road a few weeks ago. Taking something illegal on the road here would just be plain stupid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rahimdad Posted October 27, 2016 Share Posted October 27, 2016 I have seen kids riding 2 wheeler small electric scooters on Sharjah streets, almost saw a couple of very close shaves, I am sure they would not survive if they met with an accident. Kids are senseless, but I am wondering how come the parents don't know about what their children are up to, or do the parents actually encourage them to do this. @manums I have seen these being sold in Ras Al Khor, you can check with the showroom if they would help you register them, if they can be registered in Dubai, they can be used on the streets in Dubai. The one you saw was it with a license plate? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
manums Posted October 27, 2016 Author Share Posted October 27, 2016 @Rahimdad yes brother. It was having a number plate, 3 digit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rahimdad Posted October 27, 2016 Share Posted October 27, 2016 Cool. That means it can be registered. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
