I was reading here in Missouri about getting my wife endorced with a M so she could drive a three wheeler and one of the state rules for a three wheeler to be driven in the skills test is that it needs to do a 180 within 40' diameter.
It seems that in some of the early videos that the M3W is far from being able to comply with that specification.
Has MMC changed out the exhaust so the front wheels can rotate around to a higher angle for turn?
Has anyone ever gone to a parking lot and did a 180 and measured what the outside to outside diameter is?
Just curious as the wife and I continue to discuss the M3W.
Thanks and hope you are all having a great weekend.

Something tells me that a smoking return in the lane would be frowned upon.

Turning circle similar to a container ship I'm afraid.

Turning radius requires the State of Rhode Island.
Truly pathetic. I have become concerned on a few hill climbs as the hairpin turns are....
Never mind. I just light up the rear end and make the turn in a boisterous manner!
What's your mileage? Who cares. Is it practical? See #1. What happens when it rains? You get wet.

More first gear turns in this vehicle than any previous car or bike. Nothing to do with the radius, just sayin'...

The morgan radius is big. My hot rod is even worse..but the trex is amazing small & it feels great. I really recommend you give it a try if you are ever close to a trex rental, you won't regret it. But try the newer onces from 2013 with the bmw 1600 engine
