Travertson Has A Trike In The Works
American Motorcycle Manufacturer Travertson, the same folks who brought you the V-REX, which we’ve reviewed before is in the process of making The Travertson Trike.
In a press release issued by Travertson, we know the trike will have a four-cylinder engine, automatic transmission, reverse and large cargo space. Christian Travert, the company’s namesake, even touts the trike will be a capable handler, able to carry two people.
Travertson is a boutique manufacturer, building up to 50 bikes a year for high-end and very specific customers. Known for his distinct designs, the trike promises to be every bit as unique, as “Travertson takes an artist’s approach to its products, balancing beauty with performance.” Like Travertson’s other models, the customer will have the opportunity to directly interact with Travertson, meaning they can have a very personal customization experience. No two models will be exactly alike and the customer can have a very hands-on interaction with their bike or trike from start to finish. Just look at the V-Rex above for proof.
Other details are still scarce at the moment. For more information, visit www.travertson.com.
Troy's been riding motorcycles and writing about them since 2006, getting his start at Rider Magazine. From there, he moved to Sport Rider Magazine before finally landing at Motorcycle.com in 2011. A lifelong gearhead who didn't fully immerse himself in motorcycles until his teenage years, Troy's interests have always been in technology, performance, and going fast. Naturally, racing was the perfect avenue to combine all three. Troy has been racing nearly as long as he's been riding and has competed at the AMA national level. He's also won multiple club races throughout the country, culminating in a Utah Sport Bike Association championship in 2011. He has been invited as a guest instructor for the Yamaha Champions Riding School, and when he's not out riding, he's either wrenching on bikes or watching MotoGP.
