Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары
Watch Top Gears - The Stig drive this around a race track here: • HAYABUSA PIAGGIO APE |...
We catch up with @EVILGT Ben at his unit as we are getting probably the most craziest cars we have ever had on the channel, a Hayabusa Powered Piaggio Ape or as peaople will say Tuk Tuk.
Knowing Ben, he is one of the worst passengers we know along side owen who is also not a good passenger, we though we would send them both out in this Superbike Engine Swapped 3 wheeler, which is capable of going over 150mph.
This video is gonna be epic, please Like, Comment, Share & Subscribe for more bonkers builds!!

Saya menonton video ini berulang2 tidak bosan2, saya sangat suka
I'm Italian and still have my grandpa's 1981 Ape P601 in the original "mustard-yellow" colour, actually a little faded by decades of sun! It runs a 220 cc 2-stroke engine. With the proper maintenance it still rides brilliantly up and down in the Alps! The only problem is that you reach at most ~75 km/h, downhill, fully loaded and in fourth gear (since it has the handlebar you need to pray you won't hit a pothole 😅) and in other conditions you create queue and, as we are used in Italy, everyone behind starts overtaking in crazy ways with insane accelerations and long horn soundings. With the horses of the Ape in this video I wouldn't have such problems for sure 💪🏻 As passionate of these veichels I think this powerful-blue-Ape is simply insane and exciting, something I'd love to see and "hear" but...not sure I want to try it...deep down it is a three-wheels-coffin tailored for two 😂😂 Well done to the mechanic and thanks to have shared this gem in the community!
I'm from India. This one is 'Pick Up Auto Rickshaw' used by small vegetable vendors or small businessman to move goods within city. It's top speed in stock is 32 MPH. But you guys swapped the engine with mods to Hayabusa and made it completely insane superfast! 🤣

No, keep it as it is,add the turbo and a front disc brake set up. With a cage and seats it would give you a false sense of security, and then you push it into/ out of bends and you end up in a wheel chair for the rest of your life. Atleast like this ,in a big " incident" you are going through the pearly gates on fire and backwards with a smile on your face, rather than being pushed into the old people's rest home having your bum wiped.
