Overview

Introducing the 2012 Boom Trikes Muscle Low Rider, a striking custom-cruiser that redefines the motorcycle experience for those seeking adventure on three wheels. Positioned in the niche segment of trikes, the Muscle Low Rider combines the power and performance of a traditional motorcycle with the stability and comfort of a three-wheeled design. With its robust body and eye-catching aesthetics, it’s designed to appeal to both seasoned riders and newcomers eager to stand out on the road. The Muscle Low Rider is not just a mode of transportation; it’s a statement of freedom, individuality, and style. At the heart of the Muscle Low Rider lies a formidable 1596cc in-line four-cylinder engine that delivers an impressive 100 horsepower and 146 Nm of torque at 4000 RPM. This powerful configuration ensures exhilarating acceleration and a top speed of 165 km/h (102.5 mph), making it more than capable of conquering highways and winding backroads. The liquid-cooled engine is paired with a 4-speed gearbox and a shaft drive, allowing for smooth power delivery and an effortless riding experience. The fuel efficiency, rated at 8.00 liters per 100 km, ensures that you can enjoy those long rides without constantly worrying about refueling. The Muscle Low Rider boasts a unique design that prioritizes both comfort and control. Built on a two-part Big Block frame, the trike features a wear-resistant GRP body that not only enhances durability but also adds to its striking appearance. The front suspension is equipped with a polished stainless-steel comfort fork, and the rear utilizes an alloy semi-trailing link axle with adjustable suspension, providing a smooth ride even over rough terrain. Safety is paramount, reflected in its single disc brakes both at the front and rear, and with a weight of 700 kg (1,543.2 lbs) and a generous fuel capacity of 38 liters (10.04 gallons), the Muscle Low Rider promises a hefty and stable ride that can handle all that the open road has to offer. **

Pros

  • Impressive Power and Torque: The 1596cc engine delivers strong performance, making it a thrill to ride on highways and twisty roads alike.
  • Stability and Comfort: The trike design provides an added sense of stability and comfort, particularly for riders who may not be accustomed to the dynamics of two-wheeled motorcycles.
  • Eye-Catching Design Options: Available in a variety of vibrant colors, the Muscle Low Rider allows riders to personalize their experience and ensure they turn heads wherever they go.

Cons

  • Weight Considerations: At 700 kg, the Muscle Low Rider may feel cumbersome to maneuver at slow speeds or in tight spaces compared to lighter motorcycles.
  • Fuel Consumption: While the performance is commendable, the fuel consumption rate could be a drawback for those who prioritize efficiency on long rides.
  • Limited Off-Road Capability: Designed primarily for cruising, this trike may not perform as well on rugged terrain compared to more versatile off-road motorcycles.
