The front/ side view illu-strates the traditional motorcycle suspension fork and front or rear motorcycle wheel.
The toy one front and two rearwheel Tilting Three Wheel model that is illustrated on this page, is primarily intended for study and demonstration purposes before the actual construction of the full size SXE prototype.
Scale: 1/10. Dimensions(L×W×H): 230 × 70 × 115 mm Weight : 0,5 KG. Seat Capacity : 2. Gradeability : 45% Engine: Boxer Type / Battery powered
This side view illustrates the position of the engine in-between the driver seat and the tilting mechanism. A fuel tank could be located below the driver seat.
The wheel suspension unit is connected to the bottom framework of the seat section, by means of a set of small guide wheels that slide along a bent guide rail. Hereby allowing for both a solid and flexible connection during all of the vehicles tilting movements.
The quadruple pivot X linkage main connecting rods, can also consist of two motor-cycle type shocks.
As the vehicle corners, the centrifugal forces, combined with the driver and vehicle body weight, will cause a natural pendulum like tilt motion of the vehicle body.
This toy model has a relative short body section that will only allow for a small passenger seat.
