If You could Only have One . . .

. . . .Would you want the top fuel dragster bike, or the really fat tire tadpole?

I would definitely go for the fat trike. Yet, at 69 yrs old I still find 2 wheels are best. Maybe when I can't walk anymore, I will consider a third wheel might be a good idea. 
Make it fool-proof, and I will make a better fool.

The fat tire tadpole would be a better source for parts to build what I would actually want, so I'd start with that one.

I have a short attention span.
Would probably lose interest in the rail after the first 440 yards / 30 seconds of riding.
So I'll take the trike.

Dragsters are meant to be going straight.

I'd ride the trike. would be awesome to have. Wouldn't get much use, but would be a lot of fun.
If I had the drag bike, I'd stick a turbo charged Hyabusa engine in it, and then go to jail, posthumously.

Buy the ticket, take the ride.

Then, I would be tempted to try it too, and going to the grave postjailously.
