“Red Rocker” edition Talon Motors Invader

by VHND — updated December 1, 2010 12 Comments

From Autoblog.com:

Three-wheeled vehicles are apparently back in vouge. Yesterday we told you that Morgan is reviving its classic Threewheeler, and now SEMA offers up a trike of its own. Talon Motors has unveiled its Invader, and we have to admit that the specs on it are pretty impressive. Much more so than Talon’s last creation, the Street Quad.

Power for the Invader is provided in spades, thanks to a 1,300-cc Suzuki Hayabusa engine mated to a six-speed sequential transmission. The powertrain provides enough scoot to move this reverse trike from 0-60 miles per hour in under four seconds. Keep going and you’ll eventually hit the top speed of 150 mph.

Those speeds require serious hardware to keep things safe, and the Invader delivers with a fully adjustable suspension setup. A set of cross-drilled Wilwood rotors and four-piston calipers quickly bring things back within legal limits.

Pricing for the standard Invader begins at $42,900, with a host of optional features being made available. Talon Motors isn’t just stopping there however… the Invader builder has teamed up with former Van Halen front-man Sammy Hagar to produce a limited-edition signature series. The “Red Rocker” edition Invader will incorporate custom design elements created between Hagar and Talon Motors, and it will go on sale sometime in 2011.
