<br />There have been <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/2008/09/24/lean-machine-ferrari-v4-superbike-concept/">countless attempts</a> to translate the Ferrari spirit <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/2006/04/29/motorcycle-headcase-2-guy-stuffs-ferrari-engines-into-two-cust/">from four wheels to two</a>, ranging from <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/2008/03/25/a-ferrari-motorcycle-only-in-our-1-12-scale-dreams/">sport bikes </a>to <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/2007/02/09/prancing-steel-horse-custom-scuderia-ferrari-chopper/">choppers</a> and <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/2008/12/07/1995-ferrari-motorcycle-to-be-auctioned/">everything</a> in <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/2008/04/25/awesome-ness-custom-bike-exhibit-to-open-in-may/">between</a>. But this is the first we've seen with three wheels. That's right, in case your eyes couldn't adjust from the endless see of crimson contours, what you're looking at is a Ferrari trike.<br /><br />Mirroring the "styling" of a Scuderia Ferrari F1 car, this one-off trike was spotted at the banzai Tokyo Auto Salon by the same people who brought us the no-less-bonkers <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/2009/01/23/embrace-your-inner-child-with-a-lambo-atv/">Lamborghini ATV</a>. Based around a 1.3-liter Suzuki Hayabusa engine and frame, this (thankfully) unique example was built by Trike Japan in order to showcase what they can do. We certainly hope the rest of their portfolio is a bit more tasteful than this showpiece, but we won't be holding our breath. If you're feeling a little masochistic today, have a look in the gallery below and the pair of videos after the jump.<br /><br /><div class="postgallery"><p><strong>Gallery: <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/photos/ferrari-trike">Ferrari Trike</a></strong></p><a href="http://www.autoblog.com/photos/ferrari-trike/"><img src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.autoblog.com/media/2009/01/ferrari-suzuki-hyabusa-trike-4_thumbnail.jpg" alt="" title="" /></a><a href="http://www.autoblog.com/photos/ferrari-trike/"><img src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.autoblog.com/media/2009/01/ferrari-suzuki-hyabusa-trike-3_thumbnail.jpg" alt="" title="" /></a><a href="http://www.autoblog.com/photos/ferrari-trike/"><img src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.autoblog.com/media/2009/01/ferrari-suzuki-hyabusa-trike-6_thumbnail.jpg" alt="" title="" /></a><a href="http://www.autoblog.com/photos/ferrari-trike/"><img src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.autoblog.com/media/2009/01/ferrari-suzuki-hyabusa-trike-5_thumbnail.jpg" alt="" title="" /></a><a href="http://www.autoblog.com/photos/ferrari-trike/"><img src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.autoblog.com/media/2009/01/ferrari-suzuki-hyabusa-trike-2_thumbnail.jpg" alt="" title="" /></a></div><br />[Source: <a href="http://www.carzi.com/2009/01/23/ferrari-suzuki-hyabusa-trike/">Carzi</a>]<p><a href="http://www.autoblog.com/2009/01/25/formula-for-disaster-ferrari-hyabusa-trike-on-display-in-tokyo/" rel="bookmark">Continue reading <em>Formula for Disaster: Ferrari Hyabusa Trike on display in Tokyo</em></a></p><p style="padding:5px;background:#ddd;border:1px solid #ccc;clear:both;"><a href="http://www.autoblog.com/2009/01/25/formula-for-disaster-ferrari-hyabusa-trike-on-display-in-tokyo/">Formula for Disaster: Ferrari Hyabusa Trike on display in Tokyo</a> originally appeared on <a href="http://www.autoblog.com">Autoblog</a> on Sun, 25 Jan 2009 20:22:00 EST.
