Classified as a motorcycle, the Triski is a fully homologated road going vehicle, allowing it to travel at highway speeds on land, and over 40mph on water; a truly versatile HSA platform.

A twin jet system is located on either side of the single rear wheel, which retracts into the body, using a new type of Gibbs suspension technology specifically designed for single wheel applications.

The Triski is the sort of vehicle that will perform on land as well as on water. So to give riders a complete feeling of speed no matter if they ride on land or a lake, a two-cylinder turbocharged engine can kick up the land speed all the way up to 85 mph due to a peak 135-horsepower output.

Switching modes between terrains typically takes a mere matter of seconds. Upon hitting the water, the front wheels are retracted and angled like the ones on the Terraquad, but the central rear wheel is pulled up into a recess beside the exhaust to let the jets do their work.

The Triski is not in production anymore, when these were selling, they were going for a cool $40,000 since no one is building these anymore, it may be rather tricky to find one in working order.
