That looks like the more dangerous soccer mom version of the Reliant Robin. I can't imagine driving that crazy minivan with 3 wheels.
yep
The forbiden child of a Tuktuk and Reliant Robin
Come to India my friend. You will find thousands of smaller cousins of this ferrying 6-8 people from here to there.
I would say its a micro van.
@@BikesandBeards Lowered 2-3inches, wider wheels by banding about 5 inches front and rear...
Shawn I'm still blown away by what you did in your last video. That show of kindness really moved me.
Yes, the way he showed mercy and stopped beating that homeless man half way through was such a breath of fresh air and an inspiration to us all
@user-ep3bb9fk6n woah traded-one-addiction-for-anorher guy was beating someone?
We had a car manufacturer here in the UK called Reliant, and their famous model is the Robin. They were fairly common in the 70's and all you needed to drive it was a motorcycle licence, but the "car" still had to meet normal car testing conditions. Top Gear (UK version) actually did a whole show around it, with Jeremy Clarkson tipping it on purpose on corners.
Top Gear rigged the Reliant to roll over more easily by welding the differential, adding weights, and putting differently sized tires on. Robin owners said that they were fairly stable and gave ample warning before rolling.
I know all about the Robin from top gear
Top Gear episode was a Rialto, the facelift version. As far as I remember they put in perspex windows in it.
Mr Bean's enemy drove a blue one
He clearly brought up Top Gear
Man this is the REASON this channel is so much more different and interesting than all the other motorcycle channels combined. Keep at it brother!
Doing my best. Thanks for watching it means a lot
your right it is because he knows nothing about motorcycles lol
You know that dude in the Town Car didn't stop because he either had no insurance or a warrant out
Haha yeah classic town car guy
@@BikesandBeards if the break breaks you as good as screwed.
That moonroof was probably stuck in his windshield. lol
shouts "that MF!!!!" and keeps driving by 😂
I dropped everything i was doing to come watch this
That makes 2 of us
Yep... dog bowl and kibble all over the floor here😅
Aka you were “dropping” a deuce 😂 lol you dropped what you were do dooing lol
Had to cancel my Tinder date here.
Wow you must be a super fan! Yay! Nice man
The one clarkson rolled over was made by a British company called reliant. They started building 3 wheelers to exploit a loop hole in British law that classed 3 wheelers as bikes, meaning they could sell their products to soldiers returning from the 2nd World war, who only had motorcycle licenses (same thing Morgan did). Top gear actually admitted that they sabotaged the reliant to make it tip in the corners. Somebody I used to work with had one, and he said it was more stable in reverse.
My family had a Reliant Robin growing up as my father only had a motorcycle licence. He hated it. Said it was made appallingly bad and spent half his life fixing it.
Top Gear tested one of these Chinese things tho, well by tested I mean they drove it a little around. I think it was very similar to this one, just older.
Welcome to Tennessee, we always stop and help those in need.
Three wheeler's? The safest and most stable three wheeler was the big wheel, everything else must be measured against it! Thank you b&b.
We agree!
TRUTH! ... Though the Huffy Green Machine was a close second!
You know how many kids died when they went down a hill into a car? The brakes were lacking
@@crocketgsxr6 they're still for kids too. They still make the old fashioned kids ones and even motorized kids ones... definitely not just for adults
@@crocketgsxr6 I'm not a kid, I have one.
Lmao it’s the evolution of the Reliant Robin omg the funniest top gear episode ever
What a great adventure. Thank you for doing something I would never try. Keep it up Sir.
I loved it. Im glad you things rolling again Shawn and hope you nothing but the best. You always crack me up and I was worried about you stopping the channel when you left Pa. Miss seeing you with Creg and the guys like in the old days, but glad you kept it going. I watch all Craig's stuff too. I really was heartbroken to see things come to a end, but glad things have worked out. I haven't talked to you in a while brother so its always good to see you. God bless you and your family and pray you are happy in Tennessee. You get up around south Western VA in the tazewell county area give me a shout. Id love to have you come visit and id show you some cool places with some awesome bikes. Love from the ole hillbilly Kenny, peace.
Love these videos.
I'm here to see the weird, odd and downright silly of the car/motorcycle world...
There's a reason why people rubber neck car accidents 😂
I work at the building across where you did this! I told a coworker to look at that silly car with a couch on it! Next thing I see it's rolled over. I wish I knew it was you, would have come out to meet you.
now we will never get the chance to meet
Crazy SH.. , I love it!!! How do you get these ideas?? Great job!!! Love the show!!! Thank you for all you do!!
Bro I was DYING LAUGHING SO HARD 😅😂😂😂😂😂😂 glad your back mane.
glad to see you back! miss seeing videos like this lol
Fridays rock when I get a new episode of bikes and beards, and I don't even have a bike or beard. Love the videos Sean!
I soft rolled my very custom 1972 Super Beetle back in '96. We had chopped the roof a bit, had custom glass cut, pulled all the chrome and bumpers, 2300cc engine that needed wheelie bars if I goosed it too hard. First car and my dad and I had been working on it since I was 12 in anticipation of me getting my license at 16. I was 17 and had enjoyed it as a daily for just about a year when I took a turn ramp a bit too fast. Soft rolled it on it's side in the grass. This was back before cellphones were common, so I walked up the ramp to a 7-11 and called my dad at work from a payphone. He told me to roll it back over onto the wheels, let it settle for a few minutes and start it up. Walked back and 2 good ol' boys in a pickup helped me push it back over. Sure enough, after I waited a few minutes, it started right up. About 2 weeks worth of me putting in time to fix some dents and replace a mirror, she was as good as new. Drove her for another 2 years before I got t-boned by a hit and run drunk driver in a f350 with cattle bars. Broke the frame and tore the engine nearly out. Found the truck that hit me later that night a block away from my parents house, but that's another story.
I thought VW bugs had a pan not a frame🤨
@@grantsherman2292 I meant the chassis by the way.
"Found the truck that hit me later that night a block away from my parents house, but that's a story my lawyer advised me not to share until the arson investigation is over"
@@yermomsboyfriend LMFAO. Funny you said that. Not because I burned his truck down, but because the driver was the son of the fire chief and it was the chiefs truck. When the police originally ran the plate number I gave them at the scene of the hit and run, they were being a bit weird. Then when I called them again when I was by the truck, my paint all over the cattle guard, they were hesitant to get more involved. They eventually went to door of the house and the dude there said it was his buddies truck and that he parked it and left. That was a lie, the dude that answered was the driver. I told the police it was the driver, but they did nothing. Months later my lawyer finally got all the story straight. I got a great settlement, but it took far too long.
Bless you sir
Reliant Robins were popular in the UK when I was growing up, as you could drive one on a motorcycle license. Ideal for winter travel lol. Jeremy Clarkson shows a good example how to drive one on Top Gear 🤣
Albeit his was rigged to fall over easier
I remember when I first turned 16 and was looking for my first car. I found this exact monstrosity and was like "yeah, I could daily that"
I never got it so to say 😂
I would have had a blast in this thing as a kid
Great Video! Glad to see you back!
Love that youre back the new vids are great
i love your work , the motorcycles the verses , the contests , the beards are ok , great guy , great work , thanks for the entertainment.
The stuff you get into. Your wife has to wonder if you're ever gonna survive any of them. You definitely need a lot of prayers to watch over you. Thank you for sharing! 😮😊
Yes I do
@@BikesandBeards Prayers for the Family 🙏
Great video brother!!
New rider, unbelievable how much you can learn on your channel. Thanks… God Bless. From Odessa,Fl
I remember these. The Tire shop (Snyder Tire) across the river in Steubenville, Ohio imported these. You might be surprised how popular these were for work cars and delivery vans. They also had mopeds that were IMMENSELY more popular (advertised as 50cc - were actually 100cc). The whole line up was sketchy - these were not as bad as the pickup trucks!
I used to get my truck tires there. I went to one on Cadiz road I think it was. Always a good deal and fast service.
@@mjc8248 I went to the one on Sunset Blvd. (I think 🤔) back when the dad ran it. You're right - fast service and fair prices. Too bad the deal with the "Wildfyre" vehicles got them into so much trouble with the government.
I could get a good set of mud or a/t tires on my dually for under 700 most of the time. They always wore well, and for the miles I drove on and off road with trailers, they were the best deal around. I'd usually go during the Jefferson County Fair or the Mingo Junction community festival.
I DO use my knife for that! It's a TERRIBLE hammer, but SOMETIMES is a great screwdriver for carb tune on the fly!!! BTW Sean, I REALLY want that super ugly, unsafe, poor condition "wildfire".trade it for a real bike.... I have one for you lol. Great to see you back on track ready, especially afterwards taking on so much! Keep up the excellent work, and God bless! ❤
contact me at our website, i will entertain a trade
Email us I ll consider it
It's nice to see that you're flying Craig down to Tennessee for so many videos!
Love your content man! ❤
They've managed to design a vehicle with all the downsides of a car whilst simultaneously being more dangerous than a motorbike.
Genius.
1970'S Reliant Robin.
Super genius
Thank god Craig is making good videos to watch
For reals . I love craig
Welcome to TN where people wave say hi, and still pull over to help I'm glad your having a good experience. Ps it's cool seeing places/ things we know in your videos like Ted's.
Sean, your 1st scene is filmed right next to my neighborhood! Wish I was around to see you film and meet you. Been watching your channel for yesrs. Welcome to TN!
If you rolled it the other way, the couch would have sat down perfectly 😂 awesome video brother .
I guess we now know why there only 1 of this in London. Question is... How is the owner of the blue 3 wheeled car/motorcycle vehicle always so unlucky to meet Mr Bean and be bullied by him?
Hah, I saw this thing on a Tennessee Facebook group. I love that you ended up with it.
Enjoyed the video, and needed that verse. Thanks :)
You should see that Hayabusa powered Piaggio tuk tuk. Now that's dangerous 😳
Haha! That’s what came to my mind too.. I think that was on Brit nutcase “Colin Furze” youtube channel (?) I know he made a 70mph. mobility scooter!
Full-on death sports!
best content creator for anything outside and bout motorcycles.
This looks awesome!
So happy your back making weekly videos we really enjoy the content it’s fun and we all get a laugh
Sean you don’t need to tighten things until they stop moving 😂
Where’s Greg?
Might want to Change your Avatar so People don't Mistake you for a P.O.S Sex Site Bot... Just a Thought.
Haha I know that now
@@ravenlorans yeah good idea
Best video so far. Where in Tennessee did you find it. This reminded me of top gear and was wondering if you was going to roll it over and you did. 😎😎😎👍👍👍
Get a Tuk Tuk next!!! I couldnt stop laughing. I Love these videos!
Texas now has a category called "autocycle" for those things with steering wheels, but the pickup truck Chinese version I saw with a Texas Motorcycle plate in New Braunfels, at least still has you riding a proper looking moto front end.
It would be better if it leaned
There’s many reasons why those didn’t catch on 😂
Great to see you posting videos on the regular again 😊
Great to be back
So glad you moved to the south!! You're welcome in SC anytime!
Glad you're okay after flipping papa. Love you.
I think you are very close to Vice Grip Garage. A collaboration video would be awesome.
i ve reached out with no response
@@BikesandBeards I'm sure you'll get one soon, Derek is an awesome guy
The vehicles are manufactured in China and are distributed throughout the United States. Wildfire Motor Company was founded November 30, 1998, with production lasting about 1999 to 2013. Wildfire was based in Steubenville, Ohio.
Woo!! Im so glad were back to awesome content
If you squint it looks like an early A-class lol
hahaha
I loved how when you didn't say "No" your wife just said "Thank you". Your wife and mine must be related. To her 3 seconds of silence on my end means "Yes, dear. Anything you say, dear". Sometimes she doesn't even wait for the silence, the request is immediately followed by "Thanks!".
Sean keep doing your thing man you and Craig are the 💩 and I love and will continue to support you both to my fullest extent. Wish you all the best!!!!
I wanted to flip mine so badly but also didn’t want to die 😂😂😂 (this is the worst, most dangerous car/motorcycle I’ve ever been in)
That woman you live with who keeps sleeping beside you seems pretty cool to not want you to die horribly . Very cool .
she just trying to control me
@@BikesandBeardsRIP 😂
The Robin reliant was cool, old folk used to have them, as kids we used to rob them drive them about at night then put them back no one ever found out, 9 year we did it for in the 80s and 90s, we never rolled one overthough thankfully.
hahaha
Mrs. Shawn: please don't die.
Also Mrs. Shawn: hey please strap heavy living room furniture to the top of your top heavy unstable "motorcycle".
I remember a RV place in Rockwood TN used to sell those things years ago, they made a big deal about them being classified as a motorcycle
It was Mr.Bean rival 😂
This deserves more likes that it has...
I'm glad your a Christian my brother, because faith and trust in Jesus Christ is what got you home safe. Thank you Sean for the scriptures on every video, and for all the laughs and bikes on every video too. God bless ya my brother and your family🙏😎
Man Shawn live near Franklin! It would have been incredible to have seen that thing downtown with you in the driver seat. Glad you survived the trip.
When that wiper broke I about split a gut ;-) Two wheels up front and one in the back is a much safer design. A great video!
Makes the Pinto look like one of the safest vehicle on the road! Lol
Thank you for teasing the Diesel KLR, I was wondering how that was coming along
Love the channel, you have good sense of humor. 😂
I lost it😂😂😂😂when he did the turn around on the curb,not sure why that was absolutely hilarious maybe the music with it but about peed myself!!😂😂😂
In the Uk, where I live, we had 3 wheeled cars called Reliants. There were 3 models made. 1: Reliant Regal. 2: Reliant Rialto & 3: Reliant Kitten. 2 engine sizes were available, 748cc & the sporty(lol)...848cc. They were produced from 1973-1981. Fibre glass body, 3 door shells. You could, back in the day, drive one of these with just a motorcycle licence. They are now collectable but some people use them in Banger Racing\Demolition Derbys....
I bought one of those wildfire 200cc chopper motorcycles in 2005 on a whim . Stupid thing went 70 miles before it lost all electrical . The company sucked and refused to help . The motor has been sitting on a shelf ever since . Got a free Honda cm200t for the motor and wiring . Now I can at least get parts when needed .
So happy you moved down here to Tennessee. Come out towards Paris and well go atv riding down by the lake! Some good trails out this way!
Are you still doing the bike auction?
There's a place local to me that used to assemble and sell all kinds of Wildfire products including this sketchy "motorcycle".. It was Synder Tire in Wintersville, Ohio that used to sell them and they had an offsite warehouse where they assembled them! At one point I think they even made an electric car as well.
On the bright side they are a great source of trike rear axles.
Turbo, nitrous a chevy v8 engine and take the body off and you are golden.
They want to ban guns, ALL GUNS, but chose a humble moped instead ?
Sean , you find the craziest vehicles ....nice!!
awesome video!! i always get excited when I see a new bikes and beards video!
A few remarks. Jeremy clarkson was in a bond car. That bond had skid plates. They would touch the road and stopped it from turning over. People would fit bigger wheels(diameter) to get more speed. But took away the safety.
Compare this one please with a can am/morgan/velorex who have 2 wheels up front and 1 in the back. They are more stable.
A friend in high school (1969) had a Moris minor. It had 2 wheels in front a one in back. Surprisingly stable when it ran.
Nope.
Every Morris Minor on Earth has 4 wheels.
You may be thinking of a Morgan Three Wheeler. It has two front wheels and one rear. Front engined, rear wheel drive.
the second shift gets ya hilarious lolz
Love the end of duck creek description of that vehicle. Nailed
Got a Subaru with tiny pedals.Have set it on it's nose while trying to push in the clutch!
Good luck and God bless.
Their EPA certification was revoked in April 2013. Their US headquarters in Steubenville Oh. does not seem to be around.
The British show Mr. Bean had him tipping over a lot of 3 wheelers. Thanks for a great website!
Wildfire motors also makes mopeds I used to have a 49cc wildfire moped that was actually decent quality compared to the tao tao 49cc scooters that are usually sold everywhere...
It looks theftproof. Where do I buy one?
Next time u need rain x but can't find it. Get some spray brake cleaner. Spray it on the glass and use a rag to buff all the streaks completely out. Problem solved.
Trucker for 20 yrs and did this in the winter on salt coverd roads when I would use up the windshield cleaning fluid. Worked every time just as good as rain x
When I saw that goose egg roll by with the couch on top I totally lost it. Man, do you love your wife!! Blessings, brother.
I have upgraded electric cabin scooter and it has replaced all car trips and it has nice range and fast charging. My three wheeler is quite stable even at windy roads.
Get moving blankets and hang them to form a wall around where you record and get rid of that echo.
We have something like that in the UK. Called a Robin reliant. Or something like that. Jeremy Clarkson had one in Top Gear.
When you rolled it over my 13 year old daughter screamed “ not the squish mellow” how could he!!!! LOL
Oh my gosh man I laughed my butt off from the time the moon roof flew off till the end of the video I laughed so hard my face hurts 😂
Be nice to see this thing fixed up
I'm English and my first car after having had a motorcycle [Honda CD175] for two years was a Reliant 21E Supervan. Three wheels, one at the front. Nick J
When we used to race and ride Honda Oddessys, We had wrist restraints for that very reason. Your brain wants to catch you from falling and you instinctively reach out but now you're holding back 800-1200lbs so instead you put wrist restrains on to keep your hands in the cabin at all times.
I had to stop eating my lunch while watching this video, too much laughter.
Not a motorcycle, it's a 3 wheeled people carrier. Which, by the fact that it's left hand drive, I'm guessing is from France.
