Am I The Only One Who Wants To Import A Reliant Robin In The US?

Updated: 29 Nov 2024

Some of you will probably say it will dumb and pointless but I think It would pretty cool just to say I own one.

well, its america, you dont have to worry about corners

Nah Pennsylvania country roads, I’d pretty much be forced to weld some training wheels to the front fenders lol.

That actually sounds kind of fun haha. I’d love to see a robin driving around the state’s and all the confused looks people would give it. I bet its banned because of something stupid though.

I guess if your states allows 3 wheeled cycle its cool. But in Pennsylvania its dumb, you have to get your own separate permit and licence for a 3 wheeled cycle and take a course. So you cant drive a 3 wheeled cycle with just your motorcycle licence. Im assuming that the dmv would frown upon the fact that I show up to the course in a reliant robin when most of the bikes look like this (see image) that people buy to take there course in and I dont feel like going out of my way to buy one of these just so I can drive a reliant robin.

Can’t import an Grand Punto Abarth due to "safety" and yet, somehow, a Reliant Robin is PERFECTLY legal.

One sold in California for about $7k a few months back

I’d never pay that much for one. I’d just buy one off eBay UK and get my cousin who works over there to import it in the U.S. For me. Yeah import fees and all but in the long run it would probably be cheaper.
