We're not the only country with issues. In the 80's when Honda, Suzuki, Kawasaki and Yamaha made 3 wheel ATVs, they all varied the position of the engine relative to the front wheel. Honda had a patent in Japan on it. Yamaha had to place the engine much further back & it tended to wheely much more. Only Honda had the ideal position.
