Unless a defunct airline is now making powersport products, I'm pretty sure you mean Can Am.


Anyway, most places consider 3 wheelers to be motorcycles but with the recent influx of these reverse-trike car/motorcycle mashups like the Slingshot, T-Rex, Spyder (thats the Can Am one) and others, some feel that they're too motorcycle like to be a classed as a car and that they're too car like to be classed as a motorcycle. So, since they can't be placed into a well defined box, they aren't considered to be anything and therefore can't be street legal.
