There is a pic of one on the TerraJet USA website. The link for this site can be found right here on the Route 6X6 website in the Links section. It's the only pic that I've ever seen of this model. Regards. |

hmmm, i think i have sean this 3-jet then, in the old raceing videos of marc stobinski's, it apears in a drag race sean i think, did you say you were thinking on getting one? id keep looking unless your just trying to fill your yard with things the smithsonion dosent have, your best bet for rideing would be a 4 wheeled terra jet or almost any of the 6x6 vehicles you might find, just be shure what you buy is compleat and in good condition. this will save you time and money. |

Further to this.... this pic is a bit hard to find. Go to the TJ USA site. On the main page, click "Models" located on the left near the top. Scroll all the way down and click on TerraJet Parking lot. Scroll down the list of pics. The one you want is the 12th from the bottom. I'm not sure what the Route6x6 rules are about posting URLs, so that why I've left the instructions. Here is the URL to take you straight to the pic, to make it easier for you, just in case I am allowed to post it. http://www.members.tripod.com/~TERRAJET/3-jet.jpg Regards, |

Hello Dodge. I have one of these bikes and cannot find any info on it either. I paid $100 for it and is in need of restoration. I talked with a guy a while back who also owned one, he sain the bike is slow but very good for hauling firewood. If you want, if I find any info I can post it here. |

Is the 3-jet amphibious? |

Its not amphibious. Its a 3 wheel atv made by terra jet in the late 70' and early 80's. Mine is (was) powered by a 10 hp techumseh engine thats connected to a 2 speed (forward/reverse) trans via clutch and belt (similar to skidoo or the 6x6 atv's). The rear tires are like those on a terra jet 4x4 while the front is a smaller 20" knobby. There is suspension front and rear. It looks like a chopper with the "ape hanger" handle bars. When I get some spare time I will restore mine to use around the cabin. |
