- De Dion-Bouton Motor Tricycle, circa 1898 - French builders Albert Comte De Dion and Georges Bouton produced their first gasoline tricycles in 1895. Their three-wheel design provided more room for mounting the engine, and it eliminated the risk of "highsider" accidents -- in which a motorcycle loses traction and skids, then suddenly regains traction, throwing the rider from the bike. De Dion-Bouton's successful design was widely copied.
