I prefer the two wheels in the back if you are going in that direction of trike.

Way to hard and expensive to modify. How would you handle that thing if you came into a corner to hot?

I have seen a few (local company).
Nice functioning design if you gotta have a trike.
Leno had the designer on his show, they are proud of them ow & I hate the front grille thing (personally) .

Don't like it, trikes, or Can-Ams. The Slingshots are kind of cool, but I think when the day comes that I can't handle a 2-wheeler any longer I'll buy myself a fast convertible sports car. My sister had a Freewheeler; I rode it and found no joy in it.

To each their own.

I have a buddy who just put a trike kit on his Heritage. He is in his 80's and finding it hard to handle a two wheeler. And at one time was a motor officer with the CHP.

That never happened.

I took a TriGlide for a demo ride this past August. My wife won't ride on the back of a bike, I thought maybe she would go with me on a trike so I wanted to see just how bad they were. She still says she doesn't want to ride on the trike, But my point is I was very surprised at how much I liked the TriGlide. It's not the same as riding a Motorcycle but it is fun in it's own way and if that is what it would take to get my wife to join me on rides I would be at the dealership right now signing paperwork.

I'm thinking your bike's neck bearings (and entire neck, for that matter) wouldn't stand a chance with that mess on them.

My wife has a Can-Am Spyder which I occasionally take for a spin. It's a fun ride, extremely stable, has ABS, Traction Control, and Stability Control. Has a G sensor so it can apply individual brakes to keep it wheels down in just about every condition.
