nope, it's a tricycle

 

Hell, I just bought a Spyder Sidecar for ***** and giggles. I only takes 30 minutes to put it on or take if off. It matches my bike style perfectly. It's scheduled to be delivered in Jan.

 

 

I was thinking the same thing. Some kind of ball joint hookup between the rear and where the driver sits. Don't know if the rear Axel would follow in a turn without dragging the tires sideways.

 

Are trainer wheels the same as a trike.

 

the first time i tried to ride a quad was after i had been riding motorcycles for a few years. nearly threw myself off the darn thing at every turn -- no countersteering! i would assume trikes would handle similarly.

my opinion: yes, trikes are motorcycles, but theyre kinda gimped (no negative connotation intended) since there is no countersteering, and you dont have to worry about keeping it upright.

georgia DMV (and i would assume most other states) does not require the MC endorsement on your license for riding trikes or motorcycles with permanently attached sidecars. their reasoning is probably also based on the lack of countersteering and balancing act.

 

Think has been covered enough but will add in FL if take your test on a Trike will be limited to Trikes only .. Otherwise the laws are pretty much the same .. Lights, Mirrors etc..

 

Here in America we are free to choose, thank a VET and ride what you want.

 

Depends....

What's a "real motorcycle"??


Are those 'Trikers' allowed to wear fingerless gloves and chaps, or do they fall under the same Fashion Police recommendations as 'Bikers'??
