Do they still wear water wings when they swimming?

 

At like 991 cc's those Can Am's put out 100 HP so I bet they haul *** pretty well. I'd like to test ride one just for the hell of it and will certainly reserve judgement until I do.

 

I don't know, I have a friend who can't use his left foot because of a bike wreck who rides a custom trike now. Personally, I wave at them.

 

I wave, they usually wave back..... actually talked to an owner while waiting for my appointment to visit a buddy in jail ( really)...... he says it's not at all like riding a motorcycle ( which he also rides) more like being allowed to drive your snowmobile down the road...... I'd like to have one for winter honestly..... the E-GLide gets garaged when the snow comes out so I can go play on my way to work on that thing

 

They are afraid to take a hand off the bars.
They aren't bad to ride/drive depending on your point of view but takes a bit of getting use too.

 

I had a chance to test ride a Can-Am Spyder last week at AirVenture in Oshkosh. They were very emphatic that the Spyder is "not a motorcycle", it's a "ROADSTER".
I rode the touring model and found it to be a very strange experience. There are no hand levers for brake or clutch. The foot pedal controls ABS brakes on all 3 wheels and the transmission is semi-automatic (upshift manually with a pushbutton and downshift is automatic).
I've never ridden a trike so I can't compare there but I found the handling to be very difficult around the test course. I'm used to leaning into curves but I had to wrestle the handlebars on this thing to make it go where I wanted - a better seating position might have helped but I didn't ask about different seats and handlebars. There was no engine braking so I made several hard stops with the ABS. I couldn't get used to keeping my feet up at stops (no trike experience again). Engine performance seemed adequate but the course was too short to tell.
I didn't really like it because it felt more like riding an ATV then a motorcycle and it's just not my style. After 40+ years on 2 wheels, I think I'll stick with what I've got.

 

Seen a few around here. But none at the usual biker watering holes.
