I know the 4 wheeler you're talking about. That does look cool. also seen a shovelhead mounted between 2 front wheels setup. another cool spin.
I'm with you on the traditional configuration, though. Just doesn't feel right .... but the only trike I ever rode was a servi car with a tired 45.
everything I read or hear about Can Am sounds awesome to me. It handles like a sports car with all the open air feel of a bike. I hope I never need one, but glad to know that there are options available just in case my sail boat/ pirate retirement doesn't pan out.

Nothing against the people who like them but I would never buy or ride anything with 3 wheels. They just seem lame and sketchy to me. Ive seen some custom trikes that obviously had alot of skill and pride put into them but no matter how hard I tried to appreciate the craftsmanship they still look goofy and awkward to me. To each their own I guess. Can Am tried to change it up and make them cool but I would never own one. Im with twisted. If I get too old and broken to throw a leg over two wheels then Im just going find a new hobby.

A few of the Can-Am's running around here I see occasionally and for in town or close local riding I can see it maybe but I just can't get my head around me on one and there's no way I'd trust 3 wheels at highway speeds or in the hills I like riding . All my riding instincts are wrong for that many wheels it would have me in deep dodo fast

Interesting but still a hell of a lot body english getting used on those corners . I can just see some these 300 plus pounders trying that **** .
I'm already working out the details of that 4 wheels side hack rig in the head , that one's been bouncing around for a while . Think the basics will the project after I put that panhead back on the road .

better get started building those geezermobiles now because by the time you need one, you won't be able to build one. when i need a cane to walk i'll give my grandson my bike and will be at the bar with the old lady's that get left behind....lol

That vid that Al showed, looked like one needed to be in good shape to throw around.
Not a unit for a couple of Clydesdales with all that leather flapping around.

A big mean bitch, forcing you to drive her all over the place so your friends have to look at it. Perched back there staring down cars. Effing nightmare. Dude just wants to go for a ride and he has no idea his old lady is back there looking for an opportunity to start ****, writing checks his *** can't cash.
They should tie them to the back of the bike and make them run that bulk off. Maybe that will sweeten their disposition. Hard to scowl when you are worn out.
I am going to invent a mirror and shock device for baggers. This mirror will not look at the road but allow the driver to see his wife's face. When she starts acting like a biker mama he has the option to hit a button and shock that eat **** look right off her face. Thus keeping him from getting his *** kicked by someone who takes offense.
If a chick on the back of a Harley is giving you eat **** and die looks is it ok to punch her?
