Question on driving a Trike
#12
Simply put, you ride a 2 wheeler and you drive a trike....you can lean on a trike all you want, but it's going straight...
It's a push-pull operation....turning the front end to make the trike go where you want...it's not hard, just different....

A trike handles more like a snowmobile or an ATV than a two-wheeler.
I've had very experienced two-wheeler guys ask to drive it. I tell them, "Not unless you can afford to pay for it."
Not trying to be a smart-***, but the trike definitely takes some practice, and it handles nothing like a two-wheeler. I've read horror stories of guys riding them into the guardrail or ditch on the way home from the dealer with their shiny new toy - leaning the whole way.
As the above poster states, it's not hard, just different. It helps to practice a bit before going out among the cagers.
