Me it was simple.... I like to ride all year. So i got my first street trike in 08.
I pack away my two wheeler from Nov to March...And ride the trike every day.
Even in the snow...Cant do that on two wheels....
If there was a decent reverse trike I'd be interested.
There was a one-off a few years back called F3 Adrenaline.
It was badass but I haven't seen it since.
There is. It's a '17 Tri Glide with a Baker reverse kit !
30+ years on 2, and got to the point wife would not ride with me on 2 any longer. I missed her riding with me, and she said maybe she would feel more comfortable on 3 wheeler. Made the change and no regrets. I have to admit, my knee does give out. Never had an issue while riding 2 wheel, but have had thought myself it could happen.
It's hell to get old...Arthritis, back surgery, hip replacement, what's next?
I had my Police bike converted to a trike and WOW! I haven't had this much fun in years.
Two strokes did it for me. I've got very little balance and I still want to ride. I know that a trike is definitely not a motorcycle, but, it's the next best thing.
I'm genuinely curious. I saw a lot of Tri's on the road over the summer and have wondered what is it that makes someone go from 2 wheels to 3 ?
And maybe they didn't even start with 2 wheels! Maybe it's always been 3 ?
I thought I could post in here and have ya'll share your thoughts?
Much appreciated. Ride Safe!
I decided after having a back fusion that if my Roadking ever fell over or a cage cut me off, I wouldn't be able to pick it up and would have to ask someone. With a back fusion you can also injure the vertebrae above and the vertabrae below over time. After that all being said, they just look like a lot of fun!! I thought hell I'm almost 53 and I (personally) thought it was a good future plan seeing I only buy a new HD every 10 or more years .It's not an age thing, another guy I met was younger than me and was excited to buy one, traveled thousands of miles to buy it.
Because the wife said she would ride with me on a trike. I would rather ride with her than anyone else or no one at all. Talking to myself on a trip sucks.

I talk to myself all the time.
