Default trikes

Something else to maybe think about,I know when I decided to buy a trike when I retired a few months ago it was a big decision.I test rode many brands of conversions. Yes the Gold Wings were very nice! But when I checked with several Honda dealerships about working on them more than once I was told yes we work on them from the seat forward.Not trying to upset anyone but after 45 years of riding and 30 plus motorcycles I have learned ANY machine can fail! We ended up buying a HD FREEWEELER because it was easy to ride,as far as we were concerned looked great and no matter where your at there is a dealership.Also since they are titled as a trike out of the factory resale as far as loans etc can be a little easier. Good luck with your purchase and be safe!

Thank you to all who responded. I will certainly take the suggestion to ride one before buying. Will be calling you Frank.
