Amen regarding the width. Pay attention to that wider rear stance. I think I'm used to it but I've been known to take my turn in the dumb barrel occasionally.

300 miles in and getting more comfortable with corners and maneuvering. Asking myself why I didn't do this years ago ! even backing up without reverse is a breeze. No more worrying about balancing while backing. Wife is still learning to get on and off. Have learned that the key to cornering is to power out of the turn. No coasting through, drive the front wheel through under power and it's like power steering. We can't wait to take a trip and see how it will pack. Wife says its a smoother ride than the Limited. No about that Road Zep seat.

Welcome to the 3 wheel world. It takes some learning everyone is different just take your time you will have it in no time.
I switched last September. Read everything I could find about riding a trike talked to people thought I was ready when it came in. When drove out of the dealer on to the main road my first thought was what hell did I do this for? After a year and 10,000+miles we have more fun every time we go out. Most importantly for me anyway is my wife loves it and wants to ride more.
