I probably get me one when I hit 80 years old, more or less. Until then, I'll keep dragging the floorboards.

Not to jack this thread...

But that is the biggest reason to keep the passenger in place, until you put the bike on the stand. Then allow them to dis-mount.

some day i will have one . but not for a few more year's it is just like anything else you got to get use to it.the people that i know that has them really love them and three wheel's has been around for a very long time.most of us love's our two wheel's but as we get older trying to keep a 700 pound bike up get's a little tougher in time .but with a three wheeler we our still in the wind. and that is what matter's.compare thru the year's they have made them a whole lot better and for storage you got to amit they got that covered.

Guess I will chime in on this. I am the lady Rhonda was speaking of with the TriGlide. I am only 5'1 on a good day and weigh 120. I have short arms and small hands. I am having NO problem with the steering on this bike. For the record, the frame and front end is built entirely at the Harley Touring plant in York, PA. The frame is built to be a trike and is not converted. Then it is shipped to Lehman in SD for the rear end. It has a steering damper which gets rid of the front end wobble and a raked triple tree. I have been on two wheels for 3 yrs and have had no problem with the change. Best thing I ever did and now I can go touring along side my hubby and not on the back!!! I don't make a good back seat "driver".
