Check out this Road King conversion to a "Spyder"! Big difference with this bike is that the front has independent suspension and hydraulics to raise the bike from a 45 degree angle upright! Awesome forward thinking-Visit their website: www.tiltingmotorworks.com

Have no connection to this company, just thought it was different and might be cool as another alternative to the 3 wheel minded.
Just looks WRONG, what with the nacelle just hangin' out front with no fender underneath it. I'm sure that folks with difficulties might find it acceptable, but I have to agree with Krazy8's up there: Put my extra wheel on the rear end....
I hope they succeed, and succeed big. When the time comes that I can't hold a large touring bike up, this can be an answer that will still allow me to "feel" a very important element to my enjoyment of riding: The bike leaning into the turns. Trikes won't give you that, neither will the Can-Am Spyder.

About half way through the video on the right you will see a frontend and fenders. The view without the front fender is most likely for demonstration only.

If/when I get to the point I can't handle two wheels I'd go for something like that. I like the fact that you can still lean it although I believe there is some training wheel looking set up you can get that still allows you to lean the bike and have the additional advantage of a trike type setup.
