i bought a 2005 honda goldwing trike last year. i take it grocery shopping in the dead of winter was surprised at the heater vents really work the heated seats and grips are super nice/i live up by the canadian border in central washingtn, lots of snow. handles decent enough in the ice and snow. i ride it damn near everyday/ had 30,000 miles on it when i bought it. now has almost 50000. no more harleys for me. all i have owned for over 50 years. no more tipping over. handles like a dream. now to my shop and get out the airbrush. snow white is to much white. but i think it is a great toy

Maybe during night time, you could pull off into a dark area and see just how easily all the controls can be located? Most Harley Trikes are missing the mark on 'Ease of Use' after sunset on dark roads. I suspect Harley isn't the only maker who is overlooking this. The automotive designers have solved this, so we don't need to re-invent the wheel. Thanks...

I had.a Motor Trike kit installed by Superior Trikes, Florence, SC. They knowingly delivered my trike to me with numerous issues and 2 dangerous issues = did not torque down handle bars and they almost came off while riding and reverse battery was wrong size and installed incorrectly which melted the terminals. If Superior Trikes didn’t know all of the 12 issues prior to delivery then they shouldn’t be doing any installations at all! I have pictures, videos, text msgs, tel nbrs, email addresses etc. for anyone to see. Motor Trike corporate told me I had to have the very dealer that did the shit installation repair the issues or warranty would be void. Is that legal? Sounds like coercion to me & most

I have plans to build an electric tricycle, not starting from a motor bike but starting from a pedal bike, I do wonder if a lot of the physics will be similar, I do worry about stability, how easy it'll be to steer and if it'll tip easily at the speeds I am aiming for. I can adjust the fork angle by having a larger wheel in the front than the ones in the back, a 24/29 wheels will essentially add five degrees of forward tilt to the front fork. I have no idea if that'll be beneficial or detrimental to handling.
