Nice trike Jdog. What is the sticker price? I'd like to have one myself. I also heard that trikes steer different from two wheelers,is this true?

Yep- they steer and don't countersteer. That said, since they lean they can also get up on two wheels fairly easily. Also, with two car tires in the back more weight and stronger brakes the braking biased is changed.

It's entirely worth it to take a trike class to learn the idiosyncracies

Yep,that's what I thought. It looks like the ride is comfortable and more relaxed. Thanks

Well the Burgman trike i got for 7400 OTD and the trike kit was 4500...

Yes they steering a lot different then a 2 wheeler...The trike doesnt lean much at all and yes i have had it on 2 wheels many times...you need to go slow around turn but something like the freeway you can do just about anything a car can... twisties are not to fun unless you are just cruising..

The best way to ride a trike it to treat it like a Big Curiser bike
Just sit back and enjoy the mellow ride...

I have had this thing up to 110MPH on striahgt aways..

The Burgman has a 638cc motor in it and is a automatic trans..

Hi Jdog,
That's a lot cheaper than what I guessed. Did you convert it yourself? What is your mpg? Thanks
