This isn't very nice.

I agree 100%.
To me it is no different than me choosing to ride a sportbike and my sister choosing to ride a Harley.

That is what I was thinking. 3-wheelers are rather easy to roll.

I wouldn't classify them as an auto or a motorcycle since you do need a special endorsement to operate one.

My thing is this... at what point do you draw the line. There was a trike out made by some company. Can't remember, it had a ford steering wheel, windows, and a auto trans. But still they talked about the wind in your hair etc. I call BS.

I myself hate trikes. My uncle I cut slack cause of his handicap. Its understandable. Otherwise, NO. Too hard to hold and/or ride the bike in the wind. Too bad!
