I agree 100%, if you drive both, you'll know which is the way to go.

Can-Am put the stability control and ABS on the Spyder for safety, and the electric variable power steering to make it user friendly.

Having had a Goldwing trike, I can say one thing for sure.... having two wheels in the back can lead to some really scary vehicle dynamics.

My trike had added rake to make it steer easier, unfortunately, it also led to the throttle cable pulling in more gas when you had the steering all the way to the right...... it caused me to have an accident.....

The best part is a Spyder is 5-10K LESS then a triked out Goldwing.
