Default Still Deciding

Hello Everyone, I have been partially paralyzed since back surgery about 1 1/2 years ago. I rode motorcycles when I was young, but that was many moons ago. I have been interested in getting on the road in the near future, but I am still indecisive as to whether I should get a CAN-AM, Harley Trike, or have someone build me a bike from scratch.

Well the shopping is certainly the best part of this whole process! I've ridden the conventional trikes, and they honestly handle pretty poorly in comparison to the Spyders. You also have the potential of the SE 5 tranny; which depending on what's not working, might just tip the tides... My Missus and I shopped for three years before we found out about these beauties, We looked at pretty near all of the options that we could find. (Lehmann, Motortrike, Factoy Tri-Glides, California Sidecar), and at least with my buggered-up left leg, Can Am hit the spot!

Good morning! If you're open to all kinds of three-wheeled vehicles, check out the classified section of the Brothers of the Third Wheel website: BTW Homepage No Spyders that I've ever seen but alot of fine trikes can be found if you're open to having your two wheels behind you. A week and a half ago, I just got a new RTS SE5 (Timeless Black) and just LOVE it!!! The best of luck to you in your search for your perfect ride!

Gee... Do you think that a couple of us should head out to their site and see if they're open to the idea of "Y"? (Or maybe "Y" not? )

Maybe they've already heard of us!
