The three wheeled Spyder made me ask why. I asked why again after riding one.
Actually I think 4 wheels makes more sense than 3.

Reminds me of an ATV that I saw a few years ago. The dude put what looked like 22 or 24" wheels and low profile tires on a racing ATV.

I'd like a 4wd Spyder with dif locks and a winch on the front + a low range for rock crawling. Forget the truck...I'd take my ATV Spyder hunting !

Why not???? Someone some where will want one. He may have gotten in on the ground floor of something, who knows! I have Spyder and love it. To anyone that has bad ankles as I do, or has had leg or hip injuries, it keeps them in the wind. Granted, not for everyone, but doesn't mean it won't be a great thing for someone else. Innovation....its GREAT...look whats happened to the phone  |

I'd like to mention that Devl and Rtaz offered the CanAm to me to ride a number of times at Inzane. I declined but not because I didn't like the CanAm and the three wheeled concept. I had three wheels (Valk sidecar rig).
I declined because I will not ride other people's bikes. It's something that I just can't force myself to do. I mention this only to tell you of the generosity of Devl and Rtaz.
The CanAm eventually might be the answer for most as they age. I well know the feeling.

If it has four wheels,...can it still be a motorcycle?

It's a crotch-car. If it doesn't lean or can stand up on it's own then it's not a motorcycle* *Sidecar rigs not withstanding. |

If I was to do it, it would be because I couldn't ride two wheels anymore, I would not need the Goldwing quad, but the sky is the limit if it means staying in the wind. There are many alternatives to two wheels. A convertible, to me, while nice, is not one of them. I would like to have one, though, I'm kind of a car nut, too.  Hoser |

It needs the rear end extended about two feet, widened about one and a half feet and lowered about 6 inches! |
