Let's start sharing some first hand experience with these new three wheeled wonder machines. My trip today was to the Jones Creek OHV area near Vancouver, WA. The single tracks are still closed for winter (not that I'd try them), but there's a compacted, graded, gravel road with some good inclines. The XT did great! I was very happy with the suspension soaking up 2"+ bumps comfortably. I have no love for washboard, but I think the Canyon will handle it. Conditions were pretty wet, see picture. I noticed minimal rear wheel slip on firm sections even climbing around corners. When I pulled out of some deeper, looser gravel, I did feel some spin, but I didn't notice traction control intervening. Made it out easy. I did some standing on the pegs and it was a commanding view. I also tried shifting weight back toward the passenger seat. Didn't notice a change. My settings were PS Max, Engine Normal, and VSS Normal. I like the PS Max since long curvy trips get athletic on the arms. I don't notice any darty-ness. I think their belt will wear faster off the pavement, a deflector covering the top of the bottom of the belt would be useful. I only spent about 20 minutes on the gravel because giant dump trucks were flying up and down too. What are you experiencing?
