Finally Picked Up Hopper

[Hopper]

Picked Hopper up yesterday from Pensacola Motorsports. Traded my 2012 Suzuki DL 1000 V-Strom.
I never rode a reverse trike and was pleasantly surprised how easy the transition from two to three wheels, no shifting, and no hand brake was. I rode Hopper through city traffic and back roads for a total of 60 plus miles. It was hot out and I expected the fan to kick on more than the three times it did at some longer stop lights. The mirrors did not cause me a problem and the ride overall was fantastic! I went out earlier this morning when there was a nip in the air and yea, the smile just won’t go away. Got about 40 miles before the 200 mile break in is done. Will ride a bit more aggressive and try out the interstate.
Now to try and post a picture

Congrats...

It looks like you are one of the lucky ones that were able to relax and slide right into the three wheel ryding without the usual 300-500 miles. It does get better and more fun the more you ryde....enjoy. :thumbup:

While it did have a learning curve for me, almost 12,000 miles later I can't remember having so much fun. Enjoy your new ride!
