I guess that they missed their grasp at the brass ring...

I don't get the rationally of a leaning Trike. I get on my two wheeler every now and then, Because i do miss the lean factor with a bike , But on a trike don't think so, Besides if it takes most Spyder owners [new to bikes] 5 hundred miles to get the hang of the Spyder, I would think a leaning Trike will get them in deep trouble long before that learning curve is up.
Just my option.:doorag:

Have you been keeping track of the complexity of the "leaner" that BRP is developing? :yikes:
Harley had a great idea that was just a little bit too far outside of their comfort zone...

Someone in Belgium is marketing an HD with a "Spider" style/type front end....I'm not sure wether it leans or not ???????......Mike

Yes Ive seen the Q4's before and the Mamuth is a huge rear end.

There's a couple of sites that give you the full list of Trikes and Quadracycles.
