This film is one of my all-time favorites, it lets me know there are some sane decent people over there among all the loonies.

My wife likes that yellow one, but she would like for it to have a back support. The way it is in the picture reminds me of the old farm tractors.

Watching "The Straight Story" is on my short list of things to do. Someone else told me they liked it as well. . ..

But in the mean time "2 Days in Paris" isn't bad either if you get a chance. :D

I had a Can am trike back in 10/11. It was the touring model. My son and I rode it to California and back, towed a trailer. It's an amazing ride, very stable and quick around corners. Great fun on gravel roads. It has a computer controlled program that brakes the outside front wheel if there is a danger of tipping on turns. The back seat is very comfe, I kept falling asleep when my son was driving. I had to sell it when I retired. After riding a wide front trike I would NEVER waste my money on a wide rear trike, they look very unstable, just waiting to fall over when u brake IMHO. I also have a tadpole recumbent trike that you pedal made by Cattrike. Rides like a sports car, take turns on 2 weels. Goes over 40 mph down hills.

2019 Can-Am "Ryker"

This is Can-Am's Newest 3 wheel member. Smaller, cheaper, more colorful than its' older big brother and sister. I haven't seen one up front and personal yet but plan too as we get closer to Spring. After riding my friends standard size Can-Am last year I'm anxious to sit on this Smaller version. Closer to the ground too. Hmm, do I like that idea or not? :roll: Oh yeah...and the Ryker goes in reverse just like it's siblings.
Anywho, This is Ryker! 3 wheels to view along with a fun review



Below Part II (? Not sure) Look too @ the 9 min mark, Another 3 Wheeler rolls up 8) Wots it?
What a Great location to ride (anything) on such a gorgeous day. But, but...Where is this?
NOTE: After you click on the below video you'll have to click on the youtube underscored words (forgot what it says) but click that ;) BOOM! Showtime! Let's Ride!!

Beyond Cool Man! as he say's . . .. 8)

If I was on that thing I'd want to put snow tires up front and zig zag all day long! :D

I wonder how it would work trying to do hill climbs or in the dirt. :roll: Interesting thought. :geek:

Yes, a diff 3 wheeler. Wider than a Can-Am heh? Not I. But sure is lovely to look at. Any comment on the Ryker above? Have you seen one yet?

If that Can-Am had narrower track and tilted it wouldn't be half bad.

How well will a CVT cope with 900 cc triple? Seems to me this thing should be able to put some serious torque to that back wheel.

I also found it a bit funny how impressed he was with the smooth takeoff and transmission - almost like he had never been on a scooter.

Will be fine, cars have CVT.
In fact... CVT was first used in cars.

Yeah - I thought of that later. And then I thought that auto CVTs must be different in that my son's Toyota Corolla has 75000 miles and has not had any transmission work. All interesting.

Oh my!! I am drooling! Unbelievable price too! ...but New York?? Definitely would need to be shipped.

WN, do you know if it is still available? My wife really likes it. However, we have no way of checking it out. How far is it from you?
