Last week my HD dealer let a guy that had been ridin' a two wheeler for 50 years take a new TG for a little test ride.They knew him very well and figured he would be just fine...Bada$$ old school Harley guy his whole life. It was almost very ugly. He could not turn it!!. Almost slammed into a row of used bikes sittin' out front..then almost drove it up over an island and curb. Kept puttin' his feet down to try and stop like he became brain dead about how to use the brake. The sales guy had to run to him and shut off the motor before something worse happened. He was very embarassed as a lot of people including his Buds were watching. They wish they had taped it to put on Youtube but then were glad they didn't cuz they didn't want to embarrass him further. It made for some interesting discussion about switching from 2 to tripod. Not very easy for a lot of people.
LOL, I went yesterday to practice at the dealer. They brought out a trike and drove it to the back parking lot. Wouldn't you know it, there was a 18-20 foot englosed trailer parked right in the middle of the parking lot. Oh, this lot is closed off just for their storage. Yes, I aimed right for that trailer after I said "I'm not going to hit that trailer". So, yes its embarrassing to find out you can't ride 3 wheels. I have to have alot of practice! Karen
