I am a mature short person who loves to ride. I have a Honda shadow 500 and love it.
As as I am maturing I want to go to a trike. I really want a Honda shadow but can't find one with a reverse.
husband says I have to have the reverse because of my maturity and shortness.
can anyone tell me what particular bikes come with reverse?
thank you
Welcome to Trike-Talk......:wave4:
Harleys...The Tri-Glide And the Freewheeler....
Some Honda conversions have a reverse ...
And you have to understand that the reverse is an assist not a full reverse...
The only trikes with reverse are the Tri-glide, GL1500, GL-1800, Freewheeler, Spyder and I am sure the Slingshot also.
How tall are you? I am 5'4" tall and rode a GL1500 trike.
The height issue becomes less of a problem with a trike ... no worries about holding the bike up. You should be able to handle a gl1500 trike very easily, and gain some comfort additions.
CSC trikes have a reverse as an option on most trikes they make... other trike companies do also I am sure...
My Can Am Spyder could reverse all day! [ATTACH=CONFIG]48481[/ATTACH]
I'm 5'2" and now no longer 'allowed' to use the Reverse on my Goldwing, as R runs off the Starter, and on older models the button can stick creating all Sorts of Grief and Condemnation. That being said, even at my size, if I'm on a level surface, my Goldwing trike in neutral is very easy to move by myself. I just have to learn to back in using neutral, or pick a pull through parking spot!
I started out on a Honda Shadow and LOVED that bike!
