Hello the fire!

[muleman1]

New member here from Lake of the Ozarks land. I've been a "lurker" for a while but decided to join so that I can see the pics. Still trying to sell the wife on getting a trike....wish me luck.

[vstrommer]

Good luck on getting that new trike and a big welcome from Minnesota....

Good luck Mr Muleman. Plan on bringing her to the rally in Eureka Springs and she will be sold on getting a trike after she meets all the good folks and their trikes.

Welcome Muleman, wife and I have been triking for about 15 years now. She enjoys it as much as I do. We put over 120,000 miles on our first trike (99 RK with motor trike kit). Bought a 2010 Triglide Ultra two years ago in August and have about 34,000 miles on it. We live in Climax Springs, Mo. Good luck.

Welcome Muleman to TT. from s/w Ga. <br />
She will come around eventually.

</div>Welcome to TT - glad you found us. If I did it correctly, it looks like a "mere" 168 miles from your area to Eurika Springs. If you don't have her convinced before then, mtn rider's idea sounds good to me. Bring her over to "meet the folks" - she'll be convinced for sure... <img src="images/smilies/wave4.gif" border="0" alt="" title="Wave4" class="inlineimg" />

Welcome to Trike Talk from Central VA.

Welcome to Trike Talk Muleman1. We were over in Camdenton looking at an RV a few months ago. Nice Ride if we stay off I-44 coming from just south of Joplin in Anderson.
When the weather warms up Gloria and I might could ride over and give her a close up view of our '04 Goldwing Champion conversion, maybe even little test ride.

Welcome Muleman, you have a great HD dealer over there, take her shopping and let her sit on one for awhile.

WELCOME to TRIKE TALK....if You have, or even if You haven't gotten a Trike by June, head over to the TRIKE TALK RALLY IN EUREKA SPRINGS, ARKANSAS...!!!.....Your Wife will get interested for sure then.....

[trikeleader]

Welcome, as Skuuter said, bring the wife to the rally and she will be convinced you need a trike.

Thanks Ozarkryder, I'll trade you a tritoon ride. Just out of curiousity since I've never riden a cycle....when you get licensed in Mo. do you have to test on a two wheeler?

Thanks Ozarkryder, I'll trade you a tritoon ride. Just out of curiousity since I've never riden a cycle....when you get licensed in Mo. do you have to test on a two wheeler?

A few ways to go about this: You can take the knowledge test and get your permit at your local license office then enroll in the Motorcycle Safety Foundation beginners riding course. They provide the 2 wheelers to learn on and assume you have no riding experience. Pass that course and you go back to the fee office to get a motorcycle endorsement without taking the in the saddle test. The "M" endorsement is good for vehicles with less than 3 wheels on the road.
Most insurance companies will also give a 10% discount for taking the training.

You can also take the knowledge test, get the permit and take the skills test on your own. It is not hard,especially on a trike. If you take the skills test on the trike there is a "WW" restriction, holder is limited on the "M" endorsement to 3 wheels only.

If you have a friend that will let you take the wife on a ride on a trike you may have half the battle won.
