well i traded in my 2005 venture, man i loved that bike. got a dealer converted gold wing lehman trike today. i am hoping i can keep the zen of motorcycle riding and learn not to try and lean. found a group of trike riders that meet every thursday and will hook up with them.

Welcome Doc. Number 1 rule, don't put your feet down when you come to a stop:no:<br />
<br />
I may be the only one that had that problem at first?

Hey Doc and welcome.<br />
<br />
I'm an AC-DC guy... ride both and find the transition from one to the other a breeze. No worries Mate. <img src="images/smilies/grin.gif" border="0" alt="" title="big grin" class="inlineimg" /><br />

(note to Nana...before you go there... forget I said the AC-DC part OK??)

Welcome aboard, docweb! You'll love it here. Be sure to post some pictures of your new ride as soon as you can.

To Reksul--loving the new avatar!

To Bryan--NO, you're not the only one who suffered the embarrassment of putting your feet down at a stop when beginning to ride a trike. How do I know? :innocent:

</div>:no: Nope, you aren't the only one - and I have no excuse! Only 2 wheeler I've been on since high school was the few hours at the MSF course, and THAT was 7 months before I got my trike. And yet, I STILL tried to put my feet down at stops most of the first season of riding! All better now (I think <img src="images/smilies/grin.gif" border="0" alt="" title="big grin" class="inlineimg" />)!!<br />

Tell your little group about us. I have been riding a trike 8 years now and still have not found another bunch to ride with.

 

[docweb]

well got my thousand miles in four days, no world record, but i feel i've got a good beginning on understanding some differences from the trike vs. bike. my wife went riding today on it for the first time and she loved it.

 

[docweb]

they might already be on the boards, anyone from kerrville tx probably is in that group

 

[j3jim]

Welcome aboard -- Yes, do keep your feet up at stops......

I never have put mine down, even as a biginning triker..........OH, and I have great bridge for sale too!!!!
