I just recieved my latest issue of MCN (Motorcycle Consumer News) which had their latest performance index for about every bike imaginable. I knew my Champion didn't stop as well as before I triked it but these figures really suprised me. They showed a 2012 Gl1800 stopping from 60-0 mph in 127.4 feet. The only trike comparison I could make for a Gl1800 trike was with a CSC Cobra that stopped in 216.1 feet. That is a HUGH difference. Over 88 feet longer!
They tested a Tri-Glide that stopped in 143.2 feet. The Harley weighed 261 lbs. less.
I'd be interested in hearing your comments. I myself since triking over 2 years ago have allowed myself more following distance because I know I can't stop as fast as before.
