    Default Advantage of Three Wheels Over Two Wheels

    Can anyone add to this list?

    I'm creating a list for my two wheel riding friends some great reason's to convert to three wheels.

    #1.....One word: Stability, especially riding two up.
    #2.....No more stomping the blacktop every time you come to a stop.
    #3.....You got a 85% chance of staying up-right in a minor crash.
    #4.....Passengers feel secure, (see #1).
    #5.....No need for side and center stands.
    #6....."Laying it down" at critical times is not a option.
    #7.....You have a better recovery chance if you blow a tire at highway speeds.

    #8....

    Because I "look" cool on my trike! And I "feel" cool on my trike. Therefore, I "am" cool on my trike!

    A Trike has a much ​LARGER presents on the road. Which should make us easier to be seen by other drivers. Plus a Trike has more lights in the rear, which also should make us easier to be seen, especially at night.

    A Trike (or most of them) have a REVERSE, which makes backing out of a garage, down a driveway or out of a parking space easier and safer. We don't have to rely on our legs to hold the bike (2-wheeler) up while also trying to move it backwards.

    It's allowed me the ability to ride again, when I thought I'd have to give it up.

    You don't have to worry about dropping your bike when you run over squirrels. You just run 'em over!

    If you are having to still and wait on something/someone for a while - a trike is a comfortable, level seat as opposed to trying to sit comfortably on a "slant" - like a 2-wheeler rests on the kickstand.

    Rear tires and brakes last almost forever. I've got over 30,000 on my Champion S/A kit and the tires look almost new and the trike tech said the brakes have over 60% left.
