I ride a 113ci V-twin Yamaha, with a CSC conversion, custom paint, Vance & Hines headers and loud pipes, and my wife rides a box stock semi-automatic Spyder RT that is so quit (that way you can hear my trike better!). Now which trike is better.......ask me and it's no contest, my Yamaha conversion!! Ask my wife, it's no contest, the Spyder RT!
So, we ride what give us pleasure and anything else doesn't matter. It may take a few shots to get the right trike, but when you do it's a big smile and miles of open road ahead!
