Give me a few weeks and I can give you a ride report, but I know Calman on here also has one so he can give you one now if he sees this post.
I am interested in a Honda 750 Trike. I have never ridden a trike, but have ridden a Buell Blast (500). We won't ride double on the trike. My husband rides a Yamaha VMax. Is there any concerns with this small a trike. I am a little afraid of a bigger bike. Thanks, I really, really appreciate your help.

Hi Reader . skuuter's wife rides a 750 trike and seems to love it! You can see pictures in the albums on his profile page, and also in just about any thread he has started. They ride their trikes together all over the mountains of Tennessee.

Welcome READER1! Glad you have joined us.Great folks and info here.I have not ridden a 750,but they sure look nice.RIDE SAFE
Welcome Reader1.
I've got 24K enjoyable miles on my 2009 Shadow 750 Aero Trike. Rides real smooth, gets 40-42 MPG, can easily cruise 65-75 MPH, is very easy to manuver. MANUAL reverse is STANDARD-there is no option. I ordered my Shadow with passenger backrest and luggage rack as well as the optional onboard compresser for adjusting rear-end ride.
You're not going to win any 0-60 contests but with the 4 Degree Mod from the shadow750aero website you can improve initial "pick up". The gas tank has a CA EPA fill neck that makes filling the gas tank an all day chore unless you do a neck punch as described on aforementioned website. (This mod lets you displace air with gas at a vastly faster rate.)
I've got several after-market items on my Shadow:
a. Extra unswtiched 12-volt outlet in trunk for charging netbook, extra MP3 player, curling iron, coffee maker, cellphone while on the road or in campground.
b. Memphis Batwing windshield with triple pouch storage.
c.
J&M 2003B 2-Up CB/Weather/InterComm radio with MP3 plug-in.
d. Switched 12-volt outlet on handlebar for running GPS on the road.
e. Custom tank bib from threemuttscustom.com.
f. MT will not install a trailer hitch but I had one manufactured to pull a 110 LB Cyclemate Lil' Clipper cargo trailer. Great for shoppng or weekend trips with GF.
g. Fold-up driver floorboards (due to arrive today).
h. Flip-up passenger armrests from ultimateseats.ca.
i. Handlebar clock.
Most times when I stop and there are other cycles around I end up talking about the 750 since most folks say "I didn't know you could trike a 750".
Others just smile and nod.
Got some photos in my profile album. Richard Graham is the guy to talk to at MT in Troup, TX. Got questions-fire away.
