So I'm very new to motorcycles altogether. Considering a trike or reverse trike as a starter. I think the HD Freewheeler looks awesome, but that's just not in the budget.
I gotta admit, at first glance I thought the Ryker was uglier than sin - but it's grown on me the more I look into it. Kinda reminds me of the Ruger LCR, I went from "that's the ugliest gun I've seen in my life" to being my daily CCW for years.
But anyway as I'm reading more, I'm wondering if the Spyder might not be more for me? Of course the cost is more, but still in reach for me. The power steering is mainly what does it, I keep reading that it's easier to handle than the Ryker. I'd be driving around a rural area mostly, lots of narrow winding roads with quite a few hills, with a bit of town riding for my average daily commute.
I'm hopefully going to head to a dealer, maybe later today even, to get a look-see. If I'm lucky I might get to tool around the parking lot...but without an M endorsement I'm not counting on it.
