A brief look.  Check out these reverse trikes.

While watching the 2023 Tour de France, I notice there are several of these Yamaha Nikens running around as camera / escort bikes.  Pretty cool! :thumb: :cool: :wink:  Would love to try one.  Sort of like a Piaggio MP3...

Yep I’d ride one and I’d also try out a leaning trike, cool engineering.

Less of a motorbike and more of a car, my pick is the Morgan 3-wheeler. I read they're coming out with an electric 'Super 3' as well though I prefer the looks of the v-twin powered units.

Every now and again I run my wife's F3-S Spyder (the three holer sport model) down AZ88 and back. That's the road to Tortilla Flat and one of the twistiest in AZ.  SUPER tight with lots of 15 mph corners with hundred foot drop offs (no rails of any kind anywhere) and it's a total riot.  That thing hauls the mail and corners like nobody's business.

My MP3 500 would be fun on that road.  Front independent front suspension.  Loads of torque. :thumb:

The Morgan has a classic look, no argument there.  I have a Vanderhall, which is also more of a car than bike (but still plated as a bike).  It hauls ass and corners like rails.  But practically...on a vehicle that low, going 40 mph is as much fun as 60 or 80.  It's a go-kart.

My 2020 CanAm Ryker was a lot of fun.
6,005 miles in 5 months, including a 1,105 mile 6 day trip Nevada-Arizona-Utah
However, high RPM cruising and 33 MPG were negatives
