Whats with all the tricycles?

Do they still, like, lean?

No lean on the two that I have seen though I don't know that there aren't versions which do. There is at least one kit to put two wheels up front which does lean.

My father in law tried the Voyager trike kit on His Roadking and did not like it so he sold it and bought a new Harley trike and loves it. Still riding at 82.    http://www.mtcvoyager.com/

I tried a Goldwing Trike for about 50 feet, stopped the engine and walked away. Had flashbacks of getting rolled over by my 85 250r atc eons ago. For the life of me I cannot figure out what is the safe turning speed on trikes.

There's an outfit in Wash. state that will make your Guzzi into a leaner like a MP3 for $10K but up to now it only does Harleys.  Your Guzzi could be it's prototype.  Forget who they're called.



Without leaning on a conventional trike it's just above walking speed when turning, whereas on my leaning MP3 it's comparable to your MC turning speed.

With my current situation with my Breva, I would agree to the prototype idea under the single condition of that I get to keep it.

I'm sure you would keep your bike but if it doesn't have a Tonti frame? I don't know if they could use it.  They need a good frame to mount to and a model that shares it with other models so other riders could apply the result to a similar Guzzi model bike.  Is your Breva a 750 or 1100?  I may be wrong about this.

  I see what you are getting at with everyone could benefit from having a prototype made. I have an 1100 Breva so there isn't much in the way of frame anyway.

Only one trike in my village....

and although they scare me to death, I have a slight soft spot for this one:

Ducati trike

[MotoG5]

No way I'm riding a three wheeler. Sorry, but if it gets to that I'm learning how to ride a bike with a sidecar.

No need to be sorry BC. The hack rig will do ya just fine. My NTX at 67yrs. will most likely be my last two wheeler. When I cant handle it anymore I personally like the Can-Am Spider. My wife had to go to three wheels a few years ago and went with an MP3 400 and never looked back. Point being that IF you are lucky enough to still being able to ride at all after 70 you will be going to something you can handle. I think its great that so many fun and cool options are available to do so.
