| Just bought a 2011 silver wing 600 trike with 17000 miles. It is much different than a two-wheeler. Due to health reasons had to switch over. I find I will definitely like it. Hope to learn alot on this site, and provide input when I can. |

| Welcome to the BEST SWing forum on the net chapliainabel. Lots of info here and people ready and able to help. I have an 08 SWing that I had converted over to a trike and love it. It's a Motor Trike conversion and I had it done at a local shop that Motor Trike has qualified techs to do the work. It took a while to get used to it but now it's almost second nature riding it. I only lost about 5 mpg on the road but a bit more in town with stop and go traffic. Still I have no complaints as it gets better mileage than my pickup. LOL. I think the "hardest" part was getting used to steering it rather than leaning it. Roundabouts and intersections were the trickiest. But now they are second nature. Take it easy on those until you get used to them and you'll be OK. |
