Quite upsetting, but how can you deprive someone with non working legs a CBR400?

How could you offer the chance to someone with non-working legs to think that they might somehow get the 'experience' of a CBR400 on that .. very cruel.
[edit]Just checked and indeed, it is not-a two front-wheels one that leans, which would make more sense.[/edit]

At least the usual cruiser-fare used can hardly go around corners anyway.

As ever, I'd suggest some kinda of kit car, probably a seven-style one, would much better replicate the 'CBR' experience. Especially if we're talking an ultra-light bike engined one.

Hmm, true.

Personally I don't like trikes, but I can see why some people build them after they get injured.

I can only understand if they're the sort that don't really ride bikes for any of the reasons I do - they don't enjoy the handling or the practicality, for instance.

I loves our trike, but I am not too sure about this.

The overriding good thing about NC29s is their handling, their cornering ability. They are made for twisties!

To mutilate one and cause it to forever by vertical, is sacrilege. Thumbs Down

I like some trikes, but that is an awful waste of a good bike. Bet it's dull as dishwater to ride, I mean drive.
