I haven't ridden for a while now. I don't really trust myself with a big bike any more. I'd be worried I'd drop it. My best ex riding buddy has got back into bikes and bought himself a Honda Fury. I know, but he likes them and its pretty enough.

Im thinking of getting back into trikes but I'm not paying 20k for a Wing trike as much as i love them so thinking about a can am. i doubt anyone here has ridden one but just asking in the off chance they have.

The basic one, a 600cc twin is 10 grand new. I would buy second hand but rare as rockinghorse poo.

30 years ago id have just gone out to the garage and built a trike but sadly those days are long gone.

Sounds like you need something like a Triumph Speed 400 or Scrambler 400. Way better looking, and probably better performance than a Honda Fury.

Remember kids, bikes aren't like lego. You can't easily take a part from one bike and then fit it to another.

What about a super scooter? They can be a real hoot and very easy for the older gentleman who isn't as good on his pins as he once was to get on and off.
